The patch titled Subject: ocfs2: validate l_tree_depth to avoid out-of-bounds access has been added to the -mm mm-nonmm-unstable branch. Its filename is ocfs2-validate-l_tree_depth-to-avoid-out-of-bounds-access.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/ocfs2-validate-l_tree_depth-to-avoid-out-of-bounds-access.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-nonmm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Vasiliy Kovalev <kovalev@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: ocfs2: validate l_tree_depth to avoid out-of-bounds access Date: Fri, 14 Feb 2025 11:49:08 +0300 The l_tree_depth field is 16-bit (__le16), but the actual maximum depth is limited to OCFS2_MAX_PATH_DEPTH. Add a check to prevent out-of-bounds access if l_tree_depth has an invalid value, which may occur when reading from a corrupted mounted disk [1].
