## Overview

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

ksmbd: require source read access for duplicate extents

FSCTL_DUPLICATE_EXTENTS_TO_FILE passes the source file directly to
vfs_clone_file_range() or vfs_copy_file_range() without checking the SMB
access mask granted to the source handle. A handle opened with attribute
access can consequently be used to copy file contents into an
attacker-readable destination.

Require FILE_READ_DATA on the source handle before either VFS operation,
matching other ksmbd data-copy paths.

## Affected

- `linux_kernel >= 5.15, < 6.1.178`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.2, < 6.6.145`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.7, < 6.12.96`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.13, < 6.18.39`
- `linux_kernel >= 6.19, < 7.1.4`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `linux_kernel 7.1.4`
