      "title": "dm log: fix out-of-bounds write due to region_count overflow",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndm log: fix out-of-bounds write due to region_count overflow\n\nThe local variable region_count in create_log_context() is declared as\nunsigned int (32-bit), but dm_sector_div_up() returns sector_t (64-bit).\nWhen a device-mapper target has a sufficiently large ti->len with a small\nregion_size, the division result can exceed UINT_MAX. The truncated\nvalue is then used to calculate bitset_size, causing clean_bits,\nsync_bits, and recovering_bits to be allocated far smaller than needed\nfor the actual number of regions.\n\nSubsequent log operations (log_set_bit, log_clear_bit, log_test_bit) use\nregion indices derived from the full untruncated region space, causing\nout-of-bounds writes to kernel heap memory allocated by vmalloc.\n\nThis can be reproduced by creating a mirror target whose region_count\noverflows 32 bits:\n\n  dmsetup create bigzero --table '0 8589934594 zero'\n  dmsetup create mymirror --table '0 8589934594 mirror \\\n    core 2 2 nosync 2 /dev/mapper/bigzero 0 \\\n    /dev/mapper/bigzero 0'\n\nThe status output confirms the truncation (sync_count=1 instead of\n4294967297, because 0x100000001 was truncated to 1):\n\n  $ dmsetup status mymirror\n  0 8589934594 mirror 2 254:1 254:1 1/4294967297 ...\n\nThis leads to a kernel crash in core_in_sync:\n\n  BUG: scheduling while atomic: (udev-worker)/9150/0x00000000\n  RIP: 0010:core_in_sync+0x14/0x30 [dm_log]\n  CR2: 0000000000000008\n  Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!\n\nFix by widening the local region_count to sector_t and adding an\nexplicit overflow check before the value is assigned to lc->region_count.",
