Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
cifs: fix potential oops in cifs_oplock_break<br />
<br />
With deferred close we can have closes that race with lease breaks,<br />
and so with the current checks for whether to send the lease response,<br />
oplock_response(), this can mean that an unmount (kill_sb) can occur<br />
just before we were checking if the tcon->ses is valid. See below:<br />

To fix this change the ordering of the checks before sending the oplock_response<br />
to first check if the openFileList is empty.
