Disclosure Date: June 24, 2024
Add MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques that apply to this CVE.

Description

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

f2fs: compress: don’t allow unaligned truncation on released compress inode

f2fs image may be corrupted after below testcase:

  • mkfs.f2fs -O extra_attr,compression -f /dev/vdb
  • mount /dev/vdb /mnt/f2fs
  • touch /mnt/f2fs/file
  • f2fs_io setflags compression /mnt/f2fs/file
  • dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/f2fs/file bs=4k count=4
  • f2fs_io release_cblocks /mnt/f2fs/file
  • truncate -s 8192 /mnt/f2fs/file
  • umount /mnt/f2fs
  • fsck.f2fs /dev/vdb

ASSERT —> ino: 0x5 has i_blocks: 0x00000002, but has 0x3 blocks
[FSCK] valid_block_count matching with CP [Fail] [0x4, 0x5]
[FSCK] other corrupted bugs [Fail]

The reason is: partial truncation assume compressed inode has reserved
blocks, after partial truncation, valid block count may change w/o
.i_blocks and .total_valid_block_count update, result in corruption.

This patch only allow cluster size aligned truncation on released
compress inode for fixing.
