CVE-2025-38230

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

jfs: validate AG parameters in dbMount() to prevent crashes

Validate dbagheight, dbagwidth, and db_agstart in dbMount to catch corrupted metadata early and avoid undefined behavior in dbAllocAG. Limits are derived from L2LPERCTL, LPERCTL/MAXAG, and CTLTREESIZE:

• agheight: 0 to L2LPERCTL/2 (0 to 5) ensures shift (L2LPERCTL - 2*agheight) >= 0.
• agwidth: 1 to min(LPERCTL/MAXAG, 2^(L2LPERCTL - 2agheight)) ensures agperlev >= 1.
  • Ranges: 1-8 (agheight 0-3), 1-4 (agheight 4), 1 (agheight 5).
  • LPERCTL/MAXAG = 1024/128 = 8 limits leaves per AG; 2^(10 - 2agheight) prevents division to 0.
• agstart: 0 to CTLTREESIZE-1 - agwidth*(MAXAG-1) keeps ti within stree (size 1365).
  • Ranges: 0-1237 (agwidth 1), 0-348 (agwidth 8).
