In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix create context out-of-bounds reads
smb2_parse_contexts() validates the complete create-context area but
does not limit each record to its Next field before dispatching it. A
malformed chain can therefore expose bytes beyond the current context to
a handler. The QFid handler also used a full response-structure cast
although it only reads DiskFileId.
The SMB2/SMB3 lease parsers made the same layout assumption: they read
LeaseState and LeaseFlags at canonical offsets rather than at
DataOffset. A valid non-canonical DataOffset could therefore yield
unrelated in-bounds data, while a short DataLength was still accepted.
Limit each context to its Next value, reject offsets before the context
header, and reject malformed chains. Bound the name range by the current
context and do not dispatch a known handler when DataLength is zero. Read
the QFid DiskFileId only when the context data covers that field. Parse the
lease context from DataOffset and require DataLength to match the v1 or v2
lease_context size used by ksmbd. A size mismatch skips lease parsing
without failing the open.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Server Message Block (SMB) client. A malicious SMB server can exploit this vulnerability by sending malformed create context responses to a connecting system. Because the client fails to properly validate record boundaries during response parsing, this issue can trigger out-of-bounds memory reads, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) or unauthorized information disclosure.
Отчет
This vulnerability is rated as Moderate severity for Red Hat Enterprise Linux because exploitation requires client-side interaction to initiate a connection to an untrusted or compromised SMB server. Systems are exposed only when explicitly mounting remote network shares using the kernel CIFS driver. Because the issue cannot be triggered remotely against passive systems and does not lead to privilege escalation or arbitrary code execution, the primary risk is limited to a client-side denial of service.
