Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: avoid UAF on sc->tempip in xrep_tempfile_create
LOLLM noticed a potential UAF if the tempfile creation code fails after
it set sc->tempip. Fix that.
A flaw was found in the xfs filesystem component of the Linux kernel. This vulnerability is a Use-After-Free (UAF) issue, which means that the system attempts to use memory after it has been freed, potentially leading to unpredictable behavior. This specific UAF occurs during the creation of temporary files if an error occurs after a memory address has been assigned. An attacker could potentially exploit this flaw to cause a system crash (Denial of Service) or, in more severe scenarios, execute unauthorized code.
Отчет
A potential use-after-free exists in the XFS online repair temporary file creation path because sc tempip can keep referencing a temporary inode after xchk_irele releases it on an error path. If later cleanup or repair logic uses sc tempip again, the kernel may dereference a stale inode pointer and crash, with a worst case possibility of memory corruption depending on object lifetime and reuse.The direct online repair invocation normally requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN.
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.
