From: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.6 commit aa9f7d5172fac9bf1f09e678c35e287a40a7b7dd category: bugfix bugzilla: 13690 CVE: CVE-2020-11565 ------------------------------------------------- Using an empty (malformed) nodelist that is not caught during mount option parsing leads to a stack-out-of-bounds access. The option string that was used was: "mpol=prefer:,". However, MPOL_PREFERRED requires a single node number, which is not being provided here. Add a check that 'nodes' is not empty after parsing for MPOL_PREFERRED's nodeid.
