From 37b0b6b8b99c0e1c1f11abbe7cf49b6d03795b3f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2020 12:22:56 +0300 Subject: ext4: potential crash on allocation error in ext4_alloc_flex_bg_array() If sbi->s_flex_groups_allocated is zero and the first allocation fails then this code will crash. The problem is that "i--" will set "i" to -1 but when we compare "i >= sbi->s_flex_groups_allocated" then the -1 is type promoted to unsigned and becomes UINT_MAX. Since UINT_MAX is more than zero, the condition is true so we call kvfree(new_groups[-1]). The loop will carry on freeing invalid memory until it crashes.
