ksmbd: use memcmp() to compare ClientGUIDs

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: use memcmp() to compare ClientGUIDs ClientGUID is a fixed-size binary value and can contain embedded NUL bytes. strncmp() stops comparing at the first NUL byte, so different ClientGUID values can incorrectly be treated as equal. Use memcmp() in SMB3 multichannel session binding and FSCTL_VALIDATE_NEGOTIATE_INFO to compare all SMB2_CLIENT_GUID_SIZE bytes.
