From 4ec110281379826c5cf6ed14735e47027c3c5765 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2009 14:53:26 -0500 Subject: ext4: Add sanity checks for the superblock before mounting the filesystem This avoids insane superblock configurations that could lead to kernel oops due to null pointer derefences. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12371 Thanks to David Maciejak at Fortinet's FortiGuard Global Security Research Team who discovered this bug independently (but at approximately the same time) as Thiemo Nagel, who submitted the patch.
