The OSD reply header field op->payload_len is wire-controlled and is
copied directly into m->outdata_len[i] without any bounds check:
m->outdata_len[i] = le32_to_cpu(op->payload_len);
This value propagates unchecked to req->r_ops[0].outdata_len and is
then used to set the decode boundary in ceph_osdc_list_watchers():
void *const end = p + req->r_ops[0].outdata_len;
The actual data allocation is always exactly one page:
ceph_alloc_page_vector(1, GFP_NOIO)
ceph_osd_data_pages_init(..., PAGE_SIZE, ...)
The messenger caps the copy to PAGE_SIZE bytes, but the decode window
end is set from the uncapped wire value. A malicious OSD can send
outdata_len=0x10000, causing _safe decoder boundary checks to pass
while the physical reads cross the slab allocation boundary.

val=0xccccaaaa (OOB garbage from KASAN redzone)
Fix by capping the decode window end to PAGE_SIZE, matching the
actual allocation size.
Attacker model: a malicious or compromised OSD in a multi-tenant
Ceph deployment can trigger this against any client issuing
CEPH_OSD_OP_LIST_WATCHERS without further privileges beyond OSD
session establishment.
Fixes: a4ed38d7a180 ("libceph: support for CEPH_OSD_OP_LIST_WATCHERS")
