Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: fix slab-out-of-bounds in smb2_allocate_rsp_buf If ->ProtocolId is SMB2_TRANSFORM_PROTO_NUM, smb2 request size
validation could be skipped. if request size is smaller than
sizeof(struct smb2_query_info_req), slab-out-of-bounds read can happen in
smb2_allocate_rsp_buf(). This patch allocate response buffer after
decrypting transform request. smb3_decrypt_req() will validate transform
request size and avoid slab-out-of-bound in smb2_allocate_rsp_buf().

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: ksmbd: corrige slab-out-of-bounds en smb2_allocate_rsp_buf Si ->ProtocolId es SMB2_TRANSFORM_PROTO_NUM, se podría omitir la validación del tamaño de la solicitud smb2. Si el tamaño de la solicitud es menor que sizeof (struct smb2_query_info_req), la lectura de losa fuera de los límites puede ocurrir en smb2_allocate_rsp_buf(). Este parche asigna un búfer de respuesta después de descifrar la solicitud de transformación. smb3_decrypt_req() validará el tamaño de la solicitud de transformación y evitará la losa fuera de los límites en smb2_allocate_rsp_buf().

Benedict Schlüter, Supraja Sridhara, Andrin Bertschi, and Shweta Shinde discovered that an untrusted hypervisor could inject malicious #VC interrupts and compromise the security guarantees of AMD SEV-SNP. This flaw is known as WeSee. A local attacker in control of the hypervisor could use this to expose sensitive information or possibly execute arbitrary code in the trusted execution environment. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
