CVE-2026-93787

EUVD-2026-86174
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

smb: client: bound dirent name against end of SMB response in cifs_filldir

cifs_filldir() copies the entry name out of an SMB1 TRANS2_FIND_FIRST /
FIND_NEXT response using a length (de.namelen) supplied by the server.
The kmalloc'd SMB response buffer is bounded, but nothing checks that
de.name + de.namelen still lies inside that buffer before the eventual
filldir64() -> verify_dirent_name() -> memchr() reads namelen bytes.

A hostile SMB1 server that returns an oversized FileNameLength in a
directory entry therefore causes memchr() to read past the end of the
response slab buffer. Reachable from any user who can list a directory
on a CIFS mount served by an attacker-controlled server (getdents64()
on the mounted directory):

  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in memchr+0x71/0x80

Pass the end-of-response pointer down to cifs_filldir() and reject
entries whose name would extend past that boundary.

This bug was discovered by Artiphishell's vTriage pipeline, which
generated a userspace reproducer (an emulated hostile SMB1 server plus
a getdents64() client) that reliably triggers the KASAN report on an
unpatched kernel. The fix below was drafted with the Claude coding
assistant; a userspace reproducer is available on request.
