commitee12595147upstream. This code calls fd_install() which gives the userspace access to the fd. Then if copy_info_records_to_user() fails it calls put_unused_fd(fd) but that will not release it and leads to a stale entry in the file descriptor table. Generally you can't trust the fd after a call to fd_install(). The fix is to delay the fd_install() until everything else has succeeded. Fortunately it requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN to reach this code so the security impact is less.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
