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

ext4: check dir entry fits before reading the hash trailer in ext4_search_dir()

For casefolded encrypted directories ext4 stores an 8-byte hash trailer
after the name (EXT4_DIRENT_HASHES()), at an offset derived from
de->name_len.  On the sb_no_casefold_compat_fallback() path ext4_match()
reads that trailer, but ext4_search_dir()'s by-hand pre-check only tests
de->name + de->name_len <= dlimit, which proves the name fits, not the
rounded trailer.  A crafted entry whose name ends at the block boundary
passes the check while EXT4_DIRENT_HASHES(de) lands past the block end,
so ext4_match() reads out of bounds on an ordinary lookup.  KASAN reports
it as a use-after-free when the page after the directory block holds a
freed object:

  BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ext4_match (fs/ext4/namei.c:1435)

Require, for hash-in-dirent directories, that the whole entry including
the rounded trailer fits before calling ext4_match().  This is the same
bound ext4_check_dir_entry() already enforces via ext4_dir_rec_len(), so
no well-formed entry is rejected.  The other caller, ext4_find_dest_de(),
runs ext4_check_dir_entry() first and is unaffected.
