"scenarios": [
{
"lang": "en",
"value": "AV:N - The vulnerable teardown path belongs to ksmbd's in-kernel SMB Direct transport, whose RDMA CM listener accepts connections from remote peers on port 445 (InfiniBand) / 5445 (iWARP), and is reachable over routable IP via iWARP/RoCEv2 or software providers (siw/rxe). No local access is needed — a remote peer triggers it by establishing and dropping an SMB Direct connection.\nAC:L - The type confusion is deterministic — every SMB Direct connection teardown funnels through ksmbd_conn_free() → ksmbd_free_transport() and fabricates a socket pointer from the status/full_packet_received bytes, with no race or memory-layout precondition. The premature-free variant simply requires holding an oplock/lease at disconnect time, which the attacker fully controls.\nPR:N - Connection setup and teardown happen entirely before SMB2 SESSION_SETUP: the error path in smb_direct_handle_connect_request() and the normal ksmbd_conn_handler_loop() exit both call free_transport() with no credentials verified. An unauthenticated peer that connects and disconnects triggers the confused free.\nUI:N - The attacker drives the entire sequence by opening and closing an SMB Direct connection; no action by any local user or administrator is required beyond ksmbd already serving SMB Direct.\nS:U - The corruption is confined to kernel memory managed by the ksmbd server within the same security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The type confusion plus the unconditional kfree(t) in the RDMA free_transport() leave conn->transport dangling and double-free the slab object, giving a use-after-free on a large kmalloc allocation that an attacker can reclaim and read back through ksmbd_conn_write()/rdma_read paths, which is leverageable for arbitrary kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - This is a genuine type confusion combined with a double free and a use-after-free whose reuse ends in an indirect call through freed memory (conn->transport->ops->writev in __smb2_lease_break_noti()), a direct control-flow hijack primitive once the freed object is groomed.\nA:H - Every SMB Direct teardown calls sock_release() on a fabricated pointer built from the status enum, producing a guaranteed kernel oops that kills the ksmbd kthread and leaks its RDMA resources, and panics outright on panic_on_oops configurations common in appliances and embedded deployments."
