Subject: [PATCH 7.2.y] dm-pcache: bound the logical key offset from persistent memory
Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2026 20:18:29 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910001829.3751733-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026090433-ebony-snore-69ef@gregkh>
From: Bryam Vargas <hexlabsecurity@proton.me>
[ Upstream commit 97fc4b53dbe4a983fdf093243067fa6a64562307 ]
cache_key_decode() takes a key's logical off from the cache device and
later indexes req_key_tree->subtrees[] by it in get_subtree(). An off
past the device forms a subtree pointer outside the array, which
rb_insert() writes through during replay.
Reject a key of zero length, or whose off+len (computed in 64 bits)
exceeds the device size, before it is used.
Fixes: 1d57628ff95b ("dm-pcache: add persistent cache target in device-mapper")
