CVE-2023-54258
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: fix potential oops in cifs_oplock_break
With deferred close we can have closes that race with lease breaks, and so with the current checks for whether to send the lease response, oplock_response(), this can mean that an unmount (kill_sb) can occur just before we were checking if the tcon->ses is valid. See below:

Vulnerabilidad en kernel Linux (CIFS) con acceso remoto sin autenticación (AV:N/PR:N). La condición de carrera permite crash (oops) del kernel, causando DoS. El deferred close racing con lease breaks puede escalarse a ejecución de código kernel.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
