CVE-2026-64379: smb: client: mask server-provided mode to 07777 in modefromsid

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 28/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.30% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: Linux Linux 08c600b7e1818539ba5efee4cdb06215c245ca78, 5f6f2241034f189c69d4d0b5f8fe24a0c25b0c14, b84e002e0df26bbc6cbd3ca01b8212601fe0ae7d; azl3 kernel 6.6.144.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.145.2-1.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 08c600b7e1818539ba5efee4cdb06215c245ca78, 5f6f2241034f189c69d4d0b5f8fe24a0c25b0c14, b84e002e0df26bbc6cbd3ca01b8212601fe0ae7d; azl3 kernel 6.6.144.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.145.2-1 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb: client: mask server-provided mode to 07777 in modefromsid When modefromsid is active, parse_dacl() applies the server-provided sub_auth[2] value from the NFS mode SID to cf_mode without masking to 07777. Apply the correct masking, same as in the read path.
