[29/66] ocfs2: Dont walk off the end of fast symlinks.

[Greg KH]

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Joel Becker <joel.becker@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 1fc8a117865b54590acd773a55fbac9221b018f0 upstream.

ocfs2 fast symlinks are NUL terminated strings stored inline in the
inode data area.  However, disk corruption or a local attacker could, in
theory, remove that NUL.  Because we're using strlen() (my fault,
introduced in a731d1 when removing vfs_follow_link()), we could walk off
the end of that string.
