Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: fix a missing return value check bug In the smb2_send_interim_resp(), if ksmbd_alloc_work_struct() fails to allocate a node, it returns a NULL pointer to the in_work pointer. This can lead to an illegal memory write of in_work->response_buf when allocate_interim_rsp_buf() attempts to perform a kzalloc() on it. To address this issue, incorporating a check for the return value of ksmbd_alloc_work_struct() ensures that the function returns immediately upon allocation failure, thereby preventing the aforementioned illegal memory access.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 5.15.145 < 5.16) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.1.71 < 6.1.125) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.6 < 6.6.72) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.12.10) • linux linux kernel 6.13
