Linux ksmbd contains a remote memory corruption vulnerability in the ACL inheritance path that allows remote clients with directory creation permissions to trigger a heap out-of-bounds read and subsequent heap corruption by setting a crafted DACL with a malformed SID containing an inflated num_subauth field. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability by creating a directory, setting the malicious DACL via SMB2_SET_INFO, and creating child entries to cause kernel instability, denial of service, or potentially achieve privilege escalation to kernel code execution.
