In\nceph_handle_auth_reply(), the value of the payload_len field of such a\nmessage is stored in a variable of type int. A value greater than\nINT_MAX leads to an integer overflow and is interpreted as a negative\nvalue. This leads to decrementing the pointer address by this value and\nsubsequently accessing it because ceph_decode_need() only checks that\nthe memory access does not exceed the end address of the allocation.\n\nThis patch fixes the issue by changing the data type of payload_len to\nu32. Additionally, the data type of result_msg_len is changed to u32,\nas it is also a variable holding a non-negative length.\n\nAlso, an additional layer of sanity checks is introduced, ensuring that\ndirectly after reading it from the message, payload_len and\nresult_msg_len are not greater than the overall segment length.\n\nBUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\nRead of size 4 at addr ffff88811404df14 by task kworker/20:1/262\n\nCPU: 20 UID: 0 PID: 262 Comm: kworker/20:1 Not tainted 6.19.2 #5 PREEMPT(voluntary)\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014\nWorkqueue: ceph-msgr ceph_con_workfn [libceph]\nCall Trace:\n \n dump_stack_lvl+0x76/0xa0\n print_report+0xd1/0x620\n ?
