Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> hfs: fix slab-out-of-bounds in hfs_bnode_read()<br /> <br /> This patch introduces is_bnode_offset_valid() method that checks<br /> the requested offset value. Also, it introduces<br /> check_and_correct_requested_length() method that checks and<br /> correct the requested length (if it is necessary). These methods<br /> are used in hfs_bnode_read(), hfs_bnode_write(), hfs_bnode_clear(),<br /> hfs_bnode_copy(), and hfs_bnode_move() with the goal to prevent<br /> the access out of allocated memory and triggering the crash.
