[PATCH v4 2/3] fs: don't let getdents return bogus names

From: Jann Horn
Date: Fri Jan 18 2019 - 11:15:08 EST


When you e.g. run `find` on a directory for which getdents returns
"filenames" that contain slashes, `find` passes those "filenames" back to
the kernel, which then interprets them as paths. That could conceivably
cause userspace to do something bad when accessing something like an
untrusted USB stick, but I'm not aware of any specific example.

Instead of returning bogus filenames to userspace, return -EUCLEAN.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")

I ordered this fix before the refactoring one so that it can easily be
backported.

changed in v2:
- move bogus_dirent_name() out of the #ifdef (kbuild test robot)
changed in v3:
- change calling convention (Al Viro)
- comment fix
changed in v4:
- use EFSCORRUPTED instead of EUCLEAN (Dave Chinner)
