Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix incomplete backport in cfids_invalidation_worker()
The previous commit bdb596ceb4b7 ("smb: client: fix potential UAF in
smb2_close_cached_fid()") was an incomplete backport and missed one
kref_put() call in cfids_invalidation_worker() that should have been
converted to close_cached_dir().
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s SMB client implementation (fs/smb/client/cached_dir.c). An earlier commit intended to fix a potential use-after-free in smb2_close_cached_fid() was incompletely backported, resulting in a missing kref_put() call in the cfids_invalidation_worker() function. Under certain conditions, this can lead to a use-after-free of a reference counted object, potentially causing kernel instability or denial of service.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, prevent the cifs kernel module from loading. This can be achieved by creating a blacklist file.
- Create a file named
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-cifs.confwith the following content:
- Regenerate the initramfs:
- Reboot the system for the changes to take effect.
Note that blacklisting the
cifsmodule will disable SMB client functionality, which may impact systems relying on it for network file sharing.
