AI-suggested

A fix for this vulnerability has been implemented in the Linux kernel. Users should apply the official kernel updates that include the patch for this issue.

Description

A session leak vulnerability in the Linux kernel's SMB server component (ksmbd) was fixed by correcting the session registration process in ksmbd_session_register(). The flaw involved a failure to properly remove and free session references when session registration failed, leading to a session leak.
