Description

CVE-2024-50151 affecting package kernel for versions less than 5.15.173.1-1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

smb: client: fix OOBs when building SMB2_IOCTL request

When using encryption, either enforced by the server or when using

'seal' mount option, the client will squash all compound request buffers

down for encryption into a single iov in smb2_set_next_command().

SMB2_ioctl_init() allocates a small buffer (448 bytes) to hold the

SMB2_IOCTL request in the first iov, and if the user passes an input

buffer that is greater than 328 bytes, smb2_set_next_command() will

end up writing off the end of @rqst->iov[0].iov_base as shown below:

mount.cifs //srv/share /mnt -o ...,seal

ln -s $(perl -e "print('a')for 1..1024") /mnt/link
