ksmbd: validate inherited ACE SID length

2026-05-23T11:03:35+00:00

[ Upstream commit 996454bc0da84d5a1dedb1a7861823087e01a7ae ] smb_inherit_dacl() walks the parent directory DACL loaded from the security descriptor xattr. It verifies that each ACE contains the fixed SID header before using it, but does not verify that the variable-length SID described by sid.num_subauth is fully contained in the ACE. A malformed inheritable ACE can advertise more subauthorities than are present in the ACE. compare_sids() may then read past the ACE. smb_set_ace() also clamps the copied destination SID, but used the unchecked source SID count to compute the inherited ACE size. That could advance the temporary inherited ACE buffer pointer and nt_size accounting past the allocated buffer. Fix this by validating the parent ACE SID count and SID length before using the SID during inheritance. Compute the inherited ACE size from the copied SID so the size matches the bounded destination SID. Reject the inherited DACL if size accumulation would overflow smb_acl.size or the security descriptor allocation size.

smb: client: Use FullSessionKey for AES-256 encryption key derivation

2026-05-23T11:03:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit 5be7a0cef3229fb3b63a07c0d289daf752545424 ] When Kerberos authentication is used with AES-256 encryption (AES-256-CCM or AES-256-GCM), the SMB3 encryption and decryption keys must be derived using the full session key (Session.FullSessionKey) rather than just the first 16 bytes (Session.SessionKey). Per MS-SMB2 section 3.2.5.3.1, when Connection.Dialect is "3.1.1" and Connection.CipherId is AES-256-CCM or AES-256-GCM, Session.FullSessionKey must be set to the full cryptographic key from the GSS authentication context. The encryption and decryption key derivation (SMBC2SCipherKey, SMBS2CCipherKey) must use this FullSessionKey as the KDF input. The signing key derivation continues to use Session.SessionKey (first 16 bytes) in all cases. Previously, generate_key() hardcoded SMB2_NTLMV2_SESSKEY_SIZE (16) as the HMAC-SHA256 key input length for all derivations. When Kerberos with AES-256 provides a 32-byte session key, the KDF for encryption/decryption was using only the first 16 bytes, producing keys that did not match the server's, causing mount failures with sec=krb5 and require_gcm_256=1. Add a full_key_size parameter to generate_key() and pass the appropriate size from generate_smb3signingkey(): - Signing: always SMB2_NTLMV2_SESSKEY_SIZE (16 bytes) - Encryption/Decryption: ses->auth_key.len when AES-256, otherwise 16 Also fix cifs_dump_full_key() to report the actual session key length for AES-256 instead of hardcoded CIFS_SESS_KEY_SIZE, so that userspace tools like Wireshark receive the correct key for decryption.

ksmbd: validate response sizes in ipc_validate_msg()

2026-05-23T11:03:32+00:00

[ Upstream commit d6a6aa81eac2c9bff66dc6e191179cb69a14426b ] ipc_validate_msg() computes the expected message size for each response type by adding (or multiplying) attacker-controlled fields from the daemon response to a fixed struct size in unsigned int arithmetic. Three cases can overflow: KSMBD_EVENT_RPC_REQUEST: msg_sz = sizeof(struct ksmbd_rpc_command) + resp->payload_sz; KSMBD_EVENT_SHARE_CONFIG_REQUEST: msg_sz = sizeof(struct ksmbd_share_config_response) + resp->payload_sz; KSMBD_EVENT_LOGIN_REQUEST_EXT: msg_sz = sizeof(struct ksmbd_login_response_ext) + resp->ngroups * sizeof(gid_t); resp->payload_sz is __u32 and resp->ngroups is __s32. Each addition can wrap in unsigned int; the multiplication by sizeof(gid_t) mixes signed and size_t, so a negative ngroups is converted to SIZE_MAX before the multiply. A wrapped value of msg_sz that happens to equal entry->msg_sz bypasses the size check on the next line, and downstream consumers (smb2pdu.c:6742 memcpy using rpc_resp->payload_sz, kmemdup in ksmbd_alloc_user using resp_ext->ngroups) then trust the unverified length. Use check_add_overflow() on the RPC_REQUEST and SHARE_CONFIG_REQUEST paths to detect integer overflow without constraining functional payload size; userspace ksmbd-tools grows NDR responses in 4096-byte chunks for calls like NetShareEnumAll, so a hard transport cap is unworkable on the response side. For LOGIN_REQUEST_EXT, reject resp->ngroups outside the signed [0, NGROUPS_MAX] range up front and report the error from ipc_validate_msg() so it fires at the IPC boundary; with that bound the subsequent multiplication and addition stay well below UINT_MAX. The now-redundant ngroups check and pr_err in ksmbd_alloc_user() are removed. This is the response-side analogue of aab98e2dbd64 ("ksmbd: fix integer overflows on 32 bit systems"), which hardened the request side.

smb: client: fix OOB reads parsing symlink error response

2026-05-23T11:03:31+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3df690bba28edec865cf7190be10708ad0ddd67e ] When a CREATE returns STATUS_STOPPED_ON_SYMLINK, smb2_check_message() returns success without any length validation, leaving the symlink parsers as the only defense against an untrusted server. symlink_data() walks SMB 3.1.1 error contexts with the loop test "p < end", but reads p->ErrorId at offset 4 and p->ErrorDataLength at offset 0. When the server-controlled ErrorDataLength advances p to within 1-7 bytes of end, the next iteration will read past it. When the matching context is found, sym->SymLinkErrorTag is read at offset 4 from p->ErrorContextData with no check that the symlink header itself fits. smb2_parse_symlink_response() then bounds-checks the substitute name using SMB2_SYMLINK_STRUCT_SIZE as the offset of PathBuffer from iov_base. That value is computed as sizeof(smb2_err_rsp) + sizeof(smb2_symlink_err_rsp), which is correct only when ErrorContextCount == 0. With at least one error context the symlink data sits 8 bytes deeper, and each skipped non-matching context shifts it further by 8 + ALIGN(ErrorDataLength, 8). The check is too short, allowing the substitute name read to run past iov_len. The out-of-bound heap bytes are UTF-16-decoded into the symlink target and returned to userspace via readlink(2). Fix this all up by making the loops test require the full context header to fit, rejecting sym if its header runs past end, and bound the substitute name against the actual position of sym->PathBuffer rather than a fixed offset. Because sub_offs and sub_len are 16bits, the pointer math will not overflow here with the new greater-than.

smb: client: correctly handle ErrorContextData as a flexible array

2026-05-23T11:03:31+00:00

[ Upstream commit 215b7f9ecb8d7c14d56febdcdd246f3579c32aba ] The `smb2_symlink_err_rsp` structure was previously defined with `ErrorContextData` as a single `__u8` byte. However, the `ErrorContextData` field is intended to be a variable-length array based on `ErrorDataLength`. This mismatch leads to incorrect pointer arithmetic and potential memory access issues when processing error contexts. Updates the `ErrorContextData` field to be a flexible array (`__u8 ErrorContextData[]`). Additionally, it modifies the corresponding casts in the `symlink_data()` function to properly handle the flexible array, ensuring correct memory calculations and data handling. These changes improve the robustness of SMB2 symlink error processing.

ksmbd: scope conn->binding slowpath to bound sessions only

2026-05-23T11:03:25+00:00

[ Upstream commit b0da97c034b6107d14e537e212d4ce8b22109a58 ] When the binding SESSION_SETUP sets conn->binding = true, the flag stays set after the call so that the global session lookup in ksmbd_session_lookup_all() can find the session, which was not added to conn->sessions. Because the flag is connection-wide, the global lookup path will also resolve any other session by id if asked. Tighten the global lookup so that the returned session must have this connection registered in its channel xarray (sess->ksmbd_chann_list). The channel entry is installed by the existing binding_session path in ntlm_authenticate()/krb5_authenticate() when a SESSION_SETUP completes successfully, so this condition is a strict equivalent of "this connection has been accepted as a channel of this session". Connections that have not bound to a given session cannot reach it via the global table. The existing conn->binding gate for entering the slowpath is preserved so that non-binding connections keep the fast-path-only behavior, and the session->state check is unchanged.

ksmbd: fix durable fd leak on ClientGUID mismatch in durable v2 open

2026-05-23T11:03:25+00:00

[ Upstream commit 804054d19886ac6628883d82410f6ee42a818664 ] ksmbd_lookup_fd_cguid() returns a ksmbd_file with its refcount incremented via ksmbd_fp_get(). parse_durable_handle_context() in the DURABLE_REQ_V2 case properly releases this reference on every path inside the ClientGUID-match branch, either by calling ksmbd_put_durable_fd() or by transferring ownership to dh_info->fp for a successful reconnect. However, when an entry exists in the global file table with the same CreateGuid but a different ClientGUID, the code simply falls through to the new-open path without dropping the reference obtained from ksmbd_lookup_fd_cguid(). Per MS-SMB2 section 3.3.5.9.10 ("Handling the SMB2_CREATE_DURABLE_HANDLE_REQUEST_V2 Create Context"), the server MUST locate an Open whose Open.CreateGuid matches the request's CreateGuid AND whose Open.ClientGuid matches the ClientGuid of the connection that received the request. If no such Open is found, the server MUST continue with the normal open execution phase. A CreateGuid hit with a ClientGUID mismatch is therefore the "Open not found" case: proceeding with a new open is correct, but the reference obtained purely as a side effect of the lookup must not be leaked. Repeated requests that hit this mismatch pin global_ft entries, prevent __ksmbd_close_fd() from ever running for the corresponding files, and defeat the durable scavenger, leading to long-lived resource leaks. Release the reference in the mismatch path and clear dh_info->fp so subsequent logic does not mistake a non-matching lookup result for a reconnect target.

ksmbd: destroy async_ida in ksmbd_conn_free()

2026-05-23T11:03:25+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.
