| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: add a permission check for FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA
FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA in smb2_ioctl() destroys file data via
ksmbd_vfs_zero_data() -> vfs_fallocate(PUNCH_HOLE/ZERO_RANGE) after
checking only the share-level KSMBD_TREE_CONN_FLAG_WRITABLE, with no
per-handle access check. A handle opened with only FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES
still yields an FMODE_WRITE filp (FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES is part of
FILE_WRITE_DESIRE_ACCESS_LE, so smb2_create_open_flags() opens it
O_WRONLY), so the vfs_fallocate FMODE_WRITE check does not stop it; only
the missing fp->daccess gate would. Reproduced on mainline 7.1-rc7 with
KASAN by an authenticated SMB client: a FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES-only handle
zeroed 4096 bytes of file data it had no FILE_WRITE_DATA right to
(6/6; a FILE_READ_DATA-only handle was correctly denied).
This is the unfixed sibling of commit cc57232cae23 ("ksmbd: fix FSCTL
permission bypass by adding a permission check for FSCTL_SET_SPARSE").
Because SET_ZERO_DATA writes data (not an attribute), require
FILE_WRITE_DATA. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: serialize QUERY_DIRECTORY requests per file
smb2_query_dir() stores a pointer to its stack-allocated private data in
the ksmbd_file readdir_data. Concurrent QUERY_DIRECTORY requests using the
same file handle can overwrite this pointer while an iterate_dir() callback
is still using it, resulting in a stack use-after-free.
Add a per-file mutex and hold it while accessing the shared directory
enumeration state. The lock covers scan restart, dot entry state,
readdir_data setup and iteration, and response construction. This prevents
another request from replacing readdir_data.private before the current
request has finished using it and also serializes the shared file position. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix UAF of struct file_lock in SMB2_LOCK deferred-lock cancellation
When a blocking byte-range lock request is deferred in the
FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED path, ksmbd registers the asynchronous work into
the connection's async_requests list via setup_async_work(). The cancel
callback smb2_remove_blocked_lock() holds a reference to the flock.
If the lock waiter is subsequently woken up but the work state is no
longer KSMBD_WORK_ACTIVE (e.g., due to a concurrent cancellation), the
cleanup path calls locks_free_lock(flock) without dequeuing the work from
the async_requests list. Concurrently, smb2_cancel() walks the list
under conn->request_lock and invokes the cancel callback, which then
dereferences the already freed 'flock'. This leads to a slab-use-after-free
inside __wake_up_common.
Fix this by restructuring the cleanup logic after the worker returns
from ksmbd_vfs_posix_lock_wait(). Move list_del(&smb_lock->llist) and
release_async_work(work) to the top of the cleanup block. This guarantees
that the async work is completely dequeued and serialized under
conn->request_lock before locks_free_lock(flock) is called, rendering
the flock unreachable for any concurrent smb2_cancel(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: require source read access for duplicate extents
FSCTL_DUPLICATE_EXTENTS_TO_FILE passes the source file directly to
vfs_clone_file_range() or vfs_copy_file_range() without checking the SMB
access mask granted to the source handle. A handle opened with attribute
access can consequently be used to copy file contents into an
attacker-readable destination.
Require FILE_READ_DATA on the source handle before either VFS operation,
matching other ksmbd data-copy paths. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: add a WRITE_DAC/WRITE_OWNER check to SMB2 SET_INFO SECURITY
commit cc57232cae23 ("ksmbd: fix FSCTL permission bypass by adding a
permission check for FSCTL_SET_SPARSE") added a fp->daccess gate to
fsctl_set_sparse and noted that "similar handle-level checks exist in other
functions but are missing here." The SMB2 SET_INFO SECURITY arm is one of
the missing ones, and the most security-relevant: smb2_set_info_sec() calls
set_info_sec() with no per-handle access check.
set_info_sec() (fs/smb/server/smbacl.c) re-permissions the file: it
rewrites owner/group/mode via notify_change(), rewrites the POSIX ACL via
set_posix_acl(), and on KSMBD_SHARE_FLAG_ACL_XATTR shares removes and
rewrites the Windows security descriptor via ksmbd_vfs_set_sd_xattr().
Every other persistent-mutation arm of the sibling handler
smb2_set_info_file() checks fp->daccess first (FILE_WRITE_DATA /
FILE_DELETE / FILE_WRITE_EA / FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES); the SECURITY arm —
which mutates the access control itself — is the only one with no gate.
A client can therefore open a handle with FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES only (no
FILE_WRITE_DAC / FILE_WRITE_OWNER) and use SMB2_SET_INFO with InfoType
SMB2_O_INFO_SECURITY to rewrite the file's DACL and owner, granting itself
access the handle's daccess never carried. Unlike the FSCTL data arms this
is a metadata/xattr operation, so there is no FMODE_WRITE VFS backstop —
the missing fp->daccess check is the entire gate.
Setting a security descriptor is the WRITE_DAC / WRITE_OWNER operation, so
require at least one of those on the handle before re-permissioning the
file. -EACCES is mapped to STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED by smb2_set_info(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: run set info with opener credentials
SMB2 SET_INFO handlers call path-based VFS helpers after checking the
access mask granted to the SMB handle. Those helpers perform their owner,
inode permission and LSM checks using the current ksmbd worker credentials.
Run the complete SET_INFO dispatch with the credentials captured when the
handle was opened. This also removes the separate security information
credential setup and keeps all SET_INFO classes under one credential scope.
Direct override_creds() is used because it can nest with the request
credential overrides already used by rename and link helpers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: use opener credentials for delete-on-close
Delete-on-close can be completed by deferred or durable handle teardown,
where no request work is available. Both the base-file unlink and the ADS
xattr removal consequently run with the ksmbd worker credentials and can
bypass filesystem permission checks.
Run both operations with the credentials captured in struct file when the
handle was opened. This preserves the authenticated user's fsuid, fsgid,
supplementary groups and capability restrictions at final close. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: use opener credentials for ADS I/O
Alternate data streams are stored as xattrs. Unlike regular file I/O,
their read and write paths therefore call VFS xattr helpers which recheck
inode permissions and LSM policy using the current task credentials.
Run ADS I/O with the credentials captured when the SMB handle was opened. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: track the connection owning a byte-range lock
SMB2_LOCK adds each granted byte-range lock to both the file lock list
and the lock list of the connection which handled the request. The
final close and durable handle paths, however, remove the connection
list entry while holding fp->conn->llist_lock.
With SMB3 multichannel, the connection handling the LOCK request can be
different from the connection which opened the file. The entry can
therefore be removed under a different spinlock from the one protecting
the list it belongs to. A concurrent traversal can then access freed
struct ksmbd_lock and struct file_lock objects.
Record the connection owning each lock's clist entry and hold a
reference to it while the entry is linked. Use that connection and its
llist_lock for unlock, rollback, close, and durable preserve. Durable
reconnect assigns the new connection as the owner when publishing the
locks again. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: validate NTLMv2 response before updating session key
ksmbd_auth_ntlmv2() derives the NTLMv2 session key into
sess->sess_key before it verifies the NTLMv2 response.
ksmbd_decode_ntlmssp_auth_blob() then continues into KEY_XCH even
when ksmbd_auth_ntlmv2() failed.
With SMB3 multichannel binding, the failed authentication operates on
an existing session and the session setup error path does not expire
binding sessions. A client can send a binding session setup with a
bad NT proof and KEY_XCH and still modify sess->sess_key before
STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE is returned.
Relevant path:
smb2_sess_setup()
-> conn->binding = true
-> ntlm_authenticate()
-> session_user()
-> ksmbd_decode_ntlmssp_auth_blob()
-> ksmbd_auth_ntlmv2()
-> calc_ntlmv2_hash()
-> hmac_md5_usingrawkey(..., sess->sess_key)
-> crypto_memneq() returns mismatch
-> KEY_XCH arc4_crypt(..., sess->sess_key, ...)
-> out_err without expiring the binding session
Derive the base session key into a local buffer and copy it to
sess->sess_key only after the proof matches. Return immediately on
authentication failure so KEY_XCH is only processed after successful
authentication. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb/client: fix chown/chgrp with SMB3 POSIX Extensions
Ownership (chown) and group (chgrp) modifications were being ignored when
mounting with SMB3 POSIX Extensions unless CIFS_MOUNT_CIFS_ACL or
CIFS_MOUNT_MODE_FROM_SID were also explicitly set.
Fix this by checking for posix_extensions in cifs_setattr_nounix() when
updating UID and GID, ensuring that id_mode_to_cifs_acl() is called to map
and set the ownership/group information on the server. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix query directory replay double-free
A response-bearing attempt can return a replayable error and free its
response buffer. If SMB2_query_directory_init() fails before the next send,
cleanup retains the previous buffer type and frees that response again.
Reset response bookkeeping before each attempt to prevent the stale free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix query_info() replay double-free
A response-bearing attempt can return a replayable error and free its
response buffer. If SMB2_query_info_init() fails before the next send,
cleanup retains the previous buffer type and frees that response again.
Reset response bookkeeping before each attempt to prevent the stale free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix double-free in SMB2_ioctl() replay
A response-bearing attempt can return a replayable error and free its
response buffer. If SMB2_ioctl_init() fails before the next send, cleanup
retains the previous buffer type and frees that response again.
Reset response bookkeeping before each attempt to prevent the stale free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix change notify replay double-free
A response-bearing attempt can return a replayable error and free its
response buffer. If SMB2_notify_init() fails before the next send, cleanup
retains the previous buffer type and frees that response again.
Reset response bookkeeping before each attempt to prevent the stale free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix double-free in SMB2_flush() replay
SMB2_flush() keeps its response buffer bookkeeping across replay
attempts. If a replayable flush response is received and the retry then
fails before cifs_send_recv() stores a replacement response, flush_exit
will free the stale response pointer a second time.
Reinitialize resp_buftype and rsp_iov at the top of the replay loop so
cleanup only acts on response state produced by the current attempt.
This fixes a double-free without changing replay handling for successful
requests. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix double-free in SMB2_open() replay
A response-bearing attempt can return a replayable error and free its
response buffer. If SMB2_open_init() fails before the next send, cleanup
retains the previous buffer type and frees that response again.
Reset response bookkeeping before each attempt to prevent the stale free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: Fix next buffer leak in receive_encrypted_standard()
receive_encrypted_standard() allocates next_buffer before checking
whether the number of compound PDUs already reached MAX_COMPOUND. If
the limit check fails, the function returns immediately and the newly
allocated next_buffer is not assigned to server->smallbuf/server->bigbuf,
making it leaked.
Move the MAX_COMPOUND check before allocating next_buffer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: harden POSIX SID length parsing
posix_info_sid_size() reads sid[1] to obtain the subauthority count,
but its existing boundary check still accepts buffers with only one
remaining byte. Require two bytes before reading sid[1] so all client
paths that reuse the helper reject truncated POSIX SIDs safely. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: mask server-provided mode to 07777 in modefromsid
When modefromsid is active, parse_dacl() applies the server-provided
sub_auth[2] value from the NFS mode SID to cf_mode without masking to
07777. Apply the correct masking, same as in the read path. |
