In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

smb: client: clean up failed cached directory opens

open_cached_dir() sends CREATE and QUERY_INFO as a compound request. If
the CREATE succeeds but a later command returns an error, the function
must retain the CREATE FID so common cleanup can issue SMB2_close(). It
also must not treat a response error as a valid CREATE.

Validate the CREATE response before using its fields, record the FIDs, and
mark the handle open before handling errors from later compound commands.
Move the -EREMCHG reconnect handling before response validation so a
missing response does not hide the reconnect request. Count the handle
when it is marked open; confirmed close responses decrement the counter,
while existing close retry behavior remains best effort on transport
failures.
