How to fix?

Upgrade Oracle:10 kernel-uek-debug-modules-wireless to version 0:6.12.0-207.111.5.1.el10uek or higher.
This issue was patched in ELSA-2026-500374.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-uek-debug-modules-wireless package and not the kernel-uek-debug-modules-wireless package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

smb/client: validate new EOF for zero range

When FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE is used without FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE, smb3_zero_range() may extend EOF without checking RLIMIT_FSIZE, allowing the file to grow beyond the caller's file-size limit.

Fix this by calling inode_newsize_ok() before sending the zero-range request when the operation would extend EOF.

Reproducer, using a file on a CIFS mount:

bash -c &#39;
        FILE=/mnt/cifs/repro

    trap &amp;#34;&amp;#34; SIGXFSZ
    ulimit -f 3072

    truncate -s 2M &amp;#34;$FILE&amp;#34;
    fallocate --zero-range -o 0 -l 4M &amp;#34;$FILE&amp;#34;
    echo &amp;#34;fallocate rc=$?&amp;#34;
    stat -c &amp;#34;file size=%s&amp;#34; &amp;#34;$FILE&amp;#34;

&#39;

Before this change, the operation succeeds despite the 3 MiB limit:

fallocate rc=0
file size=4194304

After this change, fallocate fails and leaves the file at 2 MiB.
