Description Victor Pereira 2015-01-29 09:23:16 UTC 
rh#1163792

It was found that there are no size checks in the splice IO path, so it's
possible to send a write past s_maxbytes to a filesystem.  For ext4, at
least, this ends badly, with a BUG_ON.

A local unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash the system.

Red Hat would like to thank Akira Fujita of NEC for reporting this issue.

(this patch rearranges splice with a side effect of invoking
generic_write_checks() along the way)

Comment 4 Miklos Szeredi 2015-02-09 16:57:18 UTC 
Pushed to SLE11-SP3 and SLE12

The splice(2) syscall was introduced in 2.6.17 so SLE10 isn't affected.

Michal, do you want to take care of the -TD branches?
Comment 6 Miklos Szeredi 2015-02-10 09:06:45 UTC 
Pushed to openSUSE-13.1 as well.

openSUSE-13.2 is fixed upstream by

  8d0207652cbe ("->splice_write() via ->write_iter()")
Comment 7 Michal Hocko 2015-02-16 10:37:21 UTC 
applied to SLE11-SP1-TD as well. Thanks a lot Miklos.
Comment 8 Swamp Workflow Management 2015-02-26 10:06:28 UTC

Comment 13 Jiri Slaby 2015-04-03 12:02:33 UTC 
We seem to have 2 checks in generic_file_splice_write now. One coming from one of v3.12.39 commits and one from this bug.

Can the patch from this bug be removed now?
