Title
cifs: fix underflow in parse_server_interfaces()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: fix underflow in parse_server_interfaces()
In this loop, we step through the buffer and after each item we check
if the size_left is greater than the minimum size we need. However,
the problem is that "bytes_left" is type ssize_t while sizeof() is type
size_t. That means that because of type promotion, the comparison is
done as an unsigned and if we have negative bytes left the loop
continues instead of ending.

No local access to the victim is required.\nAC:L - The server controls both the response length and every `Next` field, so making `bytes_left` underflow is a single deterministic value choice (e.g. buf_len=152, Next=160) with no race, timing, or memory-layout condition outside the attacker\u0027s control.\nPR:N - The attacker is the server side of the connection and needs no credentials or privileges on the victim host; it simply answers the client\u0027s own FSCTL_QUERY_NETWORK_INTERFACE_INFO request with a crafted reply.\nUI:N - Beyond the mount path, `smb2_query_server_interfaces()` re-issues the query from a self-re-arming cifsiod delayed work every 600 seconds, and `smb2_reconnect()` issues it on every tcon reconnect, so an already-mounted share is attacked with zero user action.\nS:U - The out-of-bounds read and the resulting crash are entirely within the kernel\u0027s own security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The loop walks arbitrary kernel memory at an attacker-chosen stride and stores the OOB bytes as interface speeds and IPv4/IPv6 addresses in `ses-\u003eiface_list`, which is printed verbatim to world-readable `/proc/fs/cifs/DebugData` and used as multichannel connect targets \u2014 an unbounded, repeatable kernel heap disclosure primitive.\nI:L - There is no out-of-bounds write, but garbage harvested from unrelated kernel heap memory is installed as the session\u0027s authoritative interface list and drives which addresses the client opens additional SMB channels to, a limited unauthorized modification of client connection state.\nA:H - With `Next` up to 4 GiB the pointer walk dereferences unmapped memory and oopses the kernel, and the loop can only exit when an OOB `Next` is zero, additionally causing unbounded `iface_list`/`iface_count` growth from a workqueue context."
