Severity ?
8.1 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: fix Out-of-Bounds Read in ksmbd_vfs_stream_read An offset from client could be a negative value, It could lead to an out-of-bounds read from the stream_buf. Note that this issue is coming when setting 'vfs objects = streams_xattr parameter' in ksmbd.conf.

no race, no memory-layout luck, and no condition outside the attacker\u0027s control is required.\\nPR:L - `smb2_check_user_session()` requires an established SMB2 session and tree connect before SMB2_READ is dispatched, so the attacker needs credentials for the share (or a guest-ok share), i.e. the privileges of an ordinary SMB user.\\nUI:N - The entire sequence (CREATE with a stream name, WRITE, READ with negative offset) is driven by the attacker\u0027s own SMB connection; no administrator or user on the target has to do anything.\\nS:U - The out-of-bounds read and its disclosure occur wholly within the kernel\u0027s security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\\nC:H - The attacker-controlled 64-bit negative displacement turns `memcpy(buf, \u0026stream_buf[*pos], count)` into an effectively arbitrary kernel-memory read of up to 4 MB per request, and the bytes are returned directly to the remote client in the READ response \\u2014 disclosing kernel pointers, credentials, keys, and other users\u0027 cached file data, repeatably.\\nI:N - The defect is purely a read; the destination `aux_payload_buf` is `kvzalloc(length)` with `count \u003c= length`, so no kernel memory is written or corrupted by this bug.\\nA:H - A large negative offset makes the kernel `memcpy` from an unmapped or invalid address, producing an unhandled kernel page fault/oops that kills the ksmbd worker thread and panics the box on `panic_on_oops` configurations; it can be retriggered at will.\"}]}], \"affected\": [{\"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\", \"vendor\": \"Linux\", \"product\": \"Linux\", \"versions\": [{\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"0626e6641f6b467447c81dd7678a69c66f7746cf\", \"lessThan\": \"6bd1bf0e8c42f10a9a9679a4c103a9032d30594d\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"0626e6641f6b467447c81dd7678a69c66f7746cf\", \"lessThan\": \"de4d790dcf53be41736239d7ee63849a16ff5d10\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"0626e6641f6b467447c81dd7678a69c66f7746cf\", \"lessThan\": \"27de4295522e9a33e4a3fc72f7b8193df9eebe41\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"0626e6641f6b467447c81dd7678a69c66f7746cf\", \"lessThan\": \"81eed631935f2c52cdaf6691c6d48e0b06e8ad73\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"0626e6641f6b467447c81dd7678a69c66f7746cf\", \"lessThan\": \"fc342cf86e2dc4d2edb0fc2ff5e28b6c7845adb9\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}], \"programFiles\": [\"fs/smb/server/smb2pdu.c\"], \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\"}, {\"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\", \"vendor\": \"Linux\", \"product\": \"Linux\", \"versions\": [{\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"5.15\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"0\", \"lessThan\": \"5.15\", \"versionType\": \"semver\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"5.15.176\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"5.15.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"6.1.120\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.1.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"6.6.66\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.6.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"6.12.5\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.12.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"6.13\", \"versionType\": \"original_commit_for_fix\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"*\"}], \"programFiles\": [\"fs/smb/server/smb2pdu.c\"], \"defaultStatus\": \"affected\"}], \"references\": [{\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6bd1bf0e8c42f10a9a9679a4c103a9032d30594d\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/de4d790dcf53be41736239d7ee63849a16ff5d10\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/27de4295522e9a33e4a3fc72f7b8193df9eebe41\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/81eed631935f2c52cdaf6691c6d48e0b06e8ad73\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/fc342cf86e2dc4d2edb0fc2ff5e28b6c7845adb9\"}], \"x_generator\": {\"engine\": \"bippy-1.2.0\"}, \"descriptions\": [{\"lang\": \"en\", \"value\": \"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\\n\\nksmbd: fix Out-of-Bounds Read in ksmbd_vfs_stream_read\\n\\nAn offset from client could be a negative value, It could lead\\nto an out-of-bounds read from the stream_buf.\\nNote that this issue is coming when setting\\n\u0027vfs objects = streams_xattr parameter\u0027 in ksmbd.conf.\"}], \"cpeApplicability\": [{\"nodes\": [{\"negate\": false, \"cpeMatch\": [{\"criteria\": \"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\", \"vulnerable\": true, \"versionEndExcluding\": \"5.15.176\", \"versionStartIncluding\": \"5.15\"}, {\"criteria\": \"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\", \"vulnerable\": true, \"versionEndExcluding\": \"6.1.120\", \"versionStartIncluding\": \"5.15\"}, {\"criteria\": \"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\", \"vulnerable\": true, \"versionEndExcluding\": \"6.6.66\", \"versionStartIncluding\": \"5.15\"}, {\"criteria\": \"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\", \"vulnerable\": true, \"versionEndExcluding\": \"6.12.5\", \"versionStartIncluding\": \"5.15\"}, {\"criteria\": \"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\", \"vulnerable\": true, \"versionEndExcluding\": \"6.13\", \"versionStartIncluding\": \"5.15\"}], \"operator\": \"OR\"}]}], \"providerMetadata\": {\"orgId\": \"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67\", \"shortName\": \"Linux\", \"dateUpdated\": \"2026-08-05T11:45:32.397Z\"}}}",
