Subject: [PATCH v4 07/10] smb: client: fix missing iov bounds check in parse_posix_sids()
Date: Sun, 13 Sep 2026 16:45:05 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260913214510.3071370-8-sorenson@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260913214510.3071370-1-sorenson@redhat.com>

In parse_posix_sids(), sidsbuf_end is calculated using the server-supplied
out_len without being validated against the actual length of the received
iov (iov_len).

If a server provides an inflated out_len, sidsbuf_end will point past the
end of the iov. This defeats the bounds guards in posix_info_sid_size(),
allowing out-of-bounds reads into adjacent kernel memory.

Fix this by rejecting responses where the calculated sidsbuf_end would
exceed the received iov boundaries or cause pointer wraparound.

Fixes: a90f37e3d7ac ("smb: client: parse owner/group when creating reparse points")
