In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

smb: client: fail DACL rewrite when the new DACL exceeds 64K

replace_sids_and_copy_aces() and set_chmod_dacl() accumulate the size of
the DACL they build in a u16. That accumulator can wrap.

validate_dacl() caps num_aces at (dacl_size - sizeof(struct smb_acl)) /
20, i.e. 3276 for a maximally sized DACL, while each rewritten ACE can
grow to sizeof(struct smb_ace) (76 bytes) once its SID is replaced with
one carrying SID_MAX_SUB_AUTHORITIES sub-authorities. The worst case is
therefore sizeof(struct smb_acl) + 3276 * 76 = 248984 bytes, far beyond
what a u16 can hold. A wraparound is reached with 863 ACEs.

After the wraparound, ndacl_ptr->size becomes meaningless and the offset
will point anywhere in the ACE array. As a result, we will see
corruption of the DACL, which then gets sent to the server. This is not
an out-of-bounds write as the allocation now covers the worst-case
expansion, so writes will always go into the buffer.

Adjust the code to use a u32 internally and return -EOVERFLOW in the
overflow case. The operation must be refused, because a DACL can only
hold 2^16-1 bytes on the wire and larger DACLs cannot be represented.

set_chmod_dacl() carries the same pattern and is fixed the same way. It
only wraps once the source DACL comes within roughly 380 bytes of the
64K ceiling, but the failure mode is identical.
