Title
smb: client: restrict implied bcc[0] exemption to responses without data area
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb: client: restrict implied bcc[0] exemption to responses without data area smb2_check_message() has a long-standing quirk that accepts a response whose calculated length is one byte larger than the bytes actually received ("server can return one byte more due to implied bcc[0]"). This was introduced to accommodate servers that omit the trailing bcc[0] overlap byte when no data area is present. However, the exemption is applied unconditionally, regardless of whether the command actually carries a data area (has_smb2_data_area[]). When a response with a data area is subject to the +1 exemption, the reported data can extend one byte beyond the bytes actually received, yet smb2_check_message() still accepts it. The subsequent decoder then reads past the end of the receive buffer. This is reachable during NEGOTIATE and SESSION_SETUP, before the session is established. The resulting out-of-bounds reads are visible under KASAN when mounting against a non-conforming server; both the SPNEGO/negTokenInit and the NTLMSSP challenge decoders are affected: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in asn1_ber_decoder+0x16a7/0x1b00 Read of size 1 at addr ffff8880084d67c0 by task mount.cifs/81 CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 81 Comm: mount.cifs Not tainted 7.1.0-rc6 #1 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x4e/0x70 print_report+0x157/0x4c9 kasan_report+0xce/0x100 asn1_ber_decoder+0x16a7/0x1b00 decode_negTokenInit+0x19/0x30 SMB2_negotiate+0x31d9/0x4c90 cifs_negotiate_protocol+0x1f2/0x3f0 cifs_get_smb_ses+0x93f/0x17e0 cifs_mount_get_session+0x7f/0x3a0 cifs_mount+0xb4/0xcf0 cifs_smb3_do_mount+0x23a/0x1500 smb3_get_tree+0x3b0/0x630 vfs_get_tree+0x82/0x2d0 fc_mount+0x10/0x1b0 path_mount+0x50d/0x1de0 __x64_sys_mount+0x20b/0x270 do_syscall_64+0xee/0x590 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f </TASK> Allocated by task 85: kmem_cache_alloc_noprof+0x106/0x380 mempool_alloc_noprof+0x116/0x1e0 cifs_small_buf_get+0x31/0x80 allocate_buffers+0x10d/0x2b0 cifs_demultiplex_thread+0x1d5/0x1d50 kthread+0x2c6/0x390 ret_from_fork+0x36e/0x5a0 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of allocated 448-byte region [ffff8880084d6600, ffff8880084d67c0) which belongs to the cache cifs_small_rq of size 448 BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in kmemdup_noprof+0x36/0x50 Read of size 329 at addr ffff88800726c678 by task mount.cifs/89 CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 89 Comm: mount.cifs Tainted: G B 7.1.0-rc6 #1 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x4e/0x70 print_report+0x157/0x4c9 kasan_report+0xce/0x100 kasan_check_range+0x10f/0x1e0 __asan_memcpy+0x23/0x60 kmemdup_noprof+0x36/0x50 decode_ntlmssp_challenge+0x457/0x680 SMB2_sess_auth_rawntlmssp_negotiate+0x6f0/0xcb0 SMB2_sess_setup+0x219/0x4f0 cifs_setup_session+0x248/0xaf0 cifs_get_smb_ses+0xf79/0x17e0 cifs_mount_get_session+0x7f/0x3a0 cifs_mount+0xb4/0xcf0 cifs_smb3_do_mount+0x23a/0x1500 smb3_get_tree+0x3b0/0x630 vfs_get_tree+0x82/0x2d0 fc_mount+0x10/0x1b0 path_mount+0x50d/0x1de0 __x64_sys_mount+0x20b/0x270 do_syscall_64+0xee/0x590 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f </TASK> Allocated by task 93: kmem_cache_alloc_noprof+0x106/0x380 mempool_alloc_noprof+0x116/0x1e0 cifs_small_buf_get+0x31/0x80 allocate_buffers+0x10d/0x2b0 cifs_demultiplex_thread+0x1d5/0x1d50 kthread+0x2c6/0x390 ret_from_fork+0x36e/0x5a0 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 The buggy address is located 120 bytes inside of allocated 448-byte region [ffff88800726c600, ffff88800726c7c0) which belongs to the cache cifs_small_rq of size 448 Restrict the +1 exemption to responses that have no data area, so that it still covers the bcc[0] omission it was meant for.

When a\nresponse with a data area is subject to the +1 exemption, the reported\ndata can extend one byte beyond the bytes actually received, yet\nsmb2_check_message() still accepts it.  The subsequent decoder then reads\npast the end of the receive buffer.  This is reachable during NEGOTIATE\nand SESSION_SETUP, before the session is established.\n\nThe resulting out-of-bounds reads are visible under KASAN when mounting\nagainst a non-conforming server; both the SPNEGO/negTokenInit and the\nNTLMSSP challenge decoders are affected:\n\n  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in asn1_ber_decoder+0x16a7/0x1b00\n  Read of size 1 at addr ffff8880084d67c0 by task mount.cifs/81\n  CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 81 Comm: mount.cifs Not tainted 7.1.0-rc6 #1\n  Call Trace:\n   \u003cTASK\u003e\n   dump_stack_lvl+0x4e/0x70\n   print_report+0x157/0x4c9\n   kasan_report+0xce/0x100\n   asn1_ber_decoder+0x16a7/0x1b00\n   decode_negTokenInit+0x19/0x30\n   SMB2_negotiate+0x31d9/0x4c90\n   cifs_negotiate_protocol+0x1f2/0x3f0\n   cifs_get_smb_ses+0x93f/0x17e0\n   cifs_mount_get_session+0x7f/0x3a0\n   cifs_mount+0xb4/0xcf0\n   cifs_smb3_do_mount+0x23a/0x1500\n   smb3_get_tree+0x3b0/0x630\n   vfs_get_tree+0x82/0x2d0\n   fc_mount+0x10/0x1b0\n   path_mount+0x50d/0x1de0\n   __x64_sys_mount+0x20b/0x270\n   do_syscall_64+0xee/0x590\n   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f\n   \u003c/TASK\u003e\n  Allocated by task 85:\n   kmem_cache_alloc_noprof+0x106/0x380\n   mempool_alloc_noprof+0x116/0x1e0\n   cifs_small_buf_get+0x31/0x80\n   allocate_buffers+0x10d/0x2b0\n   cifs_demultiplex_thread+0x1d5/0x1d50\n   kthread+0x2c6/0x390\n   ret_from_fork+0x36e/0x5a0\n   ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30\n  The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of\n   allocated 448-byte region [ffff8880084d6600, ffff8880084d67c0)\n   which belongs to the cache cifs_small_rq of size 448\n\n  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in kmemdup_noprof+0x36/0x50\n  Read of size 329 at addr ffff88800726c678 by task mount.cifs/89\n  CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 89 Comm: mount.cifs Tainted: G    B      7.1.0-rc6 #1\n  Call Trace:\n   \u003cTASK\u003e\n   dump_stack_lvl+0x4e/0x70\n   print_report+0x157/0x4c9\n   kasan_report+0xce/0x100\n   kasan_check_range+0x10f/0x1e0\n   __asan_memcpy+0x23/0x60\n   kmemdup_noprof+0x36/0x50\n   decode_ntlmssp_challenge+0x457/0x680\n   SMB2_sess_auth_rawntlmssp_negotiate+0x6f0/0xcb0\n   SMB2_sess_setup+0x219/0x4f0\n   cifs_setup_session+0x248/0xaf0\n   cifs_get_smb_ses+0xf79/0x17e0\n   cifs_mount_get_session+0x7f/0x3a0\n   cifs_mount+0xb4/0xcf0\n   cifs_smb3_do_mount+0x23a/0x1500\n   smb3_get_tree+0x3b0/0x630\n   vfs_get_tree+0x82/0x2d0\n   fc_mount+0x10/0x1b0\n   path_mount+0x50d/0x1de0\n   __x64_sys_mount+0x20b/0x270\n   do_syscall_64+0xee/0x590\n   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f\n   \u003c/TASK\u003e\n  Allocated by task 93:\n   kmem_cache_alloc_noprof+0x106/0x380\n   mempool_alloc_noprof+0x116/0x1e0\n   cifs_small_buf_get+0x31/0x80\n   allocate_buffers+0x10d/0x2b0\n   cifs_demultiplex_thread+0x1d5/0x1d50\n   kthread+0x2c6/0x390\n   ret_from_fork+0x36e/0x5a0\n   ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30\n  The buggy address is located 120 bytes inside of\n   allocated 448-byte region [ffff88800726c600, ffff88800726c7c0)\n   which belongs to the cache cifs_small_rq of size 448\n\nRestrict the +1 exemption to responses that have no data area, so that\nit still covers the bcc[0] omission it was meant for.
