Subject: [PATCH] ubifs: wbuf: Don't leak kernel memory to flash
Date: Mon, 16 Nov 2020 22:05:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201116210530.26230-1-richard@nod.at> (raw)

Write buffers use a kmalloc()'ed buffer, they can leak
up to seven bytes of kernel memory to flash if writes are not
aligned.
So use ubifs_pad() to fill these gaps with padding bytes.
This was never a problem while scanning because the scanner logic
manually aligns node lengths and skips over these gaps.

Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org>
Fixes: 1e51764a3c2ac05a2 ("UBIFS: add new flash file system")
