Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/jfs: Prevent integer overflow in AG size calculation The JFS filesystem calculates allocation group (AG) size using 1 << l2agsize in dbExtendFS(). When l2agsize exceeds 31 (possible with >2TB aggregates on 32-bit systems), this 32-bit shift operation causes undefined behavior and improper AG sizing. On 32-bit architectures: - Left-shifting 1 by 32+ bits results in 0 due to integer overflow - This creates invalid AG sizes (0 or garbage values) in sbi->bmap->db_agsize - Subsequent block allocations would reference invalid AG structures - Could lead to: - Filesystem corruption during extend operations - Kernel crashes due to invalid memory accesses - Security vulnerabilities via malformed on-disk structures Fix by casting to s64 before shifting: bmp->db_agsize = (s64)1 << l2agsize; This ensures 64-bit arithmetic even on 32-bit architectures. The cast matches the data type of db_agsize (s64) and follows similar patterns in JFS block calculation code. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

Cuando l2agsize supera 31 (posible con agregados de \u0026gt;2 TB en sistemas de 32 bits), esta operaci\u00f3n de desplazamiento de 32 bits provoca un comportamiento indefinido y un tama\u00f1o de AG incorrecto. En arquitecturas de 32 bits: - Desplazar 1 a la izquierda por 32+ bits da como resultado 0 debido al desbordamiento de enteros - Esto crea tama\u00f1os de AG no v\u00e1lidos (0 o valores basura) en sbi-\u0026gt;bmap-\u0026gt;db_agsize - Las asignaciones de bloques posteriores har\u00edan referencia a estructuras AG no v\u00e1lidas - Podr\u00eda conducir a: - Corrupci\u00f3n del sistema de archivos durante las operaciones de extensi\u00f3n - Fallos del kernel debido a accesos a memoria no v\u00e1lidos - Vulnerabilidades de seguridad mediante estructuras en disco malformadas Soluci\u00f3n mediante la conversi\u00f3n a s64 antes del desplazamiento: bmp-\u0026gt;db_agsize = (s64)1 \u0026lt;\u0026lt; l2agsize; Esto garantiza operaciones aritm\u00e9ticas de 64 bits incluso en arquitecturas de 32 bits. La conversi\u00f3n coincide con el tipo de dato de db_agsize (s64) y sigue patrones similares en el c\u00f3digo de c\u00e1lculo de bloques JFS.
