Subject: [PATCH 1/2] md: fix bblog_size-driven OOB read in super_1_load() and super_1_sync()
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2026 16:38:19 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260917083820.57091-2-ndaugoing@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260917083820.57091-1-ndaugoing@gmail.com>

In super_1_load(), when the on-disk feature_map does not have the
MD_FEATURE_BAD_BLOCKS flag set, but sb->bblog_offset is non-zero,
rdev->badblocks.shift is initialized to 0 while completely bypassing
the sectors > (PAGE_SIZE / 512) validation check on sb->bblog_size.

Subsequently, when badblocks are updated, super_1_sync() enables the
MD_FEATURE_BAD_BLOCKS feature flag and assigns bb->size directly from
sb->bblog_size without validating that bb->size fits within the single
allocated rdev->bb_page (which is PAGE_SIZE, or PAGE_SIZE / 512 sectors).

When md_update_sb() later writes metadata via md_write_metadata(), an
unvalidated bb->size (e.g. 0xFFFF) results in a bio whose length exceeds
the backing page, causing out-of-bounds reads into kernel memory during
block I/O and leaking kernel slab/page contents to disk.

Fix this by:
1. Validating sb->bblog_size in the 'else if (sb->bblog_offset != 0)'
   branch of super_1_load(), returning -EINVAL on oversized values.
2. Clamping bb->size in super_1_sync() to PAGE_SIZE / 512 to ensure it
   never exceeds the backing rdev->bb_page capacity.

Fixes: 2699b67223ac ("md: load/store badblock list from v1.x metadata")
