If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 649c15c7691e9b13cbe9bf6c65c365350e056067 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo <cascardo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 7 Mar 2023 14:37:07 -0300 Subject: net: avoid double iput when sock_alloc_file fails From: Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo <cascardo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 649c15c7691e9b13cbe9bf6c65c365350e056067 upstream. When sock_alloc_file fails to allocate a file, it will call sock_release. __sys_socket_file should then not call sock_release again, otherwise there will be a double free.
