FKIE_CVE-2025-22037
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-04-16 15:15 - Updated: 2026-10-30 13:17
Severity
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix null pointer dereference in alloc_preauth_hash()
The Client send malformed smb2 negotiate request. ksmbd return error
response. Subsequently, the client can send smb2 session setup even
thought conn->preauth_info is not allocated.
This patch add KSMBD_SESS_NEED_SETUP status of connection to ignore
session setup request if smb2 negotiate phase is not complete.
