Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ovl: fix UAF in ovl_do_mkdir() debug print
ovl_do_mkdir() prints the input dentry with %pd after vfs_mkdir().
Since commit fe497f0759e0 ("VFS: change vfs_mkdir() to unlock on
failure."), vfs_mkdir() calls end_creating() on the input dentry on
failure and may replace it on success, so the post-call %pd can
use-after-free the dentry when CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_DEBUG is enabled.
Print the dentry before the call and only the result afterward.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's OverlayFS subsystem. When debug logging is enabled, a directory creation operation can trigger a use-after-free condition by referencing a directory entry that has already been released by the virtual file system. A local user could exploit this flaw to crash the system, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS), or potentially corrupt kernel memory.
