High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:C/I:N/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions 5.15 through 5.18 before 5.18.18
Description
The issue is related to a lack of length validation in the
smb2 write function in the fs/ksmbd/smb2pdu.c module of the Linux kernel, which can lead to a buffer overflow in memory. This can allow a remote attacker to disclose protected information or cause a denial of service.Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions 5.15 through 5.18 before 5.18.18, update to version 5.18.18 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
smb2 write function in the fs/ksmbd/smb2pdu.c module until a patch is available.Fix
