Subject: [PATCH] smb/client: fix possible infinite loop and oob read in symlink_data()
Date: Wed, 13 May 2026 16:12:05 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260513081205.1018080-1-yebin10@huawei.com> (raw)

On 32-bit architectures, the infinite loop is as follows:

  len = p->ErrorDataLength == 0xfffffff8
  u8 *next = p->ErrorContextData + len
  next == p

On 32-bit architectures, the out-of-bounds read is as follows:

  len = p->ErrorDataLength == 0xfffffff0
  u8 *next = p->ErrorContextData + len
  next == (u8 *)p - 8
