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.Daten sind bereitgestellt durch National Vulnerability Database (NVD)

CWE-401 Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime
The product does not sufficiently track and release allocated memory after it has been used, making the memory unavailable for reallocation and reuse.
