In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix double put of @cfile in smb2_rename_path()
If smb2_set_path_attr() is called with a valid @cfile and returned
-EINVAL, we need to call cifs_get_writable_path() again as the
reference of @cfile was already dropped by previous smb2_compound_op()
call.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Server Message Block (SMB) client. This vulnerability occurs in the smb2_rename_path() function when handling specific error conditions during file attribute operations. A local attacker could exploit this flaw, leading to a double free of a file object, which may result in a denial of service.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, if SMB client functionality is not required, prevent the cifs kernel module from loading. This can be achieved by creating a modprobe configuration file.
- Create a file named
/etc/modprobe.d/disable-cifs.confwith the following content:
- Regenerate the initramfs:
- For RHEL 8 and 9:
dracut -f -v - For RHEL 7:
dracut -f
- Reboot the system for the changes to take effect. This mitigation will prevent the system from mounting SMB shares and may impact functionality that relies on SMB client operations.
