[PATCH 5.11 050/342] cifs: fix out-of-bound memory access when calling smb3_notify() at mount point

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Eugene Korenevsky <ekorenevsky@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit a637f4ae037e1e0604ac008564934d63261a8fd1 upstream.

If smb3_notify() is called at mount point of CIFS, build_path_from_dentry()
returns the pointer to kmalloc-ed memory with terminating zero (this is
empty FileName to be passed to SMB2 CREATE request). This pointer is assigned
to the `path` variable.
Then `path + 1` (to skip first backslash symbol) is passed to
cifs_convert_path_to_utf16(). This is incorrect for empty path and causes
out-of-bound memory access.

Get rid of this "increase by one". cifs_convert_path_to_utf16() already
contains the check for leading backslash in the path.
