Subject: [PATCH 5.10.y 2/2] Squashfs: reject negative file sizes in squashfs_read_inode()
Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2025 17:57:01 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251013215701.3645486-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251013215701.3645486-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Phillip Lougher <phillip@squashfs.org.uk>
[ Upstream commit 9f1c14c1de1bdde395f6cc893efa4f80a2ae3b2b ]
Syskaller reports a "WARNING in ovl_copy_up_file" in overlayfs.
This warning is ultimately caused because the underlying Squashfs file
system returns a file with a negative file size.
This commit checks for a negative file size and returns EINVAL.
[phillip@squashfs.org.uk: only need to check 64 bit quantity]
