A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Server Message Block (SMB) client. An attacker, by operating a malicious SMB server, could send specially crafted responses during the session negotiation phase. This could cause the client to read beyond the intended memory buffer, potentially leading to the disclosure of sensitive information from the kernel's memory.
