## Overview

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

udf: validate sparing table length as an entry count, not a byte count

udf_load_sparable_map() accepts a sparing table when

	sizeof(*st) + le16_to_cpu(st->reallocationTableLen) > sb->s_blocksize

is false, i.e. it treats reallocationTableLen as a number of BYTES that
must fit in the block.  But the table is walked as an array of 8-byte
sparingEntry elements:

	for (i = 0; i < le16_to_cpu(st->reallocationTableLen); i++) {
		struct sparingEntry *entry = &st->mapEntry[i];
		... entry->origLocation ...
	}

in udf_get_pblock_spar15() and udf_relocate_blocks().  A
reallocationTableLen of N therefore passes the check whenever
sizeof(*st) + N <= blocksize, yet the consumers index
sizeof(*st) + N * sizeof(struct sparingEntry) bytes -- up to ~8x the
block.  On a crafted UDF image this is an out-of-bounds read in
udf_get_pblock_spar15(); udf_relocate_blocks() additionally feeds the
same length to udf_update_tag(), whose crc_itu_t() reads far past the
block, and its memmove() through st->mapEntry[] is an out-of-bounds
write.

Validate reallocationTableLen as the entry count it is, with
struct_size().
