Summary

In the Linux kernel, SMB client with modefromsid active, parse_dacl() applies the server-provided sub_auth[2] value from the NFS mode SID to cf_mode without masking to 07777. The fix adds correct masking, same as in the read path.

Risk Assessment

Incorrect permission masking can lead to overly permissive file permissions, posing a security risk.

Recommendation

Update the Linux kernel to a version containing this fix to ensure proper mode masking in modefromsid.
