CVE-2026-98636

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

squashfs: Add dictionary size range check to prevent shift-out-of-bounds

When an abnormal SquashFS image (COMP_OPTS flag is 1 but dictionary size
is 0) is mounted, and performs shift operations using dictionarysize, the
shift exponent is -1, causing a shift-out-of-bounds.

Detail as below:
squashfs_comp_opts(msblk, buffer, length)
  squashfs_xz_comp_opts()
    if (comp_opts)
      n = ffs(opts->dict_size) - 1;<----opts->dict_size=0, n=-1
      if (opts->dict_size != (1 << n) && opts->dict_size !=
	  	(1 << n) + (1 << (n + 1))) <----shift-out-of-bounds

Fix it by adding a dictionary size range check before the shift operation.
