commit 44d2a72f4d64655f906ba47a5e108733f59e6f28 upstream. During xattr block validation, check_xattrs() processes xattr entries without validating that entries claiming to use EA inodes have non-zero sizes. Corrupted filesystems may contain xattr entries where e_value_size is zero but e_value_inum is non-zero, indicating invalid xattr data. Add validation in check_xattrs() to detect this corruption pattern early and return -EFSCORRUPTED, preventing invalid xattr entries from causing issues throughout the ext4 codebase.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
