Description Michiel Pelt 2006-03-15 15:40:18 UTC
I was just examining the kernel sources for the development plans I have
and stumbled upon lib/libufs/block.c rev 1.10. The following code is
incorrect :

	if (((intptr_t)data) & 0x3f) {
		p2 = malloc(size);
		if (p2 == NULL)
			ERROR(disk, "allocate bounce buffer");
	}
	cnt = pread(disk->d_fd, p2, size, (off_t)(blockno * disk->d_bsize));

If the malloc fails, pread will be called with the NULL pointer p2 with
serious consequences. Same problem with the bwrite function:

	if (((intptr_t)data) & 0x3f) {
		p2 = malloc(size);
		if (p2 == NULL)
			ERROR(disk, "allocate bounce buffer");
		memcpy(p2, data, size);
		data = p2;
	}
	cnt = pwrite(disk->d_fd, data, size, (off_t)(blockno * disk->d_bsize));

Fix: 

if (((intptr_t)data) & 0x3f) {
		p2 = malloc(size);
		if (p2 == NULL) {
			ERROR(disk, "allocate bounce buffer");
                        goto fail;
                }
	}
	cnt = pread(disk->d_fd, p2, size, (off_t)(blockno * disk->d_bsize));


..


	if (((intptr_t)data) & 0x3f) {
		p2 = malloc(size);
		if (p2 == NULL) {
			ERROR(disk, "allocate bounce buffer");
                        return (-1);
                }
		memcpy(p2, data, size);
		data = p2;
	}
	cnt = pwrite(disk->d_fd, data, size, (off_t)(blockno * disk->d_bsize));
How-To-Repeat: call bread, bwrite with a very large unaligned buffer ...
