      "title": "dm-pcache: validate seg_id fields from persistent memory",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndm-pcache: validate seg_id fields from persistent memory\n\ncache_pos_decode(), cache_key_decode() and the last-kset branches of\ncache_replay(), the writeback worker and the GC worker take a cache\nsegment id from the cache device metadata and index cache->segments[]\nwith it without checking it against cache->n_segs. That metadata is only\nCRC-protected with a fixed public seed, so whoever supplies the cache\ndevice on a table load (CAP_SYS_ADMIN) controls the id; an out-of-range\nvalue forms a wild pcache_cache_segment pointer that is dereferenced and\nwritten through -- an out-of-bounds read and write driven by on-disk data.\n\nAdd cache_seg_id_valid() and reject an out-of-range id at each decode\nsite, failing the operation with -EIO instead of indexing past the array.\nBound the id against the initialized-segment count (cache_info.n_segs)\nrather than the physical device total. A forged cache_info.n_segs below\nseg_num otherwise leaves segments[cache_info.n_segs..seg_num) as zeroed\nstructs whose data pointer is NULL, so a forged id in that window would\nstill be dereferenced. A later patch guarantees cache_info.n_segs <=\nseg_num, and a driver-created cache sets the two equal, so valid images\nare unaffected.",
