Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> afs: Fix the setting of the server responding flag<br /> <br /> In afs_wait_for_operation(), we set transcribe the call responded flag to<br /> the server record that we used after doing the fileserver iteration loop -<br /> but it&amp;#39;s possible to exit the loop having had a response from the server<br /> that we&amp;#39;ve discarded (e.g. it returned an abort or we started receiving<br /> data, but the call didn&amp;#39;t complete).<br /> <br /> This means that op-&gt;server might be NULL, but we don&amp;#39;t check that before<br /> attempting to set the server flag.
