4 Subject: [PATCH] libext2fs: fix potential buffer overflow in closefs()
5
6 Upstream commit 49d0fe2a14f2.
7
8 The bug fix in f66e6ce4446: "libext2fs: avoid buffer overflow if
9 s_first_meta_bg is too big" had a typo in the fix for
10 ext2fs_closefs().  In practice most of the security exposure was from
11 the openfs path, since this meant if there was a carefully crafted
12 file system, buffer overrun would be triggered when the file system was
13 opened.
14
15 However, if corrupted file system didn't trip over some corruption
16 check, and then the file system was modified via tune2fs or debugfs,
17 such that the superblock was marked dirty and then written out via the
18 closefs() path, it's possible that the buffer overrun could be
19 triggered when the file system is closed.
20
21 Also clear up a signed vs unsigned warning while we're at it.
22
23 Thanks to Nick Kralevich <nnk@google.com> for asking me to look at
24 compiler warning in the code in question, which led me to notice the
25 bug in f66e6ce4446.
