Subject: [PATCH] dlm: check negative length in dlm_search_rsb_tree
Date: Fri, 15 May 2026 15:39:33 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260515073933.1978699-1-joseph.qi@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
commit 080e5563f878 only checks for len > DLM_RESNAME_MAXLEN, which does
not catch negative values. While the input 'len' can be negative and a
negative int passed to memcpy() is implicitly converted to a large
size_t, causing a stack buffer overflow on the key[] array.
Fix this by also rejecting len <= 0.
