[PATCH] ksmbd: fix reference count leak in smb_check_perm_dacl()

From: Xin Xiong
Date: Fri Apr 29 2022 - 04:14:11 EST


The issue happens in a specific path in smb_check_perm_dacl(). When
"id" and "uid" have the same value, the function simply jumps out of
the loop without decrementing the reference count of the object
"posix_acls", which is increased by get_acl() earlier. This may
result in memory leaks.

Fix it by decreasing the reference count of "posix_acls" before
jumping to label "check_access_bits".
