In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hfsplus: prevent corruption in shrinking truncate
I believe there are some issues introduced by commit 31651c607151 ("hfsplus: avoid deadlock on file truncation")
HFS+ has extent records which always contains 8 extents. In case the first extent record in catalog file gets full, new ones are allocated from extents overflow file.
In case shrinking truncate happens to middle of an extent record which locates in extents overflow file, the logic in hfsplus_file_truncate() was changed so that call to hfs_brec_remove() is not guarded any more.
Right action would be just freeing the extents that exceed the new size inside extent record by calling hfsplus_free_extents(), and then check if the whole extent record should be removed. However since the guard (blk_cnt > start) is now after the call to hfs_brec_remove(), this has unfortunate effect that the last matching extent record is removed unconditionally.
To reproduce
