In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
afs: Fix incorrect free in candidate cleanup in afs_lookup_server()
Fix afs_lookup_server() to not free an existing server's endpoint state
when cleaning up a candidate server. The candidate record doesn't have an
endpoint state yet at this point, so the free for that can just be removed.
