libceph: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in osdmap_decode()

CVE-2026-52958

Description

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).
