Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
ext4: add bounds checking in get_max_inline_xattr_value_size()<br />
<br />
Normally the extended attributes in the inode body would have been<br />
checked when the inode is first opened, but if someone is writing to<br />
the block device while the file system is mounted, it&#39;s possible for<br />
the inode table to get corrupted. Add bounds checking to avoid<br />
reading beyond the end of allocated memory if this happens.
