What to Know

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

libceph: remove debugfs files before client teardown

ceph_destroy_client() tears down the monitor client before removing

the per-client debugfs files. A concurrent read of the monmap debugfs

file can enter monmap_show() after ceph_monc_stop() has freed

monc->monmap, triggering a use-after-free.

Remove the debugfs files before stopping the OSD and monitor clients.

debugfs_remove() drains active handlers and prevents new accesses, so

the debugfs callbacks can no longer race the rest of client teardown. (NVD)

What to Do

Monitor Linux's web page for any future patch releases.
