The physically-mapped (XIP) fast path dereferences the linear filesystem
image directly using offsets taken from the on-disk inode. Unlike the
normal read path (cramfs_direct_read()), cramfs_get_block_range() and
cramfs_last_page_is_shared() do not check those offsets against the image
size before dereferencing:
blockptrs = (u32 *)(sbi->linear_virt_addr + OFFSET(inode) + pgoff * 4);
first_block_addr = blockptrs[0] & ~CRAMFS_BLK_FLAGS;
OFFSET(inode) (the inode data offset) and the block pointers are read
from the untrusted on-disk image. A crafted cramfs image with the
CRAMFS_FLAG_EXT_BLOCK_POINTERS feature and an out-of-range inode offset
makes the block-pointer read -- and the subsequent tail-data scan in
cramfs_last_page_is_shared() -- dereference memory outside the mapped
image. mmap()ing a regular file on such an image then faults in the
kernel (page fault in cramfs_physmem_mmap()).
Bound every linear-image dereference in the XIP path to sbi->size, the
same way cramfs_direct_read() already does, and fall back to the bounded
paging path on any out-of-range access.

Reproduced on v7.1-rc6 with KASAN, CONFIG_CRAMFS_MTD + MTD_MTDRAM (a small
RAM-backed mtd as the linear cramfs backing). A crafted cramfs image with
CRAMFS_FLAG_EXT_BLOCK_POINTERS set and a regular file whose on-disk inode
offset is out of range, mounted over the mtd backend, faults the kernel when
the file is mmap()ed:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address ...
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
RIP: ... cramfs_physmem_mmap+0x...
__mmap_region
mmap_region
do_mmap
vm_mmap_pgoff
ksys_mmap_pgoff
A control image with an in-range offset maps and reads cleanly. With this
patch the crafted image's XIP fast path detects the out-of-range offset and
falls back to the bounded paging path; no fault occurs.
