Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] hfs/hfsplus: fix u32 overflow in check_and_correct_requested_length
Date: Tue,  5 May 2026 11:12:58 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260505111300.3592757-2-tristmd@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260505111300.3592757-1-tristmd@gmail.com>

From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>

check_and_correct_requested_length() compares (off + len) against
node_size using u32 arithmetic.  When the caller passes a large len
value (e.g. from an underflowed subtraction in hfs_brec_remove()),
off + len can wrap past 2^32 and produce a small result, causing the
bounds check to pass when it should fail.

For example, with off=14 and len=0xFFFFFFF2 (underflowed from
data_off - keyoffset - size in hfs_brec_remove), off + len wraps to 6,
which is less than a typical node_size of 512, so the check passes and
the subsequent memmove reads ~4GB past the node buffer.

Fix this by widening the addition to u64 before comparing against
node_size.  This prevents the u32 wrap while keeping the logic
straightforward.
