CVE-2023-52582
Disclosure Date: March 02, 2024 (last updated March 03, 2024)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfs: Only call folio_start_fscache() one time for each folio
If a network filesystem using netfs implements a clamp_length()
function, it can set subrequest lengths smaller than a page size.
When we loop through the folios in netfs_rreq_unlock_folios() to
set any folios to be written back, we need to make sure we only
call folio_start_fscache() once for each folio.
Otherwise, this simple testcase:
mount -o fsc,rsize=1024,wsize=1024 127.0.0.1:/export /mnt/nfs
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/nfs/file.bin bs=4096 count=1
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
4096 bytes (4.1 kB, 4.0 KiB) copied, 0.0126359 s, 324 kB/s
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
cat /mnt/nfs/file.bin > /dev/null
will trigger an oops similar to the following:
page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO(folio_test_private_2(folio))
