Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> erofs: fix out-of-bound access when z_erofs_gbuf_growsize() partially fails<br /> <br /> If z_erofs_gbuf_growsize() partially fails on a global buffer due to<br /> memory allocation failure or fault injection (as reported by syzbot [1]),<br /> new pages need to be freed by comparing to the existing pages to avoid<br /> memory leaks.<br /> <br /> However, the old gbuf-&gt;pages[] array may not be large enough, which can<br /> lead to null-ptr-deref or out-of-bound access.<br /> <br /> Fix this by checking against gbuf-&gt;nrpages in advance.<br /> <br /> [1] https://lore.kernel.org/r/000000000000f7b96e062018c6e3@google.com
