In acomp_virt_to_sg(), the dst_isfolio branch calls
acomp_request_set_src_sg() instead of acomp_request_set_dst_sg(). This
overwrites req->src with the destination folio SG and leaves req->dst
holding a raw struct folio pointer (via the src/dst union). The
algorithm then reads from the wrong buffer and dereferences the stale
folio pointer as a scatterlist.
The bug is reachable from UBIFS decompression on systems with a hardware
compression accelerator (HiSilicon ZIP, Intel IAA, Intel QAT), where
crypto_alloc_acomp() selects the hardware driver over scompress.
Software scompress backends are unaffected because they set
CRYPTO_ALG_REQ_CHAIN and bypass acomp_virt_to_sg() entirely.

In fact the code that you're referencing does not exist on mainline.

Hi Herbert, The patch was generated against v6.15-rc6 (82f2b0b97). The buggy line is at crypto/acompress.c:240 in that tag, and the index hash f7a3fbe54 matched (I just checked again). Could you double-check? Thanks, Aaron
