Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.6.32.4 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: handle inconsistent state in nilfs_btnode_create_block()
Syzbot reported that a buffer state inconsistency was detected in
nilfs_btnode_create_block(), triggering a kernel bug.
It is not appropriate to treat this inconsistency as a bug; it can occur
if the argument block address (the buffer index of the newly created
block) is a virtual block number and has been reallocated due to
corruption of the bitmap used to manage its allocation state.
So, modify nilfs_btnode_create_block() and its callers to treat it as a
possible filesystem error, rather than triggering a kernel bug.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix to don't dirty inode for readonly filesystem
syzbot reports f2fs bug as below:

The root cause is:

- f2fs_lookup
- __f2fs_find_entry
- f2fs_i_depth_write
- f2fs_mark_inode_dirty_sync
- f2fs_dirty_inode
- set_inode_flag(inode, FI_DIRTY_INODE)
- umount
- kill_f2fs_super
- kill_block_super
- generic_shutdown_super
- sync_filesystem
: sb is readonly, skip sync_filesystem()
- evict_inodes
- iput
- f2fs_evict_inode
- f2fs_bug_on(sbi, is_inode_flag_set(inode, FI_DIRTY_INODE))
: trigger kernel panic
When we try to repair i_current_depth in readonly filesystem, let's
skip dirty inode to avoid panic in later f2fs_evict_inode().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dev/parport: fix the array out-of-bounds risk
Fixed array out-of-bounds issues caused by sprintf
by replacing it with snprintf for safer data copying,
ensuring the destination buffer is not overflowed.
Below is the stack trace I encountered during the actual issue:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: check dot and dotdot of dx_root before making dir indexed
Syzbot reports a issue as follows:
============================================
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffed11022e24fe
PGD 23ffee067 P4D 23ffee067 PUD 0
Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI
CPU: 0 PID: 5079 Comm: syz-executor306 Not tainted 6.10.0-rc5-g55027e689933 #0
Call Trace:
<TASK>

ext4_add_entry+0x222a/0x25d0 fs/ext4/namei.c:2451
ext4_rename fs/ext4/namei.c:3936 [inline]
ext4_rename2+0x26e5/0x4370 fs/ext4/namei.c:4214
[...]
============================================
The immediate cause of this problem is that there is only one valid dentry
for the block to be split during do_split, so split==0 results in out of
bounds accesses to the map triggering the issue.
do_split
unsigned split
dx_make_map
count = 1
split = count/2 = 0;
continued = hash2 == map[split - 1].hash;
---> map[4294967295]
The maximum length of a filename is 255 and the minimum block size is 1024,
so it is always guaranteed that the number of entries is greater than or
equal to 2 when do_split() is called.
But syzbot's crafted image has no dot and dotdot in dir, and the dentry
distribution in dirblock is as follows:
bus dentry1 hole dentry2 free
|xx--|xx-------------|...............|xx-------------|...............|
0 12 (8+248)=256 268 256 524 (8+256)=264 788 236 1024
So when renaming dentry1 increases its name_len length by 1, neither hole
nor free is sufficient to hold the new dentry, and make_indexed_dir() is
called.
In make_indexed_dir() it is assumed that the first two entries of the
dirblock must be dot and dotdot, so bus and dentry1 are left in dx_root
because they are treated as dot and dotdot, and only dentry2 is moved
to the new leaf block. That's why count is equal to 1.
Therefore add the ext4_check_dx_root() helper function to add more sanity
checks to dot and dotdot before starting the conversion to avoid the above
issue.

During vport delete, it is observed that during unload we hit a crash

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
protect the fetch of ->fd[fd] in do_dup2() from mispredictions
both callers have verified that fd is not greater than ->max_fds;
however, misprediction might end up with
tofree = fdt->fd[fd];
being speculatively executed. That's wrong for the same reasons
why it's wrong in close_fd()/file_close_fd_locked(); the same
solution applies - array_index_nospec(fd, fdt->max_fds) could differ
from fd only in case of speculative execution on mispredicted path.
