parentntfs: match ntfs_resident_attr_min_value_length with $AttrDef (diff)
ntfs: fix default_upcase refcount underflow and UAF on fs_context teardown
ntfs_init_fs_context() allocates a fresh ntfs_volume with vol->upcase left as NULL. ntfs_free_fs_context() unconditionally calls ntfs_volume_free() during fs_context teardown, even when ntfs_fill_super() never ran or already cleaned up. ntfs_volume_free() then executes: mutex_lock(&ntfs_lock); if (vol->upcase == default_upcase) { ntfs_nr_upcase_users--; vol->upcase = NULL; } When the global default_upcase is also NULL (very first mount attempt, or all prior mounts have released the table), the comparison is NULL == NULL, and ntfs_nr_upcase_users is decremented even though this volume never claimed a reference. ntfs_nr_upcase_users is unsigned long, so the decrement wraps to ULONG_MAX. A subsequent successful mount can then free the shared table while the mounted volume still points at it: 1. ntfs_fill_super() does the temporary ntfs_nr_upcase_users++ at the "Generate the global default upcase table if necessary" block. With the prior wraparound this brings the counter back to 0. 2. If the volume's $UpCase matches the default, the match path does ntfs_nr_upcase_users++ and sets vol->upcase = default_upcase. The counter is now 1. 3. On the success path, !--ntfs_nr_upcase_users evaluates true and default_upcase is kvfree()'d while vol->upcase still points at it. Subsequent upcase comparisons through that mount touch freed memory. This was reproduced with KASAN by closing a fresh fsopen("ntfs") context, then mounting an NTFS image whose $UpCase table matches generate_default_upcase(), and finally doing a case-insensitive lookup. KASAN reports the dangling vol->upcase access: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ntfs_collate_names+0x3b4/0x420 Read of size 2 at addr ffff888008d40048 by task init/1 ntfs_collate_names+0x3b4/0x420 ntfs_lookup_inode_by_name+0x1921/0x3130 ntfs_lookup+0x193/0xc40 vfs_statx+0xc7/0x190 vfs_fstatat+0x4b/0xa0 __do_sys_newfstatat+0x92/0xf0 The same QEMU reproducer was rerun after this change with KASAN enabled. It reached "reproducer finished", and the log contained no KASAN, use-after-free, Oops, or panic signatures. Guard each comparison with an explicit vol->upcase non-NULL check so a volume that never took a reference cannot decrement the global users counter. Apply the same guard to the other default_upcase release sites so all cleanup paths follow the same ownership rule: only volumes that actually hold a default_upcase reference may drop one.
