In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

squashfs: Add dictionary size range check to prevent shift-out-of-bounds

When an abnormal SquashFS image (COMP_OPTS flag is 1 but dictionary size is 0) is mounted, and performs shift operations using dictionarysize, the shift exponent is -1, causing a shift-out-of-bounds.

Detail as below: squashfs_comp_opts(msblk, buffer, length) squashfs_xz_comp_opts() if (comp_opts) n = ffs(opts->dict_size) - 1;<----opts->dict_size=0, n=-1 if (opts->dict_size != (1 << n) && opts->dict_size != (1 << n) + (1 << (n + 1))) <----shift-out-of-bounds

Fix it by adding a dictionary size range check before the shift operation.

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen im Linux Kernel ausnutzen, um einen nicht näher spezifizierten Angriff durchzuführen, möglicherweise einen Denial-of-Service-Angriff auszulösen, Daten zu manipulieren oder offenzulegen oder Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen.
