CVE-2025-37858
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/jfs: Prevent integer overflow in AG size calculation
The JFS filesystem calculates allocation group (AG) size using 1 << l2agsize in dbExtendFS(). When l2agsize exceeds 31 (possible with >2TB aggregates on 32-bit systems), this 32-bit shift operation causes undefined behavior and improper AG sizing.
On 32-bit architectures: - Left-shifting 1 by 32+ bits results in 0 due to integer overflow - This creates invalid AG sizes (0 or garbage values) in sbi->bmap->db_agsize - Subsequent block allocations would reference invalid AG structures - Could lead to: - Filesystem corruption during extend operations - Kernel crashes due to invalid memory accesses - Security vulnerabilities via malformed on-disk structures

This ensures 64-bit arithmetic even on 32-bit architectures. The cast matches the data type of db_agsize (s64) and follows similar patterns in JFS block calculation code.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

Fix by casting to s64 before shifting: bmp->db_agsize = (s64)1 << l2agsize;

"value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: fs/jfs: Evitar el desbordamiento de enteros en el cálculo del tamaño de AG El sistema de archivos JFS calcula el tamaño del grupo de asignación (AG) usando 1 << l2agsize en dbExtendFS(). Cuando l2agsize supera 31 (posible con agregados de >2 TB en sistemas de 32 bits), esta operación de desplazamiento de 32 bits provoca un comportamiento indefinido y un tamaño de AG incorrecto. En arquitecturas de 32 bits: - Desplazar 1 a la izquierda por 32+ bits da como resultado 0 debido al desbordamiento de enteros - Esto crea tamaños de AG no válidos (0 o valores basura) en sbi->bmap->db_agsize - Las asignaciones de bloques posteriores harían referencia a estructuras AG no válidas - Podría conducir a: - Corrupción del sistema de archivos durante las operaciones de extensión - Fallos del kernel debido a accesos a memoria no válidos - Vulnerabilidades de seguridad mediante estructuras en disco malformadas Solución mediante la conversión a s64 antes del desplazamiento: bmp->db_agsize = (s64)1 << l2agsize; Esto garantiza operaciones aritméticas de 64 bits incluso en arquitecturas de 32 bits. La conversión coincide con el tipo de dato de db_agsize (s64) y sigue patrones similares en el código de cálculo de bloques JFS.
