In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix transaction abort when snapshotting received subvolumes Currently a user can trigger a transaction abort by snapshotting a previously received snapshot a bunch of times until we reach a BTRFS_UUID_KEY_RECEIVED_SUBVOL item overflow (the maximum item size we can store in a leaf). This is very likely not common in practice, but if it happens, it turns the filesystem into RO mode. The snapshot, send and set_received_subvol and subvol_setflags (used by receive) don't require CAP_SYS_ADMIN, just inode_owner_or_capable(). A malicious user could use this to turn a filesystem into RO mode and disrupt a system. Reproducer script: $ cat test.sh #!/bin/bash DEV=/dev/sdi MNT=/mnt/sdi
Use smallest node size to make the test faster.
mkfs.btrfs -f --nodesize 4K $DEV mount $DEV $MNT
Create a subvolume and set it to RO so that it can be used for send.
btrfs subvolume create $MNT/sv touch $MNT/sv/foo btrfs property set $MNT/sv ro true
Send and receive the subvolume into snaps/sv.
mkdir $MNT/snaps btrfs send $MNT/sv | btrfs receive $MNT/snaps
Now snapshot the received subvolume, which has a received_uuid, a
lot of times to trigger the leaf overflow.
total=500
for ((i = 1; i <= $total; i++)); do
echo -ne "\rCreating snapshot $i/$total"
btrfs subvolume snapshot -r $MNT/snaps/sv $MNT/snaps/sv_$i > /dev/null
done
echo
umount $MNT
When running the test:
$ ./test.sh
(...)

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Btrfs filesystem. A malicious user can exploit this by repeatedly creating snapshots of a previously received subvolume. This action can lead to an item overflow, causing a transaction abort and forcing the filesystem into a read-only state. This results in a denial of service, disrupting system operations.
Отчет
Red Hat acknowledges the upstream Linux kernel correction for «btrfs» as described in COMMENT_ZERO. Fixes are delivered through standard kernel errata for supported products. Operational exposure depends on whether this subsystem or driver is active in your configuration.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, prevent the btrfs module from being loaded. See https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for instructions.
