In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: refresh inline data size before write operations
The cached ei->i_inline_size can become stale between the initial size check and when ext4_update_inline_data()/ext4_create_inline_data() use it. Although ext4_get_max_inline_size() reads the correct value at the time of the check, concurrent xattr operations can modify i_inline_size before ext4_write_lock_xattr() is acquired.
This causes ext4_update_inline_data() and ext4_create_inline_data() to work with stale capacity values, leading to a BUG_ON() crash in ext4_write_inline_data():
kernel BUG at fs/ext4/inline.c:1331! BUG_ON(pos + len > EXT4_I(inode)->i_inline_size);
The race window:
- ext4_get_max_inline_size() reads i_inline_size = 60 (correct)
- Size check passes for 50-byte write
- [Another thread adds xattr, i_inline_size changes to 40]
- ext4_write_lock_xattr() acquires lock
- ext4_update_inline_data() uses stale i_inline_size = 60
