CVE-2026-31710

by ·

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

smb: client: fix dir separator in SMB1 UNIX mounts

When calling cifs_mount_get_tcon() with SMB1 UNIX mounts,
@cifs_sb->mnt_cifs_flags needs to be read or updated only after
calling reset_cifs_unix_caps(), otherwise it might end up with missing
CIFS_MOUNT_POSIXACL and CIFS_MOUNT_POSIX_PATHS bits.

This fixes the wrong dir separator used in paths caused by the missing
CIFS_MOUNT_POSIX_PATHS bit in cifs_sb_info::mnt_cifs_flags.
