A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's SMB server component caused a tree connection leak in the smb2_tree_connect() function. This issue was resolved by fixing the handling of tree connections when the function ksmbd_iov_pin_rsp() fails, ensuring proper disconnection of the new tree connection to prevent resource leaks. The vulnerability affects specific versions of linux-hwe-edge kernel releases. The CVSS score is 5.5, indicating a medium severity with impact primarily on availability.
