Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
erofs: fix the out-of-bounds nameoff handling for trailing dirents<br />
<br />
Currently we already have boundary-checks for nameoffs, but the trailing<br />
dirents are special since the namelens are calculated with strnlen()<br />
with unchecked nameoffs.<br />
<br />
If a crafted EROFS has a trailing dirent with nameoff >= maxsize,<br />
maxsize - nameoff can underflow, causing strnlen() to read past the<br />
directory block.<br />
<br />
nameoff0 should also be verified to be a multiple of<br />
`sizeof(struct erofs_dirent)` as well [1].<br />
