libext2fs: fix potential buffer overflow in closefs()
|
|
|
98901c |
|
|
|
98901c |
The bug fix in f66e6ce4446: "libext2fs: avoid buffer overflow if
|
|
|
98901c |
s_first_meta_bg is too big" had a typo in the fix for
|
|
|
98901c |
ext2fs_closefs(). In practice most of the security exposure was from
|
|
|
98901c |
the openfs path, since this meant if there was a carefully crafted
|
|
|
98901c |
file system, buffer overrun would be triggered when the file system was
|
|
|
98901c |
opened.
|
|
|
98901c |
|
|
|
98901c |
However, if corrupted file system didn't trip over some corruption
|
|
|
98901c |
check, and then the file system was modified via tune2fs or debugfs,
|
|
|
98901c |
such that the superblock was marked dirty and then written out via the
|
|
|
98901c |
closefs() path, it's possible that the buffer overrun could be
|
|
|
98901c |
triggered when the file system is closed.
|
|
|
98901c |
|
|
|
98901c |
Also clear up a signed vs unsigned warning while we're at it.

Thanks to Nick Kralevich <nnk@google.com> for asking me to look at
|
|
|
98901c |
compiler warning in the code in question, which led me to notice the
|
|
|
98901c |
bug in f66e6ce4446.
