Summary

In the Linux kernel, the ceph module has a vulnerability due to failure to bound the copied dentry name length in NFS export get_name. The ceph_get_name() function copies the MDS-supplied name into a NAME_MAX-sized buffer without checking dname_len, leading to a buffer overflow. __get_snap_name() copies data in the same unchecked way.

Risk Assessment

A malicious or compromised Ceph MDS can remotely cause a slab out-of-bounds write on a client re-exporting CephFS over NFS. This affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system.

Recommendation

Update the Linux kernel to a version with the fix introducing ceph_export_copy_name(), which rejects lengths above NAME_MAX with -ENAMETOOLONG. Limit trust in MDS servers within the Ceph cluster.

Original NVD description (English source)

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().
