CVE-2026-52992

Estado: AnalizadaAlta (7.8)—

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

fs/adfs: validate nzones in adfs_validate_bblk()

Reject ADFS disc records with a zero zone count during boot block validation, before the disc record is used.

When nzones is 0, adfs_read_map() passes it to kmalloc_array(0, ...) which returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR, and adfs_map_layout() then writes to dm[-1], causing an out-of-bounds write before the allocated buffer.

adfs_validate_dr0() already rejects nzones != 1 for old-format images. Add the equivalent check to adfs_validate_bblk() for new-format images so that a crafted image with nzones == 0 is rejected at probe time.
