From 5fabcb4c33fe11c7e3afdf805fde26c1a54d0953 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2014 13:06:22 -0700 Subject: genhd: check for int overflow in disk_expand_part_tbl() We can get here from blkdev_ioctl() -> blkpg_ioctl() -> add_partition() with a user passed in partno value. If we pass in 0x7fffffff, the new target in disk_expand_part_tbl() overflows the 'int' and we access beyond the end of ptbl->part[] and even write to it when we do the rcu_assign_pointer() to assign the new partition.
