Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-46243)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a local user to disclose sensitive information, modify data, or cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the cifs.spnego key description handling in fs/smb/client/cifs_spnego.c when processing userspace-created cifs.spnego keys through request_key(2) or add_key(2). A local user can supply a crafted cifs.spnego description to disclose sensitive information, modify data, or cause a denial of service.
The issue arises because authority-bearing fields such as pid, uid, creduid, and upcall_target may be treated by cifs.upcall as kernel-originating inputs.
