Subject: [PATCH 6.12 14/35] fs/ntfs3: validate rec->used in journal-replay file record check
Date: Fri, 24 Apr 2026 15:31:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260424132414.643017526@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260424132411.427029259@linuxfoundation.org>
6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
commit 0ca0485e4b2e837ebb6cbd4f2451aba665a03e4b upstream.
check_file_record() validates rec->total against the record size but
never validates rec->used. The do_action() journal-replay handlers read
rec->used from disk and use it to compute memmove lengths:
DeleteAttribute: memmove(attr, ..., used - asize - roff)
CreateAttribute: memmove(..., attr, used - roff)
change_attr_size: memmove(..., used - PtrOffset(rec, next))
When rec->used is smaller than the offset of a validated attribute, or
larger than the record size, these subtractions can underflow allowing
us to copy huge amounts of memory in to a 4kb buffer, generally
considered a bad idea overall.
This requires a corrupted filesystem, which isn't a threat model the
kernel really needs to worry about, but checking for such an obvious
out-of-bounds value is good to keep things robust, especially on journal
replay
Fix this up by bounding rec->used correctly.
This is much like commit b2bc7c44ed17 ("fs/ntfs3: Fix slab-out-of-bounds
read in DeleteIndexEntryRoot") which checked different values in this
same switch statement.
