CVE-2026-72107: dm era: fix out-of-bounds memory access for non-zero start sector

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@kernel.org>

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

dm era: fix out-of-bounds memory access for non-zero start sector

dm-era tracks writes in target-relative blocks, but era_map() calculates
the writeset block before applying the target offset.  Tables with a
non-zero start sector can therefore pass an absolute mapped-device block
to metadata_current_marked().

If the absolute block is beyond the current writeset size,
writeset_marked() tests past the end of the in-core bitset.  KASAN reports
this as a vmalloc-out-of-bounds access.

Apply the target offset before calculating the era block so writeset
lookups use the target-relative block number.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-72107 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
