Subject: [PATCH 01/46] libext2fs: fix crash in ext2fs_open2() on Big Endian
 systems
Content-Type: text/plain

Commit e6069a05: ("Teach ext2fs_open2() to honor the
EXT2_FLAG_SUPER_ONLY flag") changed how the function
ext2fs_group_desc() handled a request for a gdp pointer for a group
larger than the number of groups in the file system; it now returns
NULL, instead of returning a pointer beyond the end of the array.

Previously, the ext2fs_open2() function would swap all of the block
group descriptors in a block, even if they are beyond the end of the
file system.  This was OK, since we were not overrunning the allocated
memory, since it was rounded to a block boundary.  But now that
ext2fs_group_desc() would return NULL for those gdp, it would cause
ext2fs_open2(), when it was byte swapping the block group descriptors
on Big Endian systems, to dereference a null pointer and crash.

This commit adds a NULL pointer check to avoid byte swapping those
block group descriptors in a bg descriptor block, but which are beyond
the end of the file system, to address this crash.
