      "title": "ksmbd: require minimum ACE size in smb_check_perm_dacl()",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nksmbd: require minimum ACE size in smb_check_perm_dacl()\n\nBoth ACE-walk loops in smb_check_perm_dacl() only guard against an\nunder-sized remaining buffer, not against an ACE whose declared\n`ace->size` is smaller than the struct it claims to describe:\n\n  if (offsetof(struct smb_ace, access_req) > aces_size)\n      break;\n  ace_size = le16_to_cpu(ace->size);\n  if (ace_size > aces_size)\n      break;\n\nThe first check only requires the 4-byte ACE header to be in bounds;\nit does not require access_req (4 bytes at offset 4) to be readable.\nAn attacker who has set a crafted DACL on a file they own can declare\nace->size == 4 with aces_size == 4, pass both checks, and then\n\n  granted |= le32_to_cpu(ace->access_req);               /* upper loop */\n  compare_sids(&sid, &ace->sid);                         /* lower loop */\n\nreads access_req at offset 4 (OOB by up to 4 bytes) and ace->sid at\noffset 8 (OOB by up to CIFS_SID_BASE_SIZE + SID_MAX_SUB_AUTHORITIES\n* 4 bytes).\n\nTighten both loops to require\n\n  ace_size >= offsetof(struct smb_ace, sid) + CIFS_SID_BASE_SIZE\n\nwhich is the smallest valid on-wire ACE layout (4-byte header +\n4-byte access_req + 8-byte sid base with zero sub-auths).  Also\nreject ACEs whose sid.num_subauth exceeds SID_MAX_SUB_AUTHORITIES\nbefore letting compare_sids() dereference sub_auth[] entries.\n\nparse_sec_desc() already enforces an equivalent check (lines 441-448);\nsmb_check_perm_dacl() simply grew weaker validation over time.\n\nReachability: authenticated SMB client with permission to set an ACL\non a file.  On a subsequent CREATE against that file, the kernel\nwalks the stored DACL via smb_check_perm_dacl() and triggers the\nOOB read.  Not pre-auth, and the OOB read is not reflected to the\nattacker, but KASAN reports and kernel state corruption are\npossible.",
