In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: libceph: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in osdmap_decode() When decoding osd_state and osd_weight from an incoming osdmap in osdmap_decode(), both are decoded for each osd, i.e., map->max_osd times. The ceph_decode_need() check only accounts for sizeof(*map->osd_weight) once. This can potentially result in an out-of-bounds memory access if the incoming message is corrupted such that the max_osd value exceeds the actual content of the osdmap message. This patch fixes the issue by changing the corresponding part in the ceph_decode_need() check to account for map->max_osd*sizeof(*map->osd_weight).

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's `libceph` component. This vulnerability, located within the `osdmap_decode()` function, can lead to an out-of-bounds memory access. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending a specially crafted and corrupted `osdmap` message, where the `max_osd` value exceeds the actual message content. This could potentially result in system instability or other unforeseen impacts due to memory corruption.
