Subject: [PATCH v3 06/11] smb: client: fix OOB struct field reads in move_smb2_ea_to_cifs()
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 10:31:42 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260826153147.4112943-7-sorenson@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260826153147.4112943-1-sorenson@redhat.com>
The while (src_size > 0) loop guard allows iteration after
next_entry_offset advances src past the point where a full struct fits
in src_size. Reads of ea_name_length and ea_value_length on the next
iteration are then out-of-bounds.
Require src_size >= sizeof(*src) before reading any struct field,
and reject next_entry_offset values that are smaller than
sizeof(*src) or that leave fewer than sizeof(*src) bytes remaining
after advancing.
For calls where the server returns an EA list with an invalid
next_entry_offset, the error returned to userspace changes from
-ENODATA (getxattr) or -ERANGE (listxattr) to -EIO, correctly
signalling a server protocol error rather than "attribute not present"
or "output buffer too small".
Fixes: 95907fea4fd8 ("cifs: Add support for reading attributes on SMB2+")
