This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ext4: sanity check the block and cluster size at mount time to the 4.8-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ext4-sanity-check-the-block-and-cluster-size-at-mount-time.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.8 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 8cdf3372fe8368f56315e66bea9f35053c418093 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2016 13:00:24 -0500 Subject: ext4: sanity check the block and cluster size at mount time From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx> commit 8cdf3372fe8368f56315e66bea9f35053c418093 upstream. If the block size or cluster size is insane, reject the mount. This is important for security reasons (although we shouldn't be just depending on this check).
