Описание

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: validate minimum PDU size for transform requests The receive path applies the minimum SMB2 PDU size check only when ProtocolId is SMB2_PROTO_NUMBER. A packet carrying SMB2_TRANSFORM_PROTO_NUM bypasses the check even when the negotiated dialect does not provide transform handling. On an SMB 2.1 connection, a short transform packet therefore reaches init_smb2_rsp_hdr(), which interprets the request as a full SMB2 header and reads beyond the request allocation. The copied fields can then be returned to the unauthenticated client. Compression transforms are converted to ordinary SMB2 messages before protocol validation. After that conversion, validate ordinary SMB2 requests against SMB2_MIN_SUPPORTED_PDU_SIZE and require encryption transform requests to contain both a transform header and an SMB2 header. This rejects truncated requests before work allocation.

A flaw was found in ksmbd in the Linux kernel. When handling Server Message Block version 2 (SMB2) transform requests, the system fails to validate the minimum Protocol Data Unit (PDU) size. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send a specially crafted, short transform packet, bypassing security checks. This leads to the system reading beyond allocated memory and potentially disclosing sensitive information to the attacker.
