Subject: [PATCH 24/27] perf session: Check for decompression buffer size overflow
Date: Wed, 20 May 2026 22:10:09 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260521011027.622268-25-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260521011027.622268-1-acme@kernel.org>

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

On 32-bit systems, sizeof(struct decomp) + decomp_len can wrap
size_t when comp_mmap_len is large.  The preceding patch caps
comp_mmap_len at ~2 GB, which bounds individual values, but two
additions can still overflow:

1. decomp_len += decomp_last_rem: on 32-bit, adding a u64 to
   size_t silently truncates, producing a corrupted decomp_len
   that would bypass the subsequent overflow check and result
   in an undersized buffer allocation.

2. sizeof(struct decomp) + decomp_len: even with the cap, the
   final addition could overflow on systems with small size_t.

Add explicit overflow checks before each addition as
defense-in-depth.
