DEBIAN-CVE-2025-40167

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: detect invalid INLINEDATA + EXTENTS flag combination syzbot reported a BUGON in ext4escacheextent() when opening a verity file on a corrupted ext4 filesystem mounted without a journal. The issue is that the filesystem has an inode with both the INLINEDATA and EXTENTS flags set: EXT4-fs error (device loop0): ext4cacheextents:545: inode #15: comm syz.0.17: corrupted extent tree: lblk 0 < prev 66 Investigation revealed that the inode has both flags set: DEBUG: inode 15 - flag=1, iinlineoff=164, hasinline=1, extentsflag=1 This is an invalid combination since an inode should have either: - INLINEDATA: data stored directly in the inode - EXTENTS: data stored in extent-mapped blocks Having both flags causes ext4hasinlinedata() to return true, skipping extent tree validation in __ext4iget(). The unvalidated out-of-order extents then trigger a BUGON in ext4escacheextent() due to integer underflow when calculating hole sizes. Fix this by detecting this invalid flag combination early in ext4iget() and rejecting the corrupted inode.
