Three defects:\n\n - dlm_migrate_request_handler() passes migrate->namelen unchecked to\n dlm_init_mle(), which memcpy()s it into the 32-byte mname[] of an\n o2dlm_mle slab object: a heap out-of-bounds write of up to ~215\n attacker-controlled bytes.\n\n - dlm_mig_lockres_handler() passes mres->lockname_len unchecked to\n dlm_init_lockres(), which memcpy()s it into the 32-byte o2dlm_lockname\n slab object: a heap out-of-bounds write of up to ~223 bytes.\n\n - the same handler trusts mres->num_locks without checking that the\n message is large enough to hold that many entries, so\n dlm_process_recovery_data() walks mres->ml[] past the kmalloc(data_len)\n copy and trips a BUG_ON (an out-of-bounds read ending in a panic).\n\nThe other o2dlm receive handlers already reject an oversized name; the\nmigration and recovery handlers have omitted it since the DLM was added\n(see the Fixes tags).

Conforming recovery and\nmigration traffic is unaffected.\n\no2net authenticates peers only by the DLM domain key, so any node that has\njoined the domain -- including a compromised or malicious member -- can\nsend these messages. There is no local trigger; the attacker must already\nbe a member of the cluster.\n\nEach sink was confirmed under KASAN with an out-of-tree module mirroring\nit exactly -- a kmem_cache/kmalloc of the real destination size, then the\nsame unclamped memcpy/loop: slab-out-of-bounds Write for the two writes,\nRead for the recovery walk, and a panic.
