Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: add a permission check for FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA
FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA in smb2_ioctl() destroys file data via
ksmbd_vfs_zero_data() -> vfs_fallocate(PUNCH_HOLE/ZERO_RANGE) after
checking only the share-level KSMBD_TREE_CONN_FLAG_WRITABLE, with no
per-handle access check. A handle opened with only FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES
still yields an FMODE_WRITE filp (FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES is part of
FILE_WRITE_DESIRE_ACCESS_LE, so smb2_create_open_flags() opens it
O_WRONLY), so the vfs_fallocate FMODE_WRITE check does not stop it; only
the missing fp->daccess gate would. Reproduced on mainline 7.1-rc7 with
KASAN by an authenticated SMB client: a FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES-only handle
zeroed 4096 bytes of file data it had no FILE_WRITE_DATA right to
(6/6; a FILE_READ_DATA-only handle was correctly denied).
This is the unfixed sibling of commit cc57232cae23 ("ksmbd: fix FSCTL
permission bypass by adding a permission check for FSCTL_SET_SPARSE").
Because SET_ZERO_DATA writes data (not an attribute), require
FILE_WRITE_DATA.
