[PATCH] cifs: fix incorrect use of list iterator after the loop

From: Xiaomeng Tong
Date: Sun Mar 20 2022 - 10:03:51 EST


The bug is here:
if (!tcon) {
resched = true;
list_del_init(&ses->rlist);
cifs_put_smb_ses(ses);

Because the list_for_each_entry() never exits early (without any
break/goto/return inside the loop), the iterator 'ses' after the
loop will always be an pointer to a invalid struct containing the
HEAD (&pserver->smb_ses_list). As a result, the uses of 'ses' above
will lead to a invalid memory access.

The original intention should have been to walk each entry 'ses' in
'&tmp_ses_list', delete '&ses->rlist' and put 'ses'. So fix it with
a list_for_each_entry_safe().

Fixes: 3663c9045f51a ("cifs: check reconnects for channels of active tcons too")
