Message-ID: <2024073019-CVE-2024-42104-7aa4@gregkh> Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2024 09:47:22 +0200 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-cve-announce@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> Subject: CVE-2024-42104: nilfs2: add missing check for inode numbers on directory entries Description =========== In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nilfs2: add missing check for inode numbers on directory entries Syzbot reported that mounting and unmounting a specific pattern of corrupted nilfs2 filesystem images causes a use-after-free of metadata file inodes, which triggers a kernel bug in lru_add_fn(). As Jan Kara pointed out, this is because the link count of a metadata file gets corrupted to 0, and nilfs_evict_inode(), which is called from iput(), tries to delete that inode (ifile inode in this case). The inconsistency occurs because directories containing the inode numbers of these metadata files that should not be visible in the namespace are read without checking. Fix this issue by treating the inode numbers of these internal files as errors in the sanity check helper when reading directory folios/pages. Also thanks to Hillf Danton and Matthew Wilcox for their initial mm-layer analysis. The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-42104 to this issue. Affected and fixed versions =========================== Fixed in 4.19.318 with commit c33c2b0d92aa Fixed in 5.4.280 with commit 07c176e7acc5 Fixed in 5.10.222 with commit 2f2fa9cf7c35 Fixed in 5.15.163 with commit b11e8fb93ea5 Fixed in 6.1.98 with commit 1b7d549ed2c1 Fixed in 6.6.39 with commit 3ab40870edb8 Fixed in 6.9.9 with commit 265fff1a01cd Fixed in 6.10 with commit bb76c6c27468 Please see https://www.kernel.org for a full list of currently supported kernel versions by the kernel community. Unaffected versions might change over time as fixes are backported to older supported kernel versions. The official CVE entry at https://cve.org/CVERecord/?id=CVE-2024-42104 will be updated if fixes are backported, please check that for the most up to date information about this issue. Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: fs/nilfs2/dir.c fs/nilfs2/nilfs.h Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c33c2b0d92aa1c2262d999b2598ad6fbd53bd479 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/07c176e7acc5579c133bb923ab21316d192d0a95 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2f2fa9cf7c3537958a82fbe8c8595a5eb0861ad7 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b11e8fb93ea5eefb2e4e719497ea177a58ff6131 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1b7d549ed2c1fa202c751b69423a0d3a6bd5a180 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3ab40870edb883b9633dc5cd55f5a2a11afa618d https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/265fff1a01cdc083aeaf0d934c929db5cc64aebf https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bb76c6c274683c8570ad788f79d4b875bde0e458
