ksmbd_conn_handler_loop() delivers that CREATE on TCP/445 through __handle_ksmbd_work() after smb2_check_user_session()/smb2_get_ksmbd_tcon().\nAC:L - With FILE_MAXIMAL_ACCESS_LE set, smb_check_perm_dacl() does granted |= ace->access_req for every ACE regardless of SID, and when the user SID is not found it applies a POSIX ACL_USER/ACL_GROUP entry even if an Everyone ACE exists; one attacker-sent SMB2_CREATE triggers that with no race.\nPR:L - SMB2_CREATE is not in the smb2_check_user_session() pre-auth skip list (only NEGOTIATE/SESSION_SETUP/ECHO); __handle_ksmbd_work() requires SMB2_SESSION_VALID and smb2_get_ksmbd_tcon() before smb2_open(), so this is an authenticated share user, not a pre-auth or host-root path.\nUI:N - The attacker sends the SMB2_CREATE that smb2_open() uses to call smb_check_perm_dacl() on a file they name; no victim mount, click, or other interactive step is required.\nS:U - smb_check_perm_dacl() only miscomputes the access mask stored as fp->daccess for that ksmbd open; the extra rights stay inside the host kernel SMB server and do not cross a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - When FILE_MAXIMAL_ACCESS_LE is set, granted ORs access_req from unrelated SIDs, and a POSIX ACL_USER match can replace a tighter Everyone ACE; *pdaccess becomes fp->daccess, so smb2_read() seeing FILE_READ_DATA_LE returns file contents the stored DACL would have denied with -EACCES.\nI:H - The same inflated mask can include FILE_WRITE_DATA, WRITE_DAC, or DELETE from another principal's ACE or from mode_to_access_flags() on a POSIX rwx/r-- entry; smb2_write(), smb2_set_info_sec(), and set_file_disposition_info() then allow writes, DACL replacement, or deletes the stored DACL would have rejected.\nA:N - smb_check_perm_dacl() only returns 0 with a wider granted mask or -EACCES mapped to STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED/STATUS_PRIVILEGE_NOT_HELD;
