ksmbd: track the connection owning a byte-range lock

2026-07-24T13:55:15+00:00

[ Upstream commit c1016dd1d8b2bcd1158bbaabe94a31bb7e7431fb ] SMB2_LOCK adds each granted byte-range lock to both the file lock list and the lock list of the connection which handled the request. The final close and durable handle paths, however, remove the connection list entry while holding fp->conn->llist_lock. With SMB3 multichannel, the connection handling the LOCK request can be different from the connection which opened the file. The entry can therefore be removed under a different spinlock from the one protecting the list it belongs to. A concurrent traversal can then access freed struct ksmbd_lock and struct file_lock objects. Record the connection owning each lock's clist entry and hold a reference to it while the entry is linked. Use that connection and its llist_lock for unlock, rollback, close, and durable preserve. Durable reconnect assigns the new connection as the owner when publishing the locks again.

ksmbd: centralize ksmbd_conn final release to plug transport leak

2026-07-24T13:55:15+00:00

[ Upstream commit b1f1e80620deb49daf63c2e677046599b693dc1f ] ksmbd_conn_free() is one of four sites that can observe the last refcount drop of a struct ksmbd_conn. The other three fs/smb/server/connection.c ksmbd_conn_r_count_dec() fs/smb/server/oplock.c __free_opinfo() fs/smb/server/vfs_cache.c session_fd_check() end the conn with a bare kfree(), skipping ida_destroy(&conn->async_ida) and conn->transport->ops->free_transport(conn->transport). Whenever one of them is the last putter, the embedded async_ida and the entire transport struct leak -- for TCP, that is also the struct socket and the kvec iov. __free_opinfo() being a final putter is not theoretical. opinfo_put() queues the callback via call_rcu(&opinfo->rcu, free_opinfo_rcu), so ksmbd_server_terminate_conn() can deposit N opinfo releases in RCU and have ksmbd_conn_free() run in the handler thread before any of them fire. ksmbd_conn_free() then observes refcnt > 0 and short-circuits; the last RCU-delivered __free_opinfo() falls onto its bare kfree(conn) branch and the transport is lost. A/B validation in a QEMU/virtme guest, mounting //127.0.0.1/testshare: each iteration holds 8 files open via sleep processes, force-closes TCP with "ss -K sport = :445", kills the holders, lazy-umounts; repeated 10 times, then ksmbd shutdown and kmemleak scan. state conn_alloc conn_free tcp_free opi_rcu kmemleak ---------- ---------- --------- -------- ------- -------- pre-patch 20 20 10 160 7 with patch 20 20 20 160 0 Pre-patch conn_free=20 with tcp_free=10 directly demonstrates the bare-kfree paths skipping transport cleanup; kmemleak backtraces point into struct tcp_transport / iov. With this patch tcp_free matches conn_free at 20/20 and kmemleak is clean. Move the per-struct final release into __ksmbd_conn_release_work() and route the three bare-kfree final-put sites through a new ksmbd_conn_put(). Those sites now pair ida_destroy() and free_transport() with kfree(conn) regardless of which holder happens to release the last reference. stop_sessions() only triggers the transport shutdown and does not itself drop the last conn reference, so it is unaffected. The centralized release reaches sock_release() -> tcp_close() -> lock_sock_nested() (might_sleep) from every final putter, including __free_opinfo() invoked from an RCU softirq callback, which trips CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP. Defer the release to a dedicated ksmbd_conn_wq workqueue so ksmbd_conn_put() is safe from any non-sleeping context. Make ksmbd_file own a strong connection reference while fp->conn is non-NULL so durable-preserve and final-close paths cannot dereference a stale connection. ksmbd_open_fd() and ksmbd_reopen_durable_fd() take the reference via ksmbd_conn_get() (the latter also reorders the fp->conn / fp->tcon assignments before __open_id() so the published fp is never observed with fp->conn == NULL); session_fd_check() and __ksmbd_close_fd() drop it via ksmbd_conn_put(). With that invariant, session_fd_check() can take a local conn pointer once and use it across the m_op_list and lock_list iterations even though op->conn puts may otherwise drop the last reference. At module exit the workqueue is flushed and destroyed after rcu_barrier(), so any release queued by a trailing RCU callback is drained before the inode hash and module text go away.

ksmbd: destroy async_ida in ksmbd_conn_free()

2026-07-24T13:55:15+00:00

[ Upstream commit b32c8db48212a34998c36d0bbc05b29d5c407ef5 ] When per-connection async_ida was converted from a dynamically allocated ksmbd_ida to an embedded struct ida, ksmbd_ida_free() was removed from the connection teardown path but no matching ida_destroy() was added. The connection is therefore freed with the IDA's backing xarray still intact. The kernel IDA API expects ida_init() and ida_destroy() to be paired over an object's lifetime, so add the missing cleanup before the connection is freed. No leak has been observed in testing; this is a pairing fix to match the IDA lifetime rules, not a response to a reproduced regression.

ksmbd: fix mechToken leak when SPNEGO decode fails after token alloc

2026-07-24T13:55:15+00:00

[ Upstream commit ad0057fb91218914d6c98268718ceb9d59b388e1 ] The kernel ASN.1 BER decoder calls action callbacks incrementally as it walks the input. When ksmbd_decode_negTokenInit() reaches the mechToken [2] OCTET STRING element, ksmbd_neg_token_alloc() allocates conn->mechToken immediately via kmemdup_nul(). If a later element in the same blob is malformed, then the decoder will return nonzero after the allocation is already live. This could happen if mechListMIC [3] overrunse the enclosing SEQUENCE. decode_negotiation_token() then sets conn->use_spnego = false because both the negTokenInit and negTokenTarg grammars failed. The cleanup at the bottom of smb2_sess_setup() is gated on use_spnego: if (conn->use_spnego && conn->mechToken) { kfree(conn->mechToken); conn->mechToken = NULL; } so the kfree is skipped, causing the mechToken to never be freed. This codepath is reachable pre-authentication, so untrusted clients can cause slow memory leaks on a server without even being properly authenticated. Fix this up by not checking check for use_spnego, as it's not required, so the memory will always be properly freed. At the same time, always free the memory in ksmbd_conn_free() incase some other failure path forgot to free it.

ksmbd: fix use-after-free in __ksmbd_close_fd() via durable scavenger

2026-07-24T13:55:15+00:00

[ Upstream commit 235e32320a470fcd3998fb3774f2290a0eb302a1 ] When a durable file handle survives session disconnect (TCP close without SMB2_LOGOFF), session_fd_check() sets fp->conn = NULL to preserve the handle for later reconnection. However, it did not clean up the byte-range locks on fp->lock_list. Later, when the durable scavenger thread times out and calls __ksmbd_close_fd(NULL, fp), the lock cleanup loop did: spin_lock(&fp->conn->llist_lock); This caused a slab use-after-free because fp->conn was NULL and the original connection object had already been freed by ksmbd_tcp_disconnect(). The root cause is asymmetric cleanup: lock entries (smb_lock->clist) were left dangling on the freed conn->lock_list while fp->conn was nulled out. To fix this issue properly, we need to handle the lifetime of smb_lock->clist across three paths: - Safely skip clist deletion when list is empty and fp->conn is NULL. - Remove the lock from the old connection's lock_list in session_fd_check() - Re-add the lock to the new connection's lock_list in ksmbd_reopen_durable_fd().

ksmbd: use opener credentials for FSCTL mutations

[ Upstream commit c6394bcaf254c5baf9aff43376020be5db6d3316 ] SET_SPARSE, SET_ZERO_DATA and SET_COMPRESSION operate on an open SMB handle but call VFS xattr, fallocate or fileattr helpers with the current ksmbd worker credentials. Those helpers can revalidate inode permissions, ownership and LSM policy independently of the SMB handle access mask. Run each operation with the credentials captured in the target file when the handle was opened. Keep credential handling local to these single-file FSCTLs rather than applying session credentials to the complete IOCTL handler, which also contains handle-less and multi-handle operations.

ksmbd: fix integer overflow in set_file_allocation_info()

2026-07-24T13:55:04+00:00

commit 1c0ae3df692ea2a4ce992f786346154e75a3f0d5 upstream. set_file_allocation_info() converts the client-supplied FILE_ALLOCATION_INFORMATION::AllocationSize into a 512-byte block count with: alloc_blks = (le64_to_cpu(file_alloc_info->AllocationSize) + 511) >> 9; AllocationSize is a fully client-controlled __le64 field; the only validation performed by the caller (smb2_set_info_file(), case FILE_ALLOCATION_INFORMATION) is that the fixed buffer is at least sizeof(struct smb2_file_alloc_info) == 8 bytes. The value itself is never range-checked before this arithmetic. When AllocationSize is close to U64_MAX (e.g. 0xffffffffffffffff), "AllocationSize + 511" wraps around mod 2^64 to a small number (0xffffffffffffffff + 511 = 510), so alloc_blks becomes 0. Since any existing regular file has stat.blocks > 0, the function then takes the "shrink" branch and calls: ksmbd_vfs_truncate(work, fp, alloc_blks * 512); /* == 0 */ silently truncating the file to size 0, even though the client asked to grow the allocation to (what looks like) the maximum possible size. The trailing "if (size < alloc_blks * 512) i_size_write(inode, size);" restore is guarded by a comparison that is never true once alloc_blks == 0, so the truncation is not undone. This lets an authenticated SMB client that already holds an open handle with FILE_WRITE_DATA on a file silently truncate that same file to size 0 via a single crafted SET_INFO(FILE_ALLOCATION_INFORMATION) request advertising a near-U64_MAX AllocationSize, even though the request asks to grow the file's allocation rather than shrink it. This is a functional/data-loss bug, not a privilege-boundary violation: the same client could already truncate the file via FILE_END_OF_FILE_INFORMATION or a plain write. Fix it by validating AllocationSize against MAX_LFS_FILESIZE, the same upper bound the VFS itself uses to reject unrepresentable file sizes, before doing the "+511" rounding, and rejecting oversized values with -EINVAL. Bounding AllocationSize to MAX_LFS_FILESIZE - 511 guarantees the "+511" addition cannot wrap, and that the subsequent "alloc_blks * 512" values passed to vfs_fallocate() and ksmbd_vfs_truncate() stay within a representable loff_t as well. No legitimate SMB client asks for an allocation size anywhere near 2^64 bytes, so this only rejects a value that was previously silently misinterpreted as zero. Runtime-verified on a v6.19 KASAN test stand: sending SET_INFO (FILE_ALLOCATION_INFORMATION) with AllocationSize = 0xffffffffffffffff against ksmbd now returns -EINVAL and leaves the target file's size unchanged, where the unpatched kernel truncated it from 4096 to 0 bytes.

ksmbd: fix use-after-free of conn->preauth_info in concurrent SMB2 NEGOTIATE

2026-07-24T13:54:51+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0c054227479ed7e36ebccb3a558bc0ef698264f6 ] conn->preauth_info is shared connection state (struct preauth_integrity_info, kmalloc-96) that is allocated and freed by the SMB2 NEGOTIATE handler and read by the response send path. smb2_handle_negotiate() allocates conn->preauth_info, and on a deassemble_neg_contexts() failure kfrees it and sets it to NULL. Both the allocation and the free/NULL happen under ksmbd_conn_lock(conn) (the connection srv_mutex), which is held across the whole handler body. The response send path smb3_preauth_hash_rsp(), called from the send: block of __handle_ksmbd_work(), reads conn->preauth_info and dereferences conn->preauth_info->Preauth_HashValue (via ksmbd_gen_preauth_integrity_hash()) without taking conn_lock. When a client drives two SMB2 NEGOTIATE requests on the same connection, one worker can free conn->preauth_info on the failing-negotiate path while a concurrent send-path worker is reading it, producing a slab use-after-free read (KASAN-confirmed). The send-path read tested conn->preauth_info for NULL but raced with the free that occurs between the NULL check and the dereference, so the NULL guard alone does not close the window. Serialize the NEGOTIATE-branch read in smb3_preauth_hash_rsp() under ksmbd_conn_lock(conn) and re-check conn->preauth_info inside the lock. Because the negotiate handler holds conn_lock across its kfree + NULL assignment, a reader that also takes conn_lock either runs fully before the allocation or fully after the NULL store, and can never observe the freed-but-not-yet-NULLed pointer. ksmbd_gen_preauth_integrity_hash() takes no locks itself (it only computes a SHA-512 over the buffer), so no lock-ordering inversion is introduced, and conn_lock is a sleepable mutex which is safe on this send path (it already performs network I/O).
