In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:hfs: fix slab-out-of-bounds in hfs_bnode_read()This patch introduces is_bnode_offset_valid() method that checksthe requested offset value. Also, it introducescheck_and_correct_requested_length() method that checks andcorrect the requested length (if it is necessary). These methodsare used in hfs_bnode_read(), hfs_bnode_write(), hfs_bnode_clear(),hfs_bnode_copy(), and hfs_bnode_move() with the goal to preventthe access out of allocated memory and triggering the crash.
