the malformed SMB2 CREATE request with a crafted durable-handle create context is delivered entirely over the network by a remote peer.\nAC:L - The attacker fully controls the create-context DataOffset/DataLength and struct layout in the request; the undersized context reliably triggers the out-of-bounds read with no uncontrolled preconditions.\nPR:L - SMB2_CREATE is only dispatched after a valid authenticated session (smb2_check_user_session) and tree connect exist, so the attacker needs valid (even low-privilege/guest) SMB credentials — this is post-authentication, not a handshake path.\nUI:N - The attacker triggers the flaw purely by sending a crafted create request; no action by any local user or victim is required.\nS:U - The out-of-bounds read stays within the kernel's own memory and security authority; no boundary such as a VM/hypervisor or IOMMU is crossed.\nC:H - The bug reads tens of bytes of adjacent kernel heap memory beyond the request buffer (well past \"a few bytes\"), which per kernel OOB-read guidance is High confidentiality impact.\nI:N - The defect is strictly a read; it provides no memory-write or corruption primitive, and the OOB-sourced file id/GUID values cannot be steered to a controlled durable-handle takeover.\nA:H - The out-of-bounds read can dereference an unmapped/guard page (kvmalloc/vmalloc-backed buffers) or trip KASAN, producing a kernel oops/panic and denial of service." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "fs/smb/server/smb2pdu.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "0626e6641f6b467447c81dd7678a69c66f7746cf", "lessThan": "8d4848c45943c9cf5e86142fd7347efa97f497db", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0626e6641f6b467447c81dd7678a69c66f7746cf", "lessThan": "29b946714d6aa77de54c71243bba39469ac43ef2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0626e6641f6b467447c81dd7678a69c66f7746cf", "lessThan": "1107b9ed92194603593c51829a3887812ae9e806", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0626e6641f6b467447c81dd7678a69c66f7746cf", "lessThan": "f0db3d9d416e332a0d6f045a1509539d3a4cd898", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0626e6641f6b467447c81dd7678a69c66f7746cf", "lessThan": "542027e123fc0bfd61dd59e21ae0ee4ef2101b29", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "fs/smb/server/smb2pdu.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "5.15", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "5.15", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.6.87", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.12.23", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.13.11", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.13.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.14.2", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.14.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.15", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.15", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.87" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.15", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.23" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.15", "versionEndExcluding": "6.13.11" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.15", "versionEndExcluding": "6.14.2" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.15", "versionEndExcluding": "6.15" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8d4848c45943c9cf5e86142fd7347efa97f497db" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/29b946714d6aa77de54c71243bba39469ac43ef2" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1107b9ed92194603593c51829a3887812ae9e806" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f0db3d9d416e332a0d6f045a1509539d3a4cd898" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/542027e123fc0bfd61dd59e21ae0ee4ef2101b29" } ], "title": "ksmbd: add bounds check for durable handle context", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
