Описание

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: add i_data_sem protection in ext4_destroy_inline_data_nolock() Fix a race between inline data destruction and block mapping. The function ext4_destroy_inline_data_nolock() changes the inode data layout by clearing EXT4_INODE_INLINE_DATA and setting EXT4_INODE_EXTENTS. At the same time, another thread may execute ext4_map_blocks(), which tests EXT4_INODE_EXTENTS to decide whether to call ext4_ext_map_blocks() or ext4_ind_map_blocks(). Without i_data_sem protection, ext4_ind_map_blocks() may receive inode with EXT4_INODE_EXTENTS flag and triggering assert. kernel BUG at fs/ext4/indirect.c:546!

A flaw was discovered in the Linux kernel’s EXT4 filesystem implementation involving a race between inline data destruction and block mapping. In the function ext4_destroy_inline_data_nolock(), the inode layout is modified (clearing EXT4_INODE_INLINE_DATA and setting EXT4_INODE_EXTENTS) without holding the i_data_sem semaphore. Concurrently, another thread may execute ext4_map_blocks(), which tests the EXT4_INODE_EXTENTS flag to decide whether to call ext4_ext_map_blocks() or ext4_ind_map_blocks(). Without proper semaphore protection, ext4_ind_map_blocks() can be invoked with an inconsistent state, potentially triggering a kernel assertion and crash (BUG).
