[merged mm-nonmm-stable] fat-reject-bpb-volumes-whose-data-area-starts-beyond-total-sectors.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: fat: reject BPB volumes whose data area starts beyond total sectors
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     fat-reject-bpb-volumes-whose-data-area-starts-beyond-total-sectors.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: fat: reject BPB volumes whose data area starts beyond total sectors
Date: Fri, 5 Jun 2026 15:52:15 +0000

fat_fill_super() subtracts sbi->data_start from the BPB total sector count
before computing the number of clusters.  A malformed image can declare a
total sector count smaller than data_start, causing the subtraction to
underflow and the mount code to derive a plausible cluster count from the
FAT length instead.

Reject such images before the subtraction.  In QEMU, a crafted FAT image
with total_sectors=2 and data_start=3 mounted successfully before the fix
and reading a file returned bytes stored past the BPB-declared end of the
volume.  With this change, the same image is rejected during mount.
