7.1 highCVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:HCVE-2025-22038
High (7.1) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 0.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: validate zero num_subauth before sub_auth is accessed
Access psid->sub_auth[psid->num_subauth - 1] without checking
if num_subauth is non-zero leads to an out-of-bounds read.
This patch adds a validation step to ensure num_subauth != 0
before sub_auth is accessed.
