[PATCH 6.18 39/55] smb: client: require a full NFS mode SID before reading mode bits

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

6.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Michael Bommarito <michael.bommarito@gmail.com>

commit 2757ad3e4b6f9e0fed4c7739594e702abc5cab21 upstream.

parse_dacl() treats an ACE SID matching sid_unix_NFS_mode as an NFS
mode SID and reads sid.sub_auth[2] to recover the mode bits.

That assumes the ACE carries three subauthorities, but compare_sids()
only compares min(a, b) subauthorities.  A malicious server can return
an ACE with num_subauth = 2 and sub_auth[] = {88, 3}, which still
matches sid_unix_NFS_mode and then drives the sub_auth[2] read four
bytes past the end of the ACE.

Require num_subauth >= 3 before treating the ACE as an NFS mode SID.
This keeps the fix local to the special-SID mode path without changing
compare_sids() semantics for the rest of cifsacl.
