In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: avoid using multiple devices with different type
For multiple devices, both primary and extra devices should be the
same type. erofs_init_device has already guaranteed that if the
primary is a file-backed device, extra devices should also be
regular files.
However, if the primary is a block device while the extra device
is a file-backed device, erofs_init_device will get an ENOTBLK,
which is not treated as an error in erofs_fc_get_tree, and that
leads to an UAF:
erofs_fc_get_tree
get_tree_bdev_flags(erofs_fc_fill_super)
erofs_read_superblock
erofs_init_device // sbi->dif0 is not inited yet,
// return -ENOTBLK
deactivate_locked_super
free(sbi)
if (err is -ENOTBLK)
sbi->dif0.file = filp_open() // sbi UAF
So if -ENOTBLK is hitted in erofs_init_device, it means the
primary device must be a block device, and the extra device
is not a block device. The error can be converted to -EINVAL.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's erofs filesystem. A local attacker could exploit a use-after-free (UAF) vulnerability by mounting an erofs filesystem with a specific configuration where the primary and extra devices have mismatched types. This improper handling of device initialization errors could lead to a system crash (denial of service) or potentially allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code, thereby gaining full control over the affected system.
