Subject: [PATCH 4/4] ocfs2: validate suballoc slot of extent blocks
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 14:28:48 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260831062848.2743436-5-joseph.qi@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260831062848.2743436-1-joseph.qi@linux.alibaba.com>
ocfs2_validate_extent_block() does not validate h_suballoc_slot against
the mounted filesystem's slot range. Since extent blocks are allocated
from a per-slot suballocator at runtime, their suballoc slot must be
within range.
Otherwise a corrupted image can carry an out-of-range slot. When the
extent block is freed, ocfs2_cache_extent_block_free() caches it and
ocfs2_free_cached_blocks() later passes the unvalidated slot to
ocfs2_get_system_file_inode(), so get_local_system_inode() will either
hit BUG_ON(slot == OCFS2_INVALID_SLOT) or compute an out-of-bounds
index into the local_system_inodes array.
Reject out-of-range suballoc slots during validation.
