[PATCH 4.4 086/137] ext4: check for directory entries too close to block end

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Jan 02 2020 - 17:40:31 EST


From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx>

commit 109ba779d6cca2d519c5dd624a3276d03e21948e upstream.

ext4_check_dir_entry() currently does not catch a case when a directory
entry ends so close to the block end that the header of the next
directory entry would not fit in the remaining space. This can lead to
directory iteration code trying to access address beyond end of current
buffer head leading to oops.
