multiboot: Reject kernels exceeding the address space
The code path where mh_load_end_addr is non-zero in the Multiboot header checks that mh_load_end_addr >= mh_load_addr and so mb_load_size is checked. However, mb_load_size is not checked when calculated from the file size, when mh_load_end_addr is 0. If the kernel binary size is larger than can fit in the address space after load_addr, we ended up with a kernel_size that is smaller than load_size, which means that we read the file into a too small buffer. Add a check to reject kernel files with such Multiboot headers. Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jack Schwartz <jack.schwartz@oracle.com>
