Hi,

Using the attached disk image I observe that getdents() never returns
the end of the directory, i.e. mounting the disk image on a loopback
device and running 'ls' under strace shows an endless stream of:

getdents(3, /* 2 entries */, 32768)     = 48
getdents(3, /* 2 entries */, 32768)     = 48
getdents(3, /* 2 entries */, 32768)     = 48
...

Please more details. Is this image hand crafted?
If not, how has it been created? Is is supposed to work?

From a quick look it seems as the root directory is bad but we report
progress in ->iterate.
ctx->pos is 2, we set it back to 0, because of the faked dot entries.
but fat_get_entry() did not make any progress and we report 0 back to VFS.
So, VFS sees progress and the game continues.

Does the attached patch help?

It was created by fuzzing, it is not supposed to work per se.

Yes, it does fixes the problem here, but I can't really comment on the
correctness of the patch.

Thanks for the quick reponse,

I made cleanup and made sure fake_offset is corrected.

Richard, Signed-off-by was missed in your patch, so I added. Can you
agree to Signed-off-by?

It would be nice to have a proper patch description too. How about this?

"""
For the root directory, . and .. are faked (using dir_emit_dots()) and
ctx->pos is reset from 2 to 0.

A corrupted root directory could cause fat_get_entry() to fail, but
->iterate() (fat_readdir()) reports progress to the VFS (with ctx->pos
rewound to 0), so any following calls to ->iterate() continue to return
the same entries again and again.

The result is that userspace will never see the end of the directory,
causing e.g. 'ls' to hang in a getdents() loop.

[PATCH v3] fat: Fix fake_offset handling on error path

For the root directory, . and .. are faked (using dir_emit_dots()) and
ctx->pos is reset from 2 to 0.

A corrupted root directory could cause fat_get_entry() to fail, but
->iterate() (fat_readdir()) reports progress to the VFS (with ctx->pos
rewound to 0), so any following calls to ->iterate() continue to return
the same entries again and again.

The result is that userspace will never see the end of the directory,
causing e.g. 'ls' to hang in a getdents() loop.
