A crafted image logging a\nsmall blf_len together with a bitmap bit past the end of that buffer\ndrives the memcpy() past the buffer's allocation, corrupting adjacent\nkernel heap during mount-time log recovery. This is reachable by anyone\nwho can get a crafted image mounted -- the malicious-filesystem threat\nmodel XFS already guards against elsewhere.\n\nTurn the ASSERT() into a real XFS_IS_CORRUPT() check that aborts recovery\nof the buffer with -EFSCORRUPTED, consistent with the validate-and-fail\nidiom already used in xlog_recover_do_inode_buffer() and\nxfs_dquot_item_recover.c. xlog_recover_do_reg_buffer() therefore becomes\nSTATIC int and its three callers propagate the error.\n\nFound and confirmed with KASAN on a CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG=n build: the crafted\nimage trips a slab-out-of-bounds write before this change and fails\nrecovery cleanly with -EFSCORRUPTED after it."
