[PATCH] Fix WARNING in __ext4_ioctl
Posted by Pei Li 1 year, 5 months ago
Specify the size of s_volume_name in strscpy_pad() to avoid buffer
overflow.

Reported-by: syzbot+2cab87506a0e7885f4b9@syzkaller.appspotmail.com
Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=2cab87506a0e7885f4b9

strscpy_pad() by default takes the size of destination string as the
size to be read from source string. However, as s_volume_name is only
declared as an array of size EXT4_LABEL_MAX, we are reading 1 byte more
than expected.

Specify the size of s_volume_name in strscpy_pad() to avoid buffer
overflow.

Please add,
Fixes: 744a56389f73 ("ext4: replace deprecated strncpy with alternatives")

I'd suggested to move this into the commit log to make it easier to
understand, and IIUC this issue only happens when s_volume_name is full
of 16 bytes length since it's not NULL terminated, so it can't break out
after copying 16 bytes.

Thanks,
Yi.
