[PATCH v4 4/9] ext4: fix slab-out-of-bounds in ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists()

From: Baokun Li
Date: Tue Mar 19 2024 - 07:34:06 EST


We can trigger a slab-out-of-bounds with the following commands:

mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/$disk 10G
mount /dev/$disk /tmp/test
echo 2147483647 > /sys/fs/ext4/$disk/mb_group_prealloc
echo test > /tmp/test/file && sync

==================================================================

The flow of issue triggering is as follows:

// Set s_mb_group_prealloc to 2147483647 via sysfs
ext4_mb_new_blocks
ext4_mb_normalize_request
ext4_mb_normalize_group_request
ac->ac_g_ex.fe_len = EXT4_SB(sb)->s_mb_group_prealloc
ext4_mb_regular_allocator
ext4_mb_choose_next_group
ext4_mb_choose_next_group_best_avail
mb_avg_fragment_size_order
order = fls(len) - 2 = 29
ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists
frag_list = &sbi->s_mb_avg_fragment_size[order]
if (list_empty(frag_list)) // Trigger SOOB!

At 4k block size, the length of the s_mb_avg_fragment_size list is 14,
but an oversized s_mb_group_prealloc is set, causing slab-out-of-bounds
to be triggered by an attempt to access an element at index 29.

Add a new attr_id attr_clusters_in_group with values in the range
[0, sbi->s_clusters_per_group] and declare mb_group_prealloc as
that type to fix the issue. In addition avoid returning an order
from mb_avg_fragment_size_order() greater than MB_NUM_ORDERS(sb)
and reduce some useless loops.
