In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/jfs: Prevent integer overflow in AG size calculation
The JFS filesystem calculates allocation group (AG) size using 1 <<
l2agsize in dbExtendFS(). When l2agsize exceeds 31 (possible with >2TB
aggregates on 32-bit systems), this 32-bit shift operation causes undefined
behavior and improper AG sizing.
On 32-bit architectures:
- Left-shifting 1 by 32+ bits results in 0 due to integer overflow
- This creates invalid AG sizes (0 or garbage values) in
sbi->bmap->db_agsize
- Subsequent block allocations would reference invalid AG structures
- Could lead to:
- Filesystem corruption during extend operations
- Kernel crashes due to invalid memory accesses
- Security vulnerabilities via malformed on-disk structures
Fix by casting to s64 before shifting:
bmp->db_agsize = (s64)1 << l2agsize;
This ensures 64-bit arithmetic even on 32-bit architectures. The cast
matches the data type of db_agsize (s64) and follows similar patterns in
JFS block calculation code.
