ksmbd: fix SID memory leak in set_posix_acl_entries_dacl() on overflow

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: fix SID memory leak in set_posix_acl_entries_dacl() on overflow Commit 299f962c0b02 ("ksmbd: use check_add_overflow() to prevent u16 DACL size overflow") added check_add_overflow() guards that break out of the ACE-building loops in set_posix_acl_entries_dacl() when the accumulated DACL size would wrap past 65535. However, each iteration allocates a struct smb_sid via kmalloc_obj() at the top of the loop and relies on the kfree(sid) call at the end of the loop body (the 'pass_same_sid' label in the first loop, and the explicit kfree at the tail of the second loop) to release it. The newly introduced 'break' statements bypass those kfree() calls, leaking the sid buffer every time an overflow is detected. A malicious or malformed file with enough POSIX ACL entries to trip the overflow check will leak one or more struct smb_sid allocations on every request that touches the file's DACL, providing a trivial kernel memory exhaustion vector. Free sid before breaking out of the loops to plug the leak.

Linux kernel 安全漏洞

Linux kernel是美国Linux基金会开源的一款操作系统内核。 Linux kernel存在安全漏洞，该漏洞源于ksmbd的set_posix_acl_entries_dacl()函数对DACL大小溢出处理不当，导致SID内存泄漏，通过恶意文件可导致内核内存耗尽。
