CVE-2026-46243 HIGH

Published: 2026-06-01 | Last Modified: 2026-08-07 | Status: Modified

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb: client: reject userspace cifs.spnego descriptions cifs.spnego key descriptions contain authority-bearing fields such as pid, uid, creduid, and upcall_target that cifs.upcall treats as kernel-originating inputs. However, userspace can also create keys of this type through request_key(2) or add_key(2), allowing those fields to be supplied without CIFS origin. Only accept cifs.spnego descriptions while CIFS is using its private spnego_cred to request the key.

Additional Descriptions (1)

En el kernel de Linux, la siguiente vulnerabilidad ha sido resuelta: smb: cliente: rechazar descripciones de cifs.spnego del espacio de usuario Las descripciones de claves de cifs.spnego contienen campos que confieren autoridad, como pid, uid, creduid y upcall_target, que cifs.upcall trata como entradas con origen en el kernel. Sin embargo, el espacio de usuario también puede crear claves de este tipo a través de request_key(2) o add_key(2), permitiendo que esos campos sean proporcionados sin origen CIFS. Solo aceptar descripciones de cifs.spnego mientras CIFS esté usando su spnego_cred privado para solicitar la clave.
