Merge: Squashfs: check the inode number is not the invalid value of zero
MR: https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/src/kernel/centos-stream-9/-/merge_requests/4214 Author: Abhi Das <adas@redhat.com> Date: Fri May 17 09:25:52 2024 -0500 Squashfs: check the inode number is not the invalid value of zero JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-35098 CVE: CVE-2024-26982 Upstream Status: From upstream linux mainline commit 9253c54 Author: Phillip Lougher <phillip@squashfs.org.uk> Date: Mon Apr 8 23:02:06 2024 +0100 Squashfs: check the inode number is not the invalid value of zero Syskiller has produced an out of bounds access in fill_meta_index(). That out of bounds access is ultimately caused because the inode has an inode number with the invalid value of zero, which was not checked. The reason this causes the out of bounds access is due to following sequence of events: 1. Fill_meta_index() is called to allocate (via empty_meta_index()) and fill a metadata index. It however suffers a data read error and aborts, invalidating the newly returned empty metadata index. It does this by setting the inode number of the index to zero, which means unused (zero is not a valid inode number). 2. When fill_meta_index() is subsequently called again on another read operation, locate_meta_index() returns the previous index because it matches the inode number of 0. Because this index has been returned it is expected to have been filled, and because it hasn't been, an out of bounds access is performed. This patch adds a sanity check which checks that the inode number is not zero when the inode is created and returns -EINVAL if it is.
