Subject: [PATCH] xfs: validate inode log item regions during recovery
Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2026 10:48:12 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260716174813.3627911-1-bestswngs@gmail.com> (raw)

xlog_recover_inode_commit_pass2() replays an XFS_LI_INODE item straight
out of the log: it dereferences ri_buf[1] as the log dinode and copies the
data and attr forks from ri_buf[2]/ri_buf[attr_index], but never checks
that those regions were logged or that the dinode geometry agrees with the
mount. ri_buf is sized by the item's ilf_size, bounded only to
[1, XLOG_MAX_REGIONS_IN_ITEM]; the number of regions actually filled in
(ri_cnt) and the fork copies are guarded only by ASSERT()s, which compile
out in production.

A crafted image mounted for log recovery can thus hit a NULL dereference of
an absent region, an out-of-bounds read from a di_version or di_forkoff
that disagrees with the mount, or an overflow of the inode fork by an
oversized local or extent region. An item declaring a second region that
is never logged faults on the log dinode:

 KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000007]
 RIP: xlog_recover_inode_commit_pass2 (fs/xfs/xfs_inode_item_recover.c:370)
 Call Trace:
  xlog_recover_items_pass2 (fs/xfs/xfs_log_recover.c:2011)
  xlog_recover_commit_trans (fs/xfs/xfs_log_recover.c:2078)

  vfs_get_tree (fs/super.c:1803)
  __x64_sys_mount (fs/namespace.c:4433)

Validate the regions before use: require ri_cnt to cover the regions
ilf_fields implies, the log dinode to be present and at least a log dinode
in size, and di_version to match the mount. Replace the di_forkoff check,
which can never fire (di_forkoff is a u8 of 8-byte units, sb_inodesize a
byte count of at least 256), with xfs_dinode_verify_forkoff() (exported
here), and bound the local and extent fork copies against the destination
fork. The btree-root formats are logged in their larger in-core form and
converted on the way in, so they are not bounded by the on-disk fork size.
