CVE-2024-26956
Disclosure Date: May 01, 2024 (last updated May 01, 2024)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix failure to detect DAT corruption in btree and direct mappings
Patch series "nilfs2: fix kernel bug at submit_bh_wbc()".
This resolves a kernel BUG reported by syzbot. Since there are two
flaws involved, I've made each one a separate patch.
The first patch alone resolves the syzbot-reported bug, but I think
both fixes should be sent to stable, so I've tagged them as such.
This patch (of 2):
Syzbot has reported a kernel bug in submit_bh_wbc() when writing file data
to a nilfs2 file system whose metadata is corrupted.
There are two flaws involved in this issue.
The first flaw is that when nilfs_get_block() locates a data block using
btree or direct mapping, if the disk address translation routine
nilfs_dat_translate() fails with internal code -ENOENT due to DAT metadata
corruption, it can be passed back to nilfs_get_block(). This causes
nilfs_get_block() to misidentify an existing block as non-exis…
