[PATCH] jfs: xattr: check invalid xattr size more strictly

From: Artem Sadovnikov
Date: Sat Oct 05 2024 - 06:10:39 EST


Commit 7c55b78818cf ("jfs: xattr: fix buffer overflow for invalid xattr")
also addresses this issue but it only fixes it for positive values, while
ea_size is an integer type and can take negative values, e.g. in case of
a corrupted filesystem. This still breaks validation and would overflow
because of implicit conversion from int to size_t in print_hex_dump().

Fix this issue by clamping the ea_size value instead.
