smb_inherit_dacl() walks the parent directory DACL loaded from the
security descriptor xattr. It verifies that each ACE contains the fixed
SID header before using it, but does not verify that the variable-length
SID described by sid.num_subauth is fully contained in the ACE.
A malformed inheritable ACE can advertise more subauthorities than are
present in the ACE. compare_sids() may then read past the ACE.
smb_set_ace() also clamps the copied destination SID, but used the
unchecked source SID count to compute the inherited ACE size. That could
advance the temporary inherited ACE buffer pointer and nt_size accounting
past the allocated buffer.
Fix this by validating the parent ACE SID count and SID length before
using the SID during inheritance. Compute the inherited ACE size from the
copied SID so the size matches the bounded destination SID. Reject the
inherited DACL if size accumulation would overflow smb_acl.size or the
security descriptor allocation size.

Non-pipe shares must have a duplicated backing path before they can be
published. share_config_request() currently calls kstrndup() for that
path, but if the allocation fails it leaves ret unchanged. If veto list
parsing succeeds and share->name exists, the partially built share is
still inserted into the global share table with share->path left NULL.
A later share-root SMB2 create uses tree_conn->share_conf->path as the
lookup root. If the share was published with path == NULL, that request
passes a NULL pathname into do_getname_kernel()/strlen() and can crash
the ksmbd worker.
Set ret = -ENOMEM when path duplication fails so the incomplete share is
destroyed before publication.

ksmbd_durable_scavenger() has two related races against any walker
that iterates f_ci->m_fp_list, including ksmbd_lookup_fd_inode()
(used by ksmbd_vfs_rename) and the share-mode checks in
fs/smb/server/smb_common.c.
(1) fp->node list-head reuse. Durable-preserved handles can remain
linked on f_ci->m_fp_list after session teardown so share-mode checks
still see them while the handle is reconnectable. The scavenger
collected expired handles by adding fp->node to a local
scavenger_list after removing them from the global durable idr.
Because fp->node is the same list_head used by m_fp_list,
list_add(&fp->node, &scavenger_list) overwrites the m_fp_list links
and corrupts both lists. CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST can report this on the
share-mode walk path.
(2) Refcount race against m_fp_list walkers. The scavenger qualifies
an expired durable handle with atomic_read(&fp->refcount) > 1 and
fp->conn under global_ft.lock, removes fp from global_ft, then drops
global_ft.lock before unlinking fp from m_fp_list and freeing it.
During that gap fp is still linked on m_fp_list with f_state ==
FP_INITED. ksmbd_lookup_fd_inode() under m_lock read calls
ksmbd_fp_get() (atomic_inc_not_zero on refcount that is still 1) and
takes a live reference; the scavenger then unlinks and frees fp
while the holder owns a reference, leading to UAF on the holder's
subsequent ksmbd_fd_put() and on any field reads performed by a
concurrent share-mode walker that iterates m_fp_list without taking
ksmbd_fp_get() (smb_check_perm_dleases-like paths).
Fix both:
* Stop reusing fp->node as a scavenger-private list node. Remove
one expired handle from global_ft under global_ft.lock, take an
explicit transient reference, drop the lock, unlink fp->node
from m_fp_list under f_ci->m_lock, then drop both the durable
lifetime and transient references with atomic_sub_and_test(2,
&fp->refcount). If the scavenger is the last putter the close
runs there; otherwise an in-flight holder that already raced
through the m_fp_list lookup owns the final close via its
ksmbd_fd_put() path. The one-at-a-time disposal can rescan the
durable idr when multiple handles expire in the same pass, but
durable scavenging is a background expiration path and the final
full scan recomputes min_timeout before the next wait.
* Clear fp->persistent_id inside __ksmbd_remove_durable_fd() right
after idr_remove(), so a delayed final close from a holder that
snatched fp does not re-issue idr_remove() on a persistent id
that idr_alloc_cyclic() in ksmbd_open_durable_fd() may have
already handed out to a brand-new durable handle.
* Bypass the per-conn open_files_count decrement in
__put_fd_final() when fp is detached from any session table
(fp->conn cleared by session_fd_check() at durable preserve --
paired with the volatile_id clear at unpublish, so checking
fp->conn alone is sufficient). The walker that owns the final
close runs from an unrelated work->conn whose
stats.open_files_count never tracked this durable fp; without
this guard the holder would underflow that unrelated counter.
The two races are folded into one patch because patch (1) alone
cleans up the corrupted list but leaves a deterministic UAF window
for m_fp_list walkers that the transient-reference and
persistent_id discipline in (2) close; bisecting onto an
intermediate state would land on a UAF that pre-patch chaos merely
made less reproducible.
Validation:
* CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST coverage for the list_head reuse path.
* KASAN-enabled direct SMB2 durable-handle coverage that exercised
ksmbd_durable_scavenger() and non-NULL ksmbd_lookup_fd_inode()

__close_file_table_ids() is the per-session teardown that closes every
fp belonging to a session (or to one tree connect on that session) by
walking the session's volatile-id idr. The current loop has three
related problems on busy or racing workloads:
* Sleeping under ft->lock. The session-teardown skip callback,
session_fd_check(), already sleeps in ksmbd_vfs_copy_durable_owner()
-> kstrdup(GFP_KERNEL) and down_write(&fp->f_ci->m_lock) (a
rw_semaphore). Running the callback inside write_lock(&ft->lock)
trips CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP / CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING on a
durable-fd workload.
* Refcount accounting blind to f_state. The unconditional
atomic_dec_and_test(&fp->refcount) does not distinguish
FP_INITED (idr-owned reference still intact) from FP_CLOSED (an
earlier ksmbd_close_fd() already consumed the idr-owned reference
while leaving fp in the idr because a holder kept refcount
non-zero). When the latter races with teardown the same path
over-decrements into a holder reference and ksmbd_fd_put() later
UAFs that holder.
* FP_NEW window. Between __open_id() publishing fp into the
session idr and ksmbd_update_fstate(..., FP_INITED) committing the
transition at the end of smb2_open(), an fp is in FP_NEW and an
intervening teardown that takes a transient reference and
unpublishes the volatile id leaves the original idr-owned
reference orphaned -- the opener is unaware that fp has been
unpublished, returns success to the client, and the fp leaks at
refcount = 1.
Refactor __close_file_table_ids() to take a transient reference on fp
and unpublish fp from the session idr *under ft->lock* before calling
skip() outside the lock. A transient ref protects lifetime but not
concurrent field mutation, so the idr_remove() is what keeps
__ksmbd_lookup_fd() through this session's idr from granting a new
ksmbd_fp_get() reference to an fp whose fp->conn / fp->tcon /
fp->volatile_id / op->conn / lock_list links are about to be rewritten
by session_fd_check(). Durable reconnect is unaffected because it
reaches fp through the global durable table (ksmbd_lookup_durable_fd
-> global_ft).
Decide n_to_drop together with any FP_INITED -> FP_CLOSED transition
under ft->lock so teardown and ksmbd_close_fd() never both consume the
idr-owned reference. See ksmbd_mark_fp_closed() for the per-state
accounting. For the FP_NEW path to be safe, the opener has to learn
that fp was unpublished: ksmbd_update_fstate() now returns -ENOENT
when an FP_NEW -> FP_INITED transition finds f_state already advanced
or the volatile id cleared (both committed by teardown under
ft->lock); smb2_open() propagates that as STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_INVALID
and drops the original reference via ksmbd_fd_put().
The list removal cannot be left for a deferred final putter because
fp->volatile_id has already been cleared and __ksmbd_remove_fd() will
intentionally skip both idr_remove() and list_del_init(). Move the
m_fp_list unlink in __ksmbd_remove_fd() above the volatile-id check so
that an FP_NEW fp that happened to be added to m_fp_list (smb2_open()
adds fp->node before ksmbd_update_fstate() runs) is still cleaned up
on the deferred putter path; list_del_init() on an empty node is a
no-op and remains safe for fps that were never added.
Add a defensive guard in session_fd_check() that refuses non-FP_INITED
fps so that even if a teardown reaches an FP_NEW fp it falls into the
close branch (where the n_to_drop = 1 accounting keeps the opener's
reference alive) instead of the durable-preserve branch (which mutates
fp->conn / fp->tcon).
Validation on a debug kernel additionally built with CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST
and CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_WORK used a same-session two-tcon workload
(open/write storm on one tcon, 50 tree disconnects on the other) and
reported no list-corruption, work_struct ODEBUG, sleep-in-atomic,
lockdep or kmemleak reports. Reverting only the
__close_file_table_ids() hunk while keeping a forced-is_reconnectable()
harness produced the expected sleep-in-atomic at vfs_cache.c:1095,
confirming the ft->lock-out-of-sleepable-skip discipline.
KASAN-enabled direct SMB2 coverage with durable handles enabled
exercised ksmbd_close_tree_conn_fds(), ksmbd_close_session_fds(),
the FP_NEW failure path, tree_conn_fd_check(), and a non-zero
session_fd_check() durable-preserve return. This produced no KASAN,
DEBUG_LIST, ODEBUG, or WARNING reports.

ksmbd_conn_free() is one of four sites that can observe the last
refcount drop of a struct ksmbd_conn. The other three
fs/smb/server/connection.c ksmbd_conn_r_count_dec()
fs/smb/server/oplock.c __free_opinfo()
fs/smb/server/vfs_cache.c session_fd_check()
end the conn with a bare kfree(), skipping
ida_destroy(&conn->async_ida) and
conn->transport->ops->free_transport(conn->transport). Whenever one
of them is the last putter, the embedded async_ida and the entire
transport struct leak -- for TCP, that is also the struct socket and
the kvec iov.
__free_opinfo() being a final putter is not theoretical. opinfo_put()
queues the callback via call_rcu(&opinfo->rcu, free_opinfo_rcu), so
ksmbd_server_terminate_conn() can deposit N opinfo releases in RCU and
have ksmbd_conn_free() run in the handler thread before any of them
fire. ksmbd_conn_free() then observes refcnt > 0 and short-circuits;
the last RCU-delivered __free_opinfo() falls onto its bare kfree(conn)
branch and the transport is lost.
A/B validation in a QEMU/virtme guest, mounting //127.0.0.1/testshare:

pre-patch 20 20 10 160 7
with patch 20 20 20 160 0
Pre-patch conn_free=20 with tcp_free=10 directly demonstrates the
bare-kfree paths skipping transport cleanup; kmemleak backtraces point
into struct tcp_transport / iov. With this patch tcp_free matches
conn_free at 20/20 and kmemleak is clean.
Move the per-struct final release into __ksmbd_conn_release_work() and
route the three bare-kfree final-put sites through a new
ksmbd_conn_put(). Those sites now pair ida_destroy() and
free_transport() with kfree(conn) regardless of which holder happens
to release the last reference. stop_sessions() only triggers the
transport shutdown and does not itself drop the last conn reference,
so it is unaffected.
The centralized release reaches sock_release() -> tcp_close() ->
lock_sock_nested() (might_sleep) from every final putter, including
__free_opinfo() invoked from an RCU softirq callback, which trips
CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP. Defer the release to a dedicated
ksmbd_conn_wq workqueue so ksmbd_conn_put() is safe from any
non-sleeping context.
Make ksmbd_file own a strong connection reference while fp->conn is
non-NULL so durable-preserve and final-close paths cannot dereference
a stale connection. ksmbd_open_fd() and ksmbd_reopen_durable_fd()
take the reference via ksmbd_conn_get() (the latter also reorders the
fp->conn / fp->tcon assignments before __open_id() so the published fp
is never observed with fp->conn == NULL); session_fd_check() and
__ksmbd_close_fd() drop it via ksmbd_conn_put(). With that invariant,
session_fd_check() can take a local conn pointer once and use it
across the m_op_list and lock_list iterations even though op->conn
puts may otherwise drop the last reference.
At module exit the workqueue is flushed and destroyed after
rcu_barrier(), so any release queued by a trailing RCU callback is
drained before the inode hash and module text go away.

stop_sessions() walks conn_list with hash_for_each() and, for every
entry, drops conn_list_lock across the transport ->shutdown() call
before re-acquiring the read lock to continue the loop. The hash
walk relies on cross-iteration state (the current bucket and the
hlist position), which is not preserved across unlock/relock: if
another thread performs a list mutation during the unlocked window,
the ongoing iteration becomes unreliable and can re-visit
connections that have already been handled or skip connections that
have not. The outer `if (!hash_empty(conn_list)) goto again;` retry
masks the symptom in the common case but does not address the
unsafe iteration itself.
Reframe the loop so it never relies on iterator state across
unlock/relock. Under conn_list_lock held for read, pick the first
connection whose ->shutdown() has not yet been issued by this path,
pin it by taking an extra reference, record that fact on the
connection and mark it EXITING while still inside the locked walk,
then drop the lock. Then call ->shutdown() outside the lock, drop
the pin (freeing the connection if the handler already released its
reference), and restart from the top.
Use a new per-connection flag, conn->stop_called, as the "shutdown
issued from stop_sessions()" marker rather than reusing the status
state. ksmbd_conn_set_exiting() is also invoked by
ksmbd_sessions_deregister() on sibling channels of a multichannel
session without issuing a transport shutdown, so treating
KSMBD_SESS_EXITING as "already handled here" would skip connections
that still need shutdown() to wake their handler out of recv(),
leaving the outer retry waiting indefinitely for the hash to drain.
stop_sessions() is serialised by init_lock in
ksmbd_conn_transport_destroy(), so writing stop_called under the
read lock has no other writer.
Set EXITING inside the locked walk so the selection, the stop_called
marker, and the status transition all happen together, and guard
against regressing a connection that has already advanced to
KSMBD_SESS_RELEASING on its own (for example, if the handler exited
its receive loop for an unrelated reason between teardown steps).
When the pin drop is the last put, release the transport and pair
ida_destroy(&target->async_ida) with the ida_init() done in
ksmbd_conn_alloc(), so stop_sessions() retiring a connection on its
own does not leak the xarray backing of the embedded async_ida.
The outer retry with msleep() is kept to wait for handler threads to
reach ksmbd_conn_free() and drain the hash.
Observed with an instrumented build that logs one line per visit and
widens the unlocked window before ->shutdown() by 200 ms, under
five concurrent cifs mounts (nosharesock, one connection each):
* Current code: the same connection address is revisited many
times during a single stop_sessions() call and ->shutdown() is
invoked well beyond the number of live connections before the
hash finally drains.
* Rewritten code: each live connection produces exactly one
->shutdown() call; the function returns as soon as the hash is
empty.
Functional teardown via `ksmbd.control --shutdown` with the same
five mounts completes cleanly on the rewritten path.
Performance is observably unchanged. Tearing down N concurrent
nosharesock cifs connections with `ksmbd.control --shutdown` +
`rmmod ksmbd` takes essentially the same wall time before and after
the rewrite:
N before after
10 4.93s 5.34s
30 7.34s 7.03s
50 7.31s 7.01s (3-run avg: 7.04s vs 7.25s)
100 6.98s 6.78s
200 6.77s 6.89s
and the number of ->shutdown() calls equals the number of live
connections on both paths when the race is not widened. The
teardown is dominated by the msleep(100)-based outer retry waiting
for handler threads to run ksmbd_conn_free(), not by the iteration
itself; the restartable loop's worst-case O(N^2) visit cost is in
the microseconds even at N=200 and sits far below the msleep(100)
granularity.
Applied alone on top of ksmbd-for-next-next, this patch does not
introduce a new leak site. Under the same reproducer (10x
concurrent-holders + ss -K + ksmbd.control --shutdown + rmmod), the
tree still shows the pre-existing per-connection transport leak
count that arises when the last refcount drop lands in one of
ksmbd_conn_r_count_dec(), __free_opinfo() or session_fd_check() -
all of which end with a bare kfree() today. kmemleak backtraces
for the unreferenced objects point into the TCP accept path
(sk_clone -> inet_csk_clone_lock, sock_alloc_inode) and none
involve stop_sessions(). Plugging those bare-kfree sites is the
responsibility of the follow-up patch.

When the binding SESSION_SETUP sets conn->binding = true, the flag stays
set after the call so that the global session lookup in
ksmbd_session_lookup_all() can find the session, which was not added to
conn->sessions. Because the flag is connection-wide, the global lookup
path will also resolve any other session by id if asked.
Tighten the global lookup so that the returned session must have this
connection registered in its channel xarray (sess->ksmbd_chann_list).
The channel entry is installed by the existing binding_session path in
ntlm_authenticate()/krb5_authenticate() when a SESSION_SETUP completes
successfully, so this condition is a strict equivalent of "this
connection has been accepted as a channel of this session". Connections
that have not bound to a given session cannot reach it via the global

ksmbd_lookup_fd_cguid() returns a ksmbd_file with its refcount
incremented via ksmbd_fp_get(). parse_durable_handle_context() in
the DURABLE_REQ_V2 case properly releases this reference on every
path inside the ClientGUID-match branch, either by calling
ksmbd_put_durable_fd() or by transferring ownership to dh_info->fp
for a successful reconnect. However, when an entry exists in the
global file table with the same CreateGuid but a different
ClientGUID, the code simply falls through to the new-open path
without dropping the reference obtained from ksmbd_lookup_fd_cguid().
Per MS-SMB2 section 3.3.5.9.10 ("Handling the
SMB2_CREATE_DURABLE_HANDLE_REQUEST_V2 Create Context"), the server
MUST locate an Open whose Open.CreateGuid matches the request's
CreateGuid AND whose Open.ClientGuid matches the ClientGuid of the
connection that received the request. If no such Open is found, the
server MUST continue with the normal open execution phase. A
CreateGuid hit with a ClientGUID mismatch is therefore the
"Open not found" case: proceeding with a new open is correct, but
the reference obtained purely as a side effect of the lookup must
not be leaked.
Repeated requests that hit this mismatch pin global_ft entries,
prevent __ksmbd_close_fd() from ever running for the corresponding
files, and defeat the durable scavenger, leading to long-lived
resource leaks.
Release the reference in the mismatch path and clear dh_info->fp so
subsequent logic does not mistake a non-matching lookup result for
a reconnect target.

rcount is intended to be connection-specific: 2 for curr_conn, 1 for
every other connection sharing the same session. However, it is
initialised only once before the hash iteration and is never reset.
After the loop visits curr_conn, later sibling connections are also
checked against rcount == 2, so a sibling with req_running == 1 is
incorrectly treated as idle. This makes the outcome depend on the
hash iteration order: whether a given sibling is checked against the
loose (< 2) or the strict (< 1) threshold is decided by whether it
happens to be visited before or after curr_conn.
The function's contract is "wait until every connection sharing this
session is idle" so that destroy_previous_session() can safely tear
the session down. The latched rcount violates that contract and
reopens the teardown race window the wait logic was meant to close:
destroy_previous_session() may proceed before sibling channels have
actually quiesced, overlapping session teardown with in-flight work
on those connections.
Recompute rcount inside the loop so each connection is compared
against its own threshold regardless of iteration order.
This is a code-inspection fix for an iteration-order-dependent logic
error; a targeted reproducer would require SMB3 multichannel with
in-flight work on a sibling channel landing after curr_conn in hash
order, which is not something that can be triggered reliably.

smb2_get_ea() applies 4-byte alignment padding via memset() after
writing each EA entry. The bounds check on buf_free_len is performed
before the value memcpy, but the alignment memset fires unconditionally
afterward with no check on remaining space.
When the EA value exactly fills the remaining buffer (buf_free_len == 0
after value subtraction), the alignment memset writes 1-3 NUL bytes
past the buf_free_len boundary. In compound requests where the response
buffer is shared across commands, the first command (e.g., READ) can
consume most of the buffer, leaving a tight remainder for the QUERY_INFO
EA response. The alignment memset then overwrites past the physical
kvmalloc allocation into adjacent kernel heap memory.
Add a bounds check before the alignment memset to ensure buf_free_len
can accommodate the padding bytes.
This is the same bug pattern fixed by commit beef2634f8 ("ksmbd: fix
potencial OOB in get_file_all_info() for compound requests") and
commit fda9522ed6 ("ksmbd: fix OOB write in QUERY_INFO for compound
requests"), both of which added bounds checks before unconditional
writes in QUERY_INFO response handlers.

set_posix_acl_entries_dacl() and set_ntacl_dacl() accumulate ACE sizes
in u16 variables. When a file has many POSIX ACL entries, the
accumulated size can wrap past 65535, causing the pointer arithmetic
(char *)pndace + *size to land within already-written ACEs. Subsequent
writes then overwrite earlier entries, and pndacl->size gets a
truncated value.
Use check_add_overflow() at each accumulation point to detect the
wrap before it corrupts the buffer, consistent with existing
check_mul_overflow() usage elsewhere in smbacl.c.

In smb2_open, the call to ksmbd_put_durable_fd(fp) drops the reference
to the durable file descriptor early during the durable reconnect
process. If an error occurs subsequently (eg, ksmbd_iov_pin_rsp fails)
or a scavenger accesses the file, it leads to a use-after-free when
accessing fp properties (eg fp->create_time).
Move the single put to the end of the function below err_out2 so fp
stays valid until smb2_open returns.

smb_inherit_dacl() trusts the on-disk num_aces value from the parent
directory's DACL xattr and uses it to size a heap allocation:
aces_base = kmalloc(sizeof(struct smb_ace) * num_aces * 2, ...);
num_aces is a u16 read from le16_to_cpu(parent_pdacl->num_aces)
without checking that it is consistent with the declared pdacl_size.
An authenticated client whose parent directory's security.NTACL is
tampered (e.g. via offline xattr corruption or a concurrent path that
bypasses parse_dacl()) can present num_aces = 65535 with minimal
actual ACE data. This causes a ~8 MB allocation (not kzalloc, so
uninitialized) that the subsequent loop only partially populates, and
may also overflow the three-way size_t multiply on 32-bit kernels.
Additionally, the ACE walk loop uses the weaker
offsetof(struct smb_ace, access_req) minimum size check rather than
the minimum valid on-wire ACE size, and does not reject ACEs whose
declared size is below the minimum.
Reproduced on UML + KASAN + LOCKDEP against the real ksmbd code path.
A legitimate mount.cifs client creates a parent directory over SMB
(ksmbd writes a valid security.NTACL xattr), then the NTACL blob on
the backing filesystem is rewritten to set num_aces = 0xFFFF while
keeping the posix_acl_hash bytes intact so ksmbd_vfs_get_sd_xattr()'s
hash check still passes. A subsequent SMB2 CREATE of a child under
that parent drives smb2_open() into smb_inherit_dacl() (share has
"vfs objects = acl_xattr" set), which fails the page allocator:
WARNING: mm/page_alloc.c:5226 at __alloc_frozen_pages_noprof+0x46c/0x9c0

smb2_open+0x595d/0xabe0
handle_ksmbd_work+0x3d3/0x1140
With the patch applied the added guard rejects the tampered value
with -EINVAL before any large allocation runs, smb2_open() falls back
to smb2_create_sd_buffer(), and the child is created with a default
SD. No warning, no splat.
Fix by:
1. Validating num_aces against pdacl_size using the same formula
applied in parse_dacl().
2. Replacing the raw kmalloc(sizeof * num_aces * 2) with
kmalloc_array(num_aces * 2, sizeof(...)) for overflow-safe
allocation.
3. Tightening the per-ACE loop guard to require the minimum valid
ACE size (offsetof(smb_ace, sid) + CIFS_SID_BASE_SIZE) and
rejecting under-sized ACEs, matching the hardening in
smb_check_perm_dacl() and parse_dacl().
v1 -> v2:
- Replace the synthetic test-module splat in the changelog with a
real-path UML + KASAN reproduction driven through mount.cifs and
SMB2 CREATE; Namjae flagged the kcifs3_test_inherit_dacl_old name
in v1 since it does not exist in ksmbd.
- Drop the commit-hash citation from the code comment per Namjae's
review; keep the parse_dacl() pointer.

The global max_connections check in ksmbd's TCP accept path counts
the newly accepted connection with atomic_inc_return(), but then
rejects the connection when the result is greater than or equal to
server_conf.max_connections.
That makes the effective limit one smaller than configured. For
example:
- max_connections=1 rejects the first connection
- max_connections=2 allows only one connection
The per-IP limit in the same function uses <= correctly because it
counts only pre-existing connections. The global limit instead checks
the post-increment total, so it should reject only when that total
exceeds the configured maximum.
Fix this by changing the comparison from >= to >, so exactly
max_connections simultaneous connections are allowed and the next one
is rejected. This matches the documented meaning of max_connections
in fs/smb/server/ksmbd_netlink.h as the "Number of maximum simultaneous
connections".

Both ACE-walk loops in smb_check_perm_dacl() only guard against an
under-sized remaining buffer, not against an ACE whose declared
`ace->size` is smaller than the struct it claims to describe:
if (offsetof(struct smb_ace, access_req) > aces_size)
break;
ace_size = le16_to_cpu(ace->size);
if (ace_size > aces_size)
break;
The first check only requires the 4-byte ACE header to be in bounds;
it does not require access_req (4 bytes at offset 4) to be readable.
An attacker who has set a crafted DACL on a file they own can declare
ace->size == 4 with aces_size == 4, pass both checks, and then
granted |= le32_to_cpu(ace->access_req); /* upper loop */
compare_sids(&sid, &ace->sid); /* lower loop */
reads access_req at offset 4 (OOB by up to 4 bytes) and ace->sid at
offset 8 (OOB by up to CIFS_SID_BASE_SIZE + SID_MAX_SUB_AUTHORITIES
* 4 bytes).
Tighten both loops to require
ace_size >= offsetof(struct smb_ace, sid) + CIFS_SID_BASE_SIZE
which is the smallest valid on-wire ACE layout (4-byte header +
4-byte access_req + 8-byte sid base with zero sub-auths). Also
reject ACEs whose sid.num_subauth exceeds SID_MAX_SUB_AUTHORITIES
before letting compare_sids() dereference sub_auth[] entries.
parse_sec_desc() already enforces an equivalent check (lines 441-448);
smb_check_perm_dacl() simply grew weaker validation over time.
Reachability: authenticated SMB client with permission to set an ACL
on a file. On a subsequent CREATE against that file, the kernel
walks the stored DACL via smb_check_perm_dacl() and triggers the
OOB read. Not pre-auth, and the OOB read is not reflected to the
attacker, but KASAN reports and kernel state corruption are
possible.

ipc_validate_msg() computes the expected message size for each
response type by adding (or multiplying) attacker-controlled fields
from the daemon response to a fixed struct size in unsigned int
arithmetic. Three cases can overflow:
KSMBD_EVENT_RPC_REQUEST:
msg_sz = sizeof(struct ksmbd_rpc_command) + resp->payload_sz;
KSMBD_EVENT_SHARE_CONFIG_REQUEST:
msg_sz = sizeof(struct ksmbd_share_config_response) +
resp->payload_sz;
KSMBD_EVENT_LOGIN_REQUEST_EXT:
msg_sz = sizeof(struct ksmbd_login_response_ext) +
resp->ngroups * sizeof(gid_t);
resp->payload_sz is __u32 and resp->ngroups is __s32. Each addition
can wrap in unsigned int; the multiplication by sizeof(gid_t) mixes
signed and size_t, so a negative ngroups is converted to SIZE_MAX
before the multiply. A wrapped value of msg_sz that happens to
equal entry->msg_sz bypasses the size check on the next line, and
downstream consumers (smb2pdu.c:6742 memcpy using rpc_resp->payload_sz,
kmemdup in ksmbd_alloc_user using resp_ext->ngroups) then trust the
unverified length.
Use check_add_overflow() on the RPC_REQUEST and SHARE_CONFIG_REQUEST
paths to detect integer overflow without constraining functional
payload size; userspace ksmbd-tools grows NDR responses in 4096-byte
chunks for calls like NetShareEnumAll, so a hard transport cap is
unworkable on the response side. For LOGIN_REQUEST_EXT, reject
resp->ngroups outside the signed [0, NGROUPS_MAX] range up front and
report the error from ipc_validate_msg() so it fires at the IPC
boundary; with that bound the subsequent multiplication and addition
stay well below UINT_MAX. The now-redundant ngroups check and
pr_err in ksmbd_alloc_user() are removed.
This is the response-side analogue of aab98e2dbd ("ksmbd: fix
integer overflows on 32 bit systems"), which hardened the request
side.

Commit 77ffbcac4e ("smb: server: fix leak of active_num_conn in
ksmbd_tcp_new_connection()") addressed the kthread_run() failure
path. The earlier alloc_transport() == NULL path in the same
function has the same leak, is reachable pre-authentication via any
TCP connect to port 445, and was empirically reproduced on UML
(ARCH=um, v7.0-rc7): a small number of forced allocation failures
were sufficient to put ksmbd into a state where every subsequent
connection attempt was rejected for the remainder of the boot.
ksmbd_kthread_fn() increments active_num_conn before calling
ksmbd_tcp_new_connection() and discards the return value, so when
alloc_transport() returns NULL the socket is released and -ENOMEM
returned without decrementing the counter. Each such failure
permanently consumes one slot from the max_connections pool; once
cumulative failures reach the cap, atomic_inc_return() hits the
threshold on every subsequent accept and every new connection is
rejected. The counter is only reset by module reload.
An unauthenticated remote attacker can drive the server toward the
memory pressure that makes alloc_transport() fail by holding open
connections with large RFC1002 lengths up to MAX_STREAM_PROT_LEN
(0x00FFFFFF); natural transient allocation failures on a loaded
host produce the same drift more slowly.
Mirror the existing rollback pattern in ksmbd_kthread_fn(): on the
alloc_transport() failure path, decrement active_num_conn gated on
server_conf.max_connections.
Repro details: with the patch reverted, forced alloc_transport()
NULL returns leaked counter slots and subsequent connection
attempts -- including legitimate connects issued after the
forced-fail window had closed -- were all rejected with "Limit the
maximum number of connections". With this patch applied, the same
connect sequence produces no rejections and the counter cycles
cleanly between zero and one on every accept.

This is basically a copy of smb_direct_post_recv_credits(), but
there are several improvements compared to the existing function:
1. We calculate the number of missing posted buffers by getting the
difference between recv_io.credits.target and recv_io.posted.count.
Instead of the difference between recv_io.credits.target
and recv_io.credits.count, because recv_io.credits.count is
only updated once a message is send to the peer.
It was not really a problem before, because we have
a fixed number smbdirect_recv_io buffers, so the
loop terminated when smbdirect_connection_get_recv_io()
returns NULL.
But using recv_io.posted.count makes it easier to
understand.
2. In order to tell the peer about the newly posted buffer
and grant the credits, we only trigger the send immediate
when we're not granting only the last possible credit.
This is mostly a difference relative to the servers
smb_direct_post_recv_credits() implementation,
which should avoid useless ping pong messages.
