[PATCH] [CIFS] fix auth_key cleanup in SMB2_sess_setup() for possible crash

From: Dan Aloni
Date: Mon Oct 20 2014 - 11:00:19 EST


The ses->auth_key.len field should be zeroed out during error paths,
along with the 'response' field.

Rationale:

It is possible with a specially crafted SMB2 server to cause the setup
to free the key but keep the session. When the session is recovered
(after a connection drop, for example), the following condition turn
out to be true:

ses->auth_key.len != 0 && ses->auth_key.response == NULL

This will cause the following memcpy() in setup_ntlmv2_rsp() to GPF,
because tiblob == NULL and tilen != 0 (these are the old auth_key values):

memcpy(ses->auth_key.response + baselen, tiblob, tilen);

As seen here (Fedora 20 kernel build 3.16.3-200.fc20.x86_64):
