A malicious, compromised, or on-path SMB server reaches reparse_buf_ptr() with crafted OutputOffset/OutputCount; this matches sibling client response-parsing scores such as CVE-2026-46155 and CVE-2024-49996.\nAC:L - The server fully controls OutputOffset and OutputCount. A successful IOCTL PDU with OutputCount < 6 and OutputOffset near iov_len (for example a 448-byte cifs_small_rq-sized frame) deterministically loads ReparseDataLength past the received payload, with no race or attacker-uncontrollable layout.\nPR:N - The attacker is the remote SMB server (or a MITM on an unsigned session) and needs no account, credentials, or capabilities on the victim client. GET_REPARSE runs on an already established tree connect after ordinary CREATE/lookup; the client authenticates to the server, not the reverse.\nUI:N - On an already-mounted or automounted CIFS share, any routine lookup/stat of a reparse point — including files the server flags as reparse in CREATE — issues FSCTL_GET_REPARSE_POINT. Backup jobs, indexers, and inode revalidation hit the parser with no contemporaneous victim mount action.\nS:U - The two-byte out-of-bounds load and any resulting oops stay inside the client kernel's security authority. The bug does not cross a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:L - The use-before-check reads exactly two bytes of ReparseDataLength past the IOCTL output region (and, when the PDU fills cifs_small_rq, past that 448-byte slab). Those bytes are passed only to smb_EIO2 tracing, so disclosure is strictly bounded, matching CVE-2026-64448 rather than unbounded heap leaks.\nI:N - The out-of-bounds access is a u16 load used only in the subsequent length check and error trace. On failure the helper returns -EIO and does not install a reparse tag or copy payload, so there is no kernel write or metadata-corruption primitive.\nA:H - A PDU that fills the cifs_small_rq or cifs_request slab with OutputOffset at the object end makes the two-byte load a true slab-out-of-bounds access, which KASAN reports as a BUG and which can oops/panic if the next page is unmapped. A malicious server can retrigger it on every GET_REPARSE." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "fs/smb/client/smb2inode.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "a158bb66b1373866d9fd5997565a58a573085539", "lessThan": "b70bc592afd19732e2e4563300ebe8f974280365", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "67ec9949b0dfe78c99e110dd975eb7dc5645630c", "lessThan": "711cf71300d7992f450600df8864917d3538679f", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "67ec9949b0dfe78c99e110dd975eb7dc5645630c", "lessThan": "05f78e6cf34ea3a285053bd5999e08e8ac298bd5", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "6.6.32", "lessThan": "6.6.160", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "fs/smb/client/smb2inode.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.8", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.8", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.6.160", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.2.4", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.2.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.3", "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": "6.6.32", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.160" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.8", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2.4" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.8", "versionEndExcluding": "7.3" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b70bc592afd19732e2e4563300ebe8f974280365" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/711cf71300d7992f450600df8864917d3538679f" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/05f78e6cf34ea3a285053bd5999e08e8ac298bd5" } ], "title": "smb: client: fix use-before-check of ReparseDataLength in reparse_buf_ptr()", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } }, "adp": [ { "metrics": [ { "other": { "type": "ssvc", "content": { "id": "CVE-2026-89632", "role": "CISA Coordinator", "options": [ { "Exploitation": "none" }, { "Automatable": "yes" }, { "Technical Impact": "partial" } ], "version": "2.0.3", "timestamp": "2026-10-16T19:24:44.423758Z" } } } ], "title": "CISA ADP Vulnrichment", "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "shortName": "CISA-ADP", "dateUpdated": "2026-10-16T19:26:45.525Z" } } ] } }
