--- Comment #1 from Mark Johnston <markj@FreeBSD.org> ---
The attribute name length is checked by callers of the VOP, or is not
user-controlled to begin with.  Callers of extattr_set_vp(), for example, w=
ill
provide a string of length at most EXTATTR_MAXNAMELEN =3D=3D NAME_MAX.  We =
should
perhaps assert this limit in ffs_setextattr().

ip->i_ea_len is not directly user-controlled, it is the size of the extattrs
for the inode represented by ip.  The space reserved for extattrs is limite=
d to
two blocks and ffs_setextattr() checks this.

I may well be missing something - do you have a test case to demonstrate the
problem?
