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

ksmbd: use opener credentials for ADS I/O

Alternate data streams are stored as xattrs. Unlike regular file I/O,
their read and write paths therefore call VFS xattr helpers which recheck
inode permissions and LSM policy using the current task credentials.

Run ADS I/O with the credentials captured when the SMB handle was opened.
