CVE-2022-47941

CVSS v3.1

7.5

High

VectorAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions 5.15 through 5.19 before 5.19.2
Description An issue was discovered in ksmbd in the Linux kernel, related to a memory leak due to the omission of a kfree call in certain smb2 handle negotiate error conditions. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to cause a denial-of-service when handling SMB2 NEGOTIATE requests. The vulnerable code is located in fs/ksmbd/smb2pdu.c.
Recommendations For Linux kernel versions 5.15 through 5.19 before 5.19.2, update to version 5.19.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the smb2 handle negotiate function to minimize the risk of exploitation.
