CVE-2023-39180 (GCVE-0-2023-39180)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2024-11-18 09:53 – Updated: 2024-11-18 15:05
VLAI?
Summary
A flaw was found within the handling of SMB2_READ commands in the kernel ksmbd module. The issue results from not releasing memory after its effective lifetime. An attacker can leverage this to create a denial-of-service condition on affected installations of Linux. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability, but only systems with ksmbd enabled are vulnerable.
