The quilt patch titled Subject: nilfs2: fix potential oob read in nilfs_btree_check_delete() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was nilfs2-fix-potential-oob-read-in-nilfs_btree_check_delete.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: nilfs2: fix potential oob read in nilfs_btree_check_delete() Date: Wed, 4 Sep 2024 17:13:09 +0900 The function nilfs_btree_check_delete(), which checks whether degeneration to direct mapping occurs before deleting a b-tree entry, causes memory access outside the block buffer when retrieving the maximum key if the root node has no entries. This does not usually happen because b-tree mappings with 0 child nodes are never created by mkfs.nilfs2 or nilfs2 itself. However, it can happen if the b-tree root node read from a device is configured that way, so fix this potential issue by adding a check for that case.
