[PATCH 3.2 009/152] ext4: check for extents that wrap around

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sun Nov 13 2016 - 22:03:40 EST


3.2.84-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit f70749ca42943faa4d4dcce46dfdcaadb1d0c4b6 upstream.

An extent with lblock = 4294967295 and len = 1 will pass the
ext4_valid_extent() test:

ext4_lblk_t last = lblock + len - 1;

if (len == 0 || lblock > last)
return 0;

since last = 4294967295 + 1 - 1 = 4294967295. This would later trigger
the BUG_ON(es->es_lblk + es->es_len < es->es_lblk) in ext4_es_end().

We can simplify it by removing the - 1 altogether and changing the test
to use lblock + len <= lblock, since now if len = 0, then lblock + 0 ==
lblock and it fails, and if len > 0 then lblock + len > lblock in order
to pass (i.e. it doesn't overflow).

Fixes: 5946d0893 ("ext4: check for overlapping extents in ext4_valid_extent_entries()")
Fixes: 2f974865f ("ext4: check for zero length extent explicitly")
