      <title>CVE-2023-54021 — ext4: set goal start correctly in ext4_mb_normalize_request</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2023-54021</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ext4: set goal start correctly in ext4_mb_normalize_request&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We need to set ac_g_ex to notify the goal start used in
ext4_mb_find_by_goal. Set ac_g_ex instead of ac_f_ex in
ext4_mb_normalize_request.
Besides we should assure goal start is in range [first_data_block,
blocks_count) as ext4_mb_initialize_context does.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;[ Added a check to make sure size is less than ar-&amp;gt;pright; otherwise
  we could end up passing an underflowed value of ar-&amp;gt;pright - size to
  ext4_get_group_no_and_offset(), which will trigger a BUG_ON later on.
