4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Daniel N Pettersson <danielnp@xxxxxxxx> commit 9aca7e454415f7878b28524e76bebe1170911a88 upstream. Autonegotiation gives a security settings mismatch error if the SMB server selects an SMBv3 dialect that isn't SMB3.02. The exact error is "protocol revalidation - security settings mismatch". This can be tested using Samba v4.2 or by setting the global Samba setting max protocol = SMB3_00. The check that fails in smb3_validate_negotiate is the dialect verification of the negotiate info response. This is because it tries to verify against the protocol_id in the global smbdefault_values. The protocol_id in smbdefault_values is SMB3.02. In SMB2_negotiate the protocol_id in smbdefault_values isn't updated, it is global so it probably shouldn't be, but server->dialect is. This patch changes the check in smb3_validate_negotiate to use server->dialect instead of server->vals->protocol_id. The patch works with autonegotiate and when using a specific version in the vers mount option.
