In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix slab-out-of-bounds in ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists() We can trigger a slab-out-of-bounds with the following commands: mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/$disk 10G mount /dev/$disk /tmp/test echo 2147483647 > /sys/fs/ext4/$disk/mb_group_prealloc echo test > /tmp/test/file && sync
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists+0x8a/0x200 [ext4] Read of size 8 at addr ffff888121b9d0f0 by task kworker/u2:0/11 CPU: 0 PID: 11 Comm: kworker/u2:0 Tainted: GL 6.7.0-next-20240118 #521 Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x2c/0x50 kasan_report+0xb6/0xf0 ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists+0x8a/0x200 [ext4] ext4_mb_regular_allocator+0x19e9/0x2370 [ext4] ext4_mb_new_blocks+0x88a/0x1370 [ext4] ext4_ext_map_blocks+0x14f7/0x2390 [ext4] ext4_map_blocks+0x569/0xea0 [ext4] ext4_do_writepages+0x10f6/0x1bc0 [ext4] [...]
The flow of issue triggering is as follows:
// Set s_mb_group_prealloc to 2147483647 via sysfs
ext4_mb_new_blocks
ext4_mb_normalize_request
ext4_mb_normalize_group_request
ac->ac_g_ex.fe_len = EXT4_SB(sb)->s_mb_group_prealloc
ext4_mb_regular_allocator
ext4_mb_choose_next_group
ext4_mb_choose_next_group_best_avail
mb_avg_fragment_size_order
order = fls(len) - 2 = 29
ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists
frag_list = &sbi->s_mb_avg_fragment_size[order]
if (list_empty(frag_list)) // Trigger SOOB!
At 4k block size, the length of the s_mb_avg_fragment_size list is 14,
but an oversized s_mb_group_prealloc is set, causing slab-out-of-bounds
to be triggered by an attempt to access an element at index 29.
Add a new attr_id attr_clusters_in_group with values in the range
[0, sbi->s_clusters_per_group] and declare mb_group_prealloc as
that type to fix the issue. In addition avoid returning an order
from mb_avg_fragment_size_order() greater than MB_NUM_ORDERS(sb)
and reduce some useless loops.
A slab-out-of-bounds vulnerability was found in the ext4 filesystem of the Linux kernel. This issue occurs when an excessively large value is set for s_mb_group_prealloc, leading to out-of-bounds reads in the ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists() function. This issue can be triggered by setting a high preallocation value, causing the kernel to access invalid memory locations, which can result in crashes or undefined behavior.
Отчет
Red Hat Enterprise Linux is not vulnerable to this CVE, as it does not affect the versions or configurations of the Linux kernel used in its distributions.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
