Thus, kfree() is called\nwith an invalid pointer.  This patch removes the need for advancing the\npointer so kfree() is called with correct memory pointer.\n\nSteps to reproduce:\n\n1. Create snapshots on a cephfs volume (I've 63 snaps in my testcase)\n\n2. Add cephfs mount to fstab\n$ echo \"samba-fileserver@.files=/volumes/datapool/stuff/3461082b-ecc9-4e82-8549-3fd2590d3fb6      /mnt/test/stuff   ceph     acl,noatime,_netdev    0       0\" >> /etc/fstab\n\n3. Reboot the system\n$ systemctl reboot\n\n4. Check if it's really mounted\n$ mount | grep stuff\n\n5. List snapshots (expected 63 snapshots on my system)\n$ ls /mnt/test/stuff/.snap\n\nNow ls hangs forever and the kernel log shows the oops."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/ceph/crypto.c"],"versions":[{"version":"bb80f7618832d26f7e395f52f82b1dac76223e5f","lessThan":"8c9af7339de419819cfc641d551675d38ff99abf","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"101841c38346f4ca41dc1802c867da990ffb32eb","lessThan":"e258ed369c9e04caa7d2fd49785d753ae4034cb6","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"101841c38346f4ca41dc1802c867da990ffb32eb","lessThan":"bc8dedae022ce3058659c3addef3ec4b41d15e00","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"3145b2b11492d61c512bbc59660bb823bc757f48","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"493479af8af3ab907f49e99323777d498a4fbd2b","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/ceph/crypto.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.17","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.17","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.70","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.10","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.19","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.12.42","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.70"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.17","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.10"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.17","versionEndExcluding":"6.19"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.15.10"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.16.1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8c9af7339de419819cfc641d551675d38ff99abf"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e258ed369c9e04caa7d2fd49785d753ae4034cb6"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bc8dedae022ce3058659c3addef3ec4b41d15e00"}],"title":"ceph: fix oops due to invalid pointer for kfree() in parse_longname()","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
