Since\nNTFS_SB_SIZE == PAGE_SIZE the destination is a single page, so the byte\nlands in the adjacent page, and *dest_ofs is left one past the sub-block\nend (the later `*dest_ofs &= ~PAGE_MASK` then yields 1, not 0, so the page\nis never finalized and later sub-blocks keep writing further past it).  A\ncorrupted compressed $DATA attribute thus produces a bounded run of\nout-of-bounds writes when the file is read.\n\nBreak as soon as dp_addr reaches dp_sb_end; a full sub-block still\ncompletes, as its final copy advances dp_addr to exactly dp_sb_end.","cvssScore":7.8,"cvssSeverity":"HIGH","cvssVector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","cwes":[],"vendors":[],"products":[],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/98716c9fce21f6c8a9d71e08cf53e7504fa562f4","tags":[]},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b42644e425fed4a5cd6c88372655da5c1b52c666","tags":[]}],"exploitRefs":[],"hasPoc":false,"ai":null}
