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

ceph: reject export_targets ranks >= CEPH_MAX_MDS in mdsmap decode

MDSMap export_targets entries are monitor controlled. check_new_map()
uses each entry as a bit number in a fixed stack bitmap, so a rank
outside the protocol namespace can make set_bit() write past the end of
the array.

Reject ranks outside CEPH_MAX_MDS while decoding the map. Do not
validate against possible_max_rank here because maps may legitimately
reference ranks beyond a temporarily reduced max_mds.
