Subject: [PATCH 6.18 025/686] smb: client: validate SMB1 EA list bounds before parsing
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2026 10:42:38 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261113153821.818369065@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261113153820.902362109@linuxfoundation.org>
6.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Ratnaker Gautam <ratnaker.gautam@kuleuven.be>
[ Upstream commit ddc7a7e1eeb116ccaf010a6f1fb6ab927f3f888d ]
CIFSSMBQAllEAs() checks the server-provided EA list length by adding it
to the response pointer. On 32-bit systems, a positive length can wrap
the pointer and pass the comparison. The parser then walks outside the
received response while reading the next FEA header.
A response with a list length of 0x40000000 reproduces this as a native
i386 page fault and kernel panic from listxattr() against an SMB1
server.
Check that the EA list starts within the SMB byte area before reading
its header. Keep its length unsigned and compare it with the bytes left
in the response without pointer addition.
SMB1 is not negotiated by default and requires an explicit vers=1.0
mount.
Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
