Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-09-11 20:34:33 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ceph: bound copied dentry name length in NFS export get_name

ceph_get_name() copies the MDS-supplied name into the caller's
NAME_MAX-sized buffer with memcpy(name, rinfo->dname, rinfo->dname_len)
and then writes name[rinfo->dname_len] = 0, without checking dname_len
against NAME_MAX. A malicious or buggy MDS that returns a LOOKUPNAME reply
with dname_len > NAME_MAX overflows the buffer. __get_snap_name() copies
rde->name / rde->name_len the same unchecked way.

Impact: a malicious or compromised Ceph MDS overflows the NAME_MAX name
buffer in a client's NFS-export get_name path, a slab out-of-bounds write
reported by KASAN. Reachable when a CephFS mount is re-exported over NFS.

Add ceph_export_copy_name(), which rejects lengths above NAME_MAX with
-ENAMETOOLONG before the copy, and use it in both ceph_get_name() and
__get_snap_name().
