CVE-2025-68285
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: fix potential use-after-free in have_mon_and_osd_map()
The wait loop in __ceph_open_session() can race with the client receiving a new monmap or osdmap shortly after the initial map is received. Both ceph_monc_handle_map() and handle_one_map() install a new map immediately after freeing the old one
under client->monc.mutex and client->osdc.lock respectively, but because neither is taken in have_mon_and_osd_map() it's possible for client->monc.monmap->epoch and client->osdc.osdmap->epoch arms in
condition to dereference an already freed map. This happens to be reproducible with generic/395 and generic/397 with KASAN enabled:

Rewrite the wait loop to check the above condition directly with client->monc.mutex and client->osdc.lock taken as appropriate. While at it, improve the timeout handling (previously mount_timeout could be exceeded in case wait_event_interruptible_timeout() slept more than once) and access client->auth_err under client->monc.mutex to match how it's set in finish_auth().
monmap_show() and osdmap_show() now take the respective lock before accessing the map as well.
