Subject: [PATCH v2] metadump: catch used extent array overflow
Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2025 14:57:11 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251113135724.757709-1-cem@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Carlos Maiolino <cem@kernel.org>
An user reported a SIGSEGV when attempting to create a metadump image of
a filesystem.
The reason is because we fail to catch a possible overflow in the
used extents array in process_exinode() which may happen if the extent
count is corrupted.
This leads process_bmbt_reclist() to attempt to index into the array
using the bogus extent count with:
convert_extent(&rp[numrecs - 1], &o, &s, &c, &f);
Fix this by extending the used counter to uint64_t and
checking for the overflow possibility.

Changelog:
v2:
- use uint64_t instead of xfs_extnum_t
- use check_mul_overflow() for overflow check
