commit 7c88c1e0ab1704bacb751341ee6431c3be34b834 upstream. A kernel daemon should not rely on the current thread, which is unknown and might be malicious. Before this security fix, ksmbd_override_fsids() didn't correctly override FS UID/GID which means that arbitrary user space threads could trick the kernel to impersonate arbitrary users or groups for file system access checks, leading to file system access bypass. This was found while investigating truncate support for Landlock: https://lore.kernel.org/r/CAKYAXd8fpMJ7guizOjHgxEyyjoUwPsx3jLOPZP=wPYcbhkVXqA@mail.gmail.com Fixes: e2f34481b24d ("cifsd: add server-side procedures for SMB3") Cc: Hyunchul Lee <hyc.lee@gmail.com> Cc: Steve French <smfrench@gmail.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Mickaël Salaün <mic@digikod.net> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220929100447.108468-1-mic@digikod.net Acked-by: Christian Brauner (Microsoft) <brauner@kernel.org> Acked-by: Namjae Jeon <linkinjeon@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
