Subject: [PATCH] hfsplus: validate extent record length before writing it back
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2026 17:24:21 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260810092422.1691377-1-r772577952@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <0720c3ba6399c11a0a328e8d8eef99a19e6999c8.camel@dubeyko.com>
__hfsplus_ext_write_extent() writes the cached extent record back into a
B-tree node using fd->entrylength as the length, and fd->entrylength is
derived in __hfs_brec_find() from two on-disk values:
fd->entrylength = len - keylen;
A crafted image can keep both len and keylen valid but make fd->entrylength
negative (keylen > len). __hfsplus_ext_write_extent() doesn't check
fd->entrylength before consuming it, and hfs_bnode_write() takes the length
as u32, so the negative value turns into a huge one. The copy then reads
data past the end of hip->cached_extents, which is only
sizeof(hfsplus_extent_rec) bytes long, and leaks kernel memory into the
image.
Reject an fd->entrylength that does not match sizeof(hfsplus_extent_rec) in
__hfsplus_ext_write_extent(), mirroring the check already performed in
__hfsplus_ext_read_extent().
