block: fix conversion of GPT partition name to 7-bit

2025-03-13T11:58:27+00:00

commit e06472bab2a5393430cc2fbc3211cd3602422c1e upstream. The utf16_le_to_7bit function claims to, naively, convert a UTF-16 string to a 7-bit ASCII string. By naively, we mean that it: * drops the first byte of every character in the original UTF-16 string * checks if all characters are printable, and otherwise replaces them by exclamation mark "!". This means that theoretically, all characters outside the 7-bit ASCII range should be replaced by another character. Examples: * lower-case alpha (ɒ) 0x0252 becomes 0x52 (R) * ligature OE (œ) 0x0153 becomes 0x53 (S) * hangul letter pieup (ㅂ) 0x3142 becomes 0x42 (B) * upper-case gamma (Ɣ) 0x0194 becomes 0x94 (not printable) so gets replaced by "!" The result of this conversion for the GPT partition name is passed to user-space as PARTNAME via udev, which is confusing and feels questionable. However, there is a flaw in the conversion function itself. By dropping one byte of each character and using isprint() to check if the remaining byte corresponds to a printable character, we do not actually guarantee that the resulting character is 7-bit ASCII. This happens because we pass 8-bit characters to isprint(), which in the kernel returns 1 for many values > 0x7f - as defined in ctype.c. This results in many values which should be replaced by "!" to be kept as-is, despite not being valid 7-bit ASCII. Examples: * e with acute accent (é) 0x00E9 becomes 0xE9 - kept as-is because isprint(0xE9) returns 1. * euro sign (€) 0x20AC becomes 0xAC - kept as-is because isprint(0xAC) returns 1. This way has broken pyudev utility[1], fixes it by using a mask of 7 bits instead of 8 bits before calling isprint.

partitions: mac: fix handling of bogus partition table

2025-02-21T12:57:18+00:00

commit 80e648042e512d5a767da251d44132553fe04ae0 upstream. Fix several issues in partition probing: - The bailout for a bad partoffset must use put_dev_sector(), since the preceding read_part_sector() succeeded. - If the partition table claims a silly sector size like 0xfff bytes (which results in partition table entries straddling sector boundaries), bail out instead of accessing out-of-bounds memory. - We must not assume that the partition table contains proper NUL termination - use strnlen() and strncmp() instead of strlen() and strcmp().

block: fix potential invalid pointer dereference in blk_add_partition

2024-10-04T14:29:01+00:00

[ Upstream commit 26e197b7f9240a4ac301dd0ad520c0c697c2ea7d ] The blk_add_partition() function initially used a single if-condition (IS_ERR(part)) to check for errors when adding a partition. This was modified to handle the specific case of -ENXIO separately, allowing the function to proceed without logging the error in this case. However, this change unintentionally left a path where md_autodetect_dev() could be called without confirming that part is a valid pointer. This commit separates the error handling logic by splitting the initial if-condition, improving code readability and handling specific error scenarios explicitly. The function now distinguishes the general error case from -ENXIO without altering the existing behavior of md_autodetect_dev() calls.

block: fix and simplify blkdevparts= cmdline parsing

2024-06-12T09:11:35+00:00

[ Upstream commit bc2e07dfd2c49aaa4b52302cf7b55cf94e025f79 ] Fix the cmdline parsing of the "blkdevparts=" parameter using strsep(), which makes the code simpler. Before commit 146afeb235cc ("block: use strscpy() to instead of strncpy()"), we used a strncpy() to copy a block device name and partition names. The commit simply replaced a strncpy() and NULL termination with a strscpy(). It did not update calculations of length passed to strscpy(). While the length passed to strncpy() is just a length of valid characters without NULL termination ('\0'), strscpy() takes it as a length of the destination buffer, including a NULL termination. Since the source buffer is not necessarily NULL terminated, the current code copies "length - 1" characters and puts a NULL character in the destination buffer. It replaces the last character with NULL and breaks the parsing. As an example, that buffer will be passed to parse_parts() and breaks parsing sub-partitions due to the missing ')' at the end, like the following. example (Check Point V-80 & OpenWrt): - Linux Kernel 6.6 [ 0.000000] Kernel command line: console=ttyS0,115200 earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0xf0512000 crashkernel=30M mvpp2x.queue_mode=1 blkdevparts=mmcblk1:48M@10M(kernel-1),1M(dtb-1),720M(rootfs-1),48M(kernel-2),1M(dtb-2),720M(rootfs-2),300M(default_sw),650M(logs),1M(preset_cfg),1M(adsl),-(storage) maxcpus=4 ...

Using strsep() helps to separate the string by the specified character. Then, we can use strscpy() naturally with the size of the destination buffer. Separating the string on the fly is also useful to omit the redundant string copy, reducing memory usage and improve the code readability.
