CVE-2023-54250

No Score
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: avoid out of bounds access in decode_preauth_ctxt()
Confirm that the accessed pneg_ctxt->HashAlgorithms address sits within
the SMB request boundary; deassemble_neg_contexts() only checks that the
eight byte smb2_neg_context header + (client controlled) DataLength are
within the packet boundary, which is insufficient.
Checking for sizeof(struct smb2_preauth_neg_context) is overkill given
that the type currently assumes SMB311_SALT_SIZE bytes of trailing Salt.
