Subject: CVE-2025-39885: ocfs2: fix recursive semaphore deadlock in fiemap call
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...nel.org>
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix recursive semaphore deadlock in fiemap call
syzbot detected a OCFS2 hang due to a recursive semaphore on a

ocfs2_fiemap() takes a read lock of the ip_alloc_sem semaphore (since
v2.6.22-527-g7307de80510a) and calls fiemap_fill_next_extent() to read the
extent list of this running mmap executable. The user supplied buffer to
hold the fiemap information page faults calling ocfs2_page_mkwrite() which
will take a write lock (since v2.6.27-38-g00dc417fa3e7) of the same
semaphore. This recursive semaphore will hold filesystem locks and causes
a hang of the fileystem.
The ip_alloc_sem protects the inode extent list and size. Release the
read semphore before calling fiemap_fill_next_extent() in ocfs2_fiemap()
and ocfs2_fiemap_inline(). This does an unnecessary semaphore lock/unlock
on the last extent but simplifies the error path.
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2025-39885 to this issue.

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:
