## Overview

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ksmbd: fix UAF issue in ksmbd_tcp_new_connection()

The race is between the handling of a new TCP connection and
its disconnection. It leads to UAF on `struct tcp_transport` in
ksmbd_tcp_new_connection() function.

## Affected

- `linux_kernel >= 5.15.0, < 5.15.149`
- `linux_kernel >= 5.16.0, < 6.1.75`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.2.0, < 6.6.14`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.7.0, < 6.7.2`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `linux_kernel 6.7.2`
