Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 TM MFP Improper Input Validation (CVE-2026-43350)

high Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 506397

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

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

smb: client: require a full NFS mode SID before reading mode bits

parse_dacl() treats an ACE SID matching sid_unix_NFS_mode as an NFS mode SID and reads sid.sub_auth[2] to recover the mode bits.

That assumes the ACE carries three subauthorities, but compare_sids() only compares min(a, b) subauthorities. A malicious server can return an ACE with num_subauth = 2 and sub_auth[] = {88, 3}, which still matches sid_unix_NFS_mode and then drives the sub_auth[2] read four bytes past the end of the ACE.

Require num_subauth >= 3 before treating the ACE as an NFS mode SID.
This keeps the fix local to the special-SID mode path without changing compare_sids() semantics for the rest of cifsacl.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
