Subject: [PATCH 6.18.y 2/3] ocfs2: validate inline data i_size during inode read
Date: Mon, 13 Apr 2026 11:19:57 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260413151958.3014725-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260413151958.3014725-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Deepanshu Kartikey <kartikey406@gmail.com>
[ Upstream commit 1524af3685b35feac76662cc551cbc37bd14775f ]
When reading an inode from disk, ocfs2_validate_inode_block() performs
various sanity checks but does not validate the size of inline data. If
the filesystem is corrupted, an inode's i_size can exceed the actual
inline data capacity (id_count).
This causes ocfs2_dir_foreach_blk_id() to iterate beyond the inline data
buffer, triggering a use-after-free when accessing directory entries from
freed memory.
In the syzbot report:
- i_size was 1099511627576 bytes (~1TB)
- Actual inline data capacity (id_count) is typically <256 bytes
- A garbage rec_len (54648) caused ctx->pos to jump out of bounds
- This triggered a UAF in ocfs2_check_dir_entry()
Fix by adding a validation check in ocfs2_validate_inode_block() to ensure
inodes with inline data have i_size <= id_count. This catches the
corruption early during inode read and prevents all downstream code from
operating on invalid data.
