Subject: CVE-2024-47701: ext4: avoid OOB when system.data xattr changes underneath the filesystem

Description
===========

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

ext4: avoid OOB when system.data xattr changes underneath the filesystem

When looking up for an entry in an inlined directory, if e_value_offs is
changed underneath the filesystem by some change in the block device, it
will lead to an out-of-bounds access that KASAN detects as an UAF.

EXT4-fs (loop0): mounted filesystem 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 r/w without journal. Quota mode: none.
loop0: detected capacity change from 2048 to 2047

Calling ext4_xattr_ibody_find right after reading the inode with
ext4_get_inode_loc will lead to a check of the validity of the xattrs,
avoiding this problem.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-47701 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
