In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: fix session state check in reconnect to avoid use-after-free issue
Don't collect exiting session in smb2_reconnect_server(), because it
will be released soon.
Note that the exiting session will stay in server->smb_ses_list until
it complete the cifs_free_ipc() and logoff() and then delete itself
from the list.
