> When two physical blocks of a Memory Stick both claim logical block 0,
> which happens after an interrupted update of that block or on a crafted
> card, the ENE UB6250 driver can spin forever in the usb-storage thread
> while reading through 64KiB past a 512-byte buffer, over and over.
>
> ms_lib_check_disableblock() reads page 1 of the boot block, which holds
> the disabled block table: big-endian 16-bit block numbers terminated by
> 0xffff, the same table ms_lib_process_bootblock() parses with
> be16_to_cpu() on 16-bit entries. The walk, however, indexes the buffer
> as unsigned char and has no upper bound:
>
> blk = be16_to_cpu(PageBuf[index]);
> if (blk == MS_LB_NOT_USED)
> break;
>
> A byte converted this way can never equal 0xffff, so the loop only ends
> if some byte happens to match Log2PhyMap[0]. Otherwise the u16 index
> runs through the 64KiB following the kmalloc()ed page and wraps around,
> forever.
>
> The bug was found by code inspection and has not been reproduced.
>
> Fix by walking the table as 16-bit big-endian entries and stopping at
> the end of the page.
