Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: require a full NFS mode SID before reading mode bits
parse_dacl() treats an ACE SID matching sid_unix_NFS_mode as an NFS
mode SID and reads sid.sub_auth[2] to recover the mode bits.
That assumes the ACE carries three subauthorities, but compare_sids()
only compares min(a, b) subauthorities. A malicious server can return
an ACE with num_subauth = 2 and sub_auth[] = {88, 3}, which still
matches sid_unix_NFS_mode and then drives the sub_auth[2] read four
bytes past the end of the ACE.
Require num_subauth >= 3 before treating the ACE as an NFS mode SID.
This keeps the fix local to the special-SID mode path without changing
compare_sids() semantics for the rest of cifsacl.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel CIFS/SMB client when parsing DACLs (parse_dacl). An ACE could match the Unix NFS mode SID prefix with only two subauthorities; code then read sub_auth[2] for mode bits, accessing four bytes past the end of the ACE buffer. Upstream requires num_subauth >= 3 before treating an ACE as an NFS mode SID.
Отчет
Red Hat acknowledges the upstream Linux kernel correction for «smb» as described in COMMENT_ZERO. Fixes are delivered through standard kernel errata for supported products. Operational exposure depends on whether this subsystem or driver is active in your configuration.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, prevent the cifs module from being loaded. See https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for instructions.
