ksmbd: Fix the missing xa_store error check
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: Fix the missing xa_store error check xa_store() can fail, it return xa_err(-EINVAL) if the entry cannot be stored in an XArray, or xa_err(-ENOMEM) if memory allocation failed, so check error for xa_store() to fix it.

No local access is needed.\nAC:L - The code path is reached by an ordinary named-pipe open that the attacker issues at will, and the allocation-failure condition is one a remote attacker can drive on the memory-constrained embedded NAS/router platforms where ksmbd is typically deployed, by flooding connections, sessions and large request buffers.\nPR:N - Opening srvsvc/wkssvc/lsarpc on IPC$ is the classic SMB null-session path, and ksmbd\u0027s commonly shipped `map to guest = bad user` configuration lets an unauthenticated client obtain a guest session, tree-connect IPC$ and reach `create_smb2_pipe()` without any valid credentials.\nUI:N - The entire sequence (negotiate, session setup, tree connect to IPC$, SMB2_CREATE on a pipe) is initiated by the attacker against a listening server; no action by any local user or administrator is required.\nS:U - The leaked kernel object, the leaked IPC ID and the orphaned RPC handle all remain within the ksmbd server\u0027s own security authority; no VM, IOMMU or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:N - Nothing is read out of bounds and no kernel data is returned to the client; the client only learns an IDA-allocated small integer handle, which discloses no kernel memory contents or addresses.\nI:N - No memory is corrupted and no file or session data is modified \u2014 the ID is simply absent from the XArray, causing subsequent RPC operations on that handle to fail cleanly rather than alter state.\nA:H - Each occurrence permanently leaks a kernel slab object and a global IPC ID, and leaves an RPC pipe open forever in ksmbd.mountd because `ksmbd_session_rpc_close()`/`__session_rpc_close()` can never find the entry, so a remote attacker can repeatedly compound the leak into unrecoverable memory and handle exhaustion that takes the SMB server (and, on small-memory appliances, the system) down."

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.

Nomenclature

  • Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
  • Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
  • Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
  • Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
  • Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.

    Vulnerabilities whose description is nearest to this one in the vector space of the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-biencoder model. This is a similarity search over the bi-encoder space (plain cosine), not a classification, and it has no measured accuracy.
