+Subject: [PATCH] Avoid duplicate subrequest finalization
+
+Previously, if a subrequest was posted twice, it could be finalized in
+both calls, excessively reducing r->main->count and potentially leading
+to a use-after-free.
+
+The fix is to avoid posting a request if it's already posted.  Also,
+as a hardening measure, r->write_event_handler is now reset to a no-op
+handler during active subrequest finalization.
+
+The problem manifests itself in ngx_http_ssi_filter_module during
+unbuffered proxying.  If a subrequest is created for an SSI include
+statement while the main request has some data postponed by another
+include, this subrequest becomes double-posted when the main request
+data is flushed.  The first post comes from ngx_http_subrequest() and
+the second one comes from ngx_http_postpone_filter().  In case of a
+quick subrequest finalization, the above mentioned problem happens.
+
+Reported by P4P3R-HAK.
