In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix UAF in decryption with multichannel
After commit f7025d861694 ("smb: client: allocate crypto only for
primary server") and commit b0abcd65ec54 ("smb: client: fix UAF in
async decryption"), the channels started reusing AEAD TFM from primary
channel to perform synchronous decryption, but that can't done as
there could be multiple cifsd threads (one per channel) simultaneously
accessing it to perform decryption.
This fixes the following KASAN splat when running fstest generic/249
with 'vers=3.1.1,multichannel,max_channels=4,seal' against Windows
Server 2022:
