CVE-2024-35844
May 17, 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: compress: fix reserve_cblocks counting error when out of space
When a file only needs one direct_node, performing the following
operations will cause the file to be unrepairable:
unisoc # ./f2fs_io compress test.apk
unisoc #df -h | grep dm-48
/dev/block/dm-48 112G 112G 1.2M 100% /data
unisoc # ./f2fs_io release_cblocks test.apk
924
unisoc # df -h | grep dm-48
/dev/block/dm-48 112G 112G 4.8M 100% /data
unisoc # dd if=/dev/random of=file4 bs=1M count=3
3145728 bytes (3.0 M) copied, 0.025 s, 120 M/s
unisoc # df -h | grep dm-48
/dev/block/dm-48 112G 112G 1.8M 100% /data
unisoc # ./f2fs_io reserve_cblocks test.apk
F2FS_IOC_RESERVE_COMPRESS_BLOCKS failed: No space left on device
adb reboot
unisoc # df -h | grep dm-48
/dev/block/dm-48 112G 112G 11M 100% /data
unisoc # ./f2fs_io reserve_cblocks test.apk
0
This is because the file has only one direct_node. After returning
to -ENOSPC, reserved_blocks += ret will not be executed. As a result,
the reserved_blocks at this time is still 0, which is not the real
number of reserved blocks. Therefore, fsck cannot be set to repair
the file.
After this patch, the fsck flag will be set to fix this problem.
unisoc # df -h | grep dm-48
/dev/block/dm-48 112G 112G 1.8M 100% /data
unisoc # ./f2fs_io reserve_cblocks test.apk
F2FS_IOC_RESERVE_COMPRESS_BLOCKS failed: No space left on device
adb reboot then fsck will be executed
unisoc # df -h | grep dm-48
/dev/block/dm-48 112G 112G 11M 100% /data
unisoc # ./f2fs_io reserve_cblocks test.apk
