[PATCH] afs: Work around strnlen() oops with CONFIG_FORTIFIED_SOURCE=y

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



AFS has a structured layout in its directory contents (AFS dirs are
downloaded as files and parsed locally by the client for lookup/readdir).
The slots in the directory are defined by union afs_xdr_dirent.  This,
however, only directly allows a name of a length that will fit into that
union.  To support a longer name, the next 1-8 contiguous entries are
annexed to the first one and the name flows across these.

afs_dir_iterate_block() uses strnlen(), limited to the space to the end of
the page, to find out how long the name is.  This worked fine until
6a39e62abbaf.  With that commit, the compiler determines the size of the
array and asserts that the string fits inside that array.  This is a
problem for AFS because we *expect* it to overflow one or more arrays.

A similar problem also occurs in afs_dir_scan_block() when a directory file
is being locally edited to avoid the need to redownload it.  There strlen()
was being used safely because each page has the last byte set to 0 when the
file is downloaded and validated (in afs_dir_check_page()).

Fix this by using memchr() instead and hoping no one changes that to check
the object size.

The issue can be triggered by something like:

	touch /afs/example.com/thisisaveryveryverylongname

and it generates a report that looks like:

	detected buffer overflow in strnlen
