CVE-2024-39276

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix mb_cache_entry's e_refcnt leak in ext4_xattr_block_cache_find() Syzbot reports a warning as follows: ============================================ WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5075 at fs/mbcache.c:419 mb_cache_destroy+0x224/0x290 Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 5075 Comm: syz-executor199 Not tainted 6.9.0-rc6-gb947cc5bf6d7 RIP: 0010:mb_cache_destroy+0x224/0x290 fs/mbcache.c:419 Call Trace: <TASK> ext4_put_super+0x6d4/0xcd0 fs/ext4/super.c:1375 generic_shutdown_super+0x136/0x2d0 fs/super.c:641 kill_block_super+0x44/0x90 fs/super.c:1675 ext4_kill_sb+0x68/0xa0 fs/ext4/super.c:7327 [...] ============================================ This is because when finding an entry in ext4_xattr_block_cache_find(), if ext4_sb_bread() returns -ENOMEM, the ce's e_refcnt, which has already grown in the __entry_find(), won't be put away, and eventually trigger the above issue in mb_cache_destroy() due to reference count leakage. So call mb_cache_entry_put() on the -ENOMEM error branch as a quick fix.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: ext4: soluciona la fuga de e_refcnt de mb_cache_entry en ext4_xattr_block_cache_find() Syzbot informa una advertencia de la siguiente manera: ======================= ======================= ADVERTENCIA: CPU: 0 PID: 5075 en fs/mbcache.c:419 mb_cache_destroy+0x224/0x290 Módulos vinculados en: CPU: 0 PID: 5075 Comm: syz-executor199 No contaminado 6.9.0-rc6-gb947cc5bf6d7 RIP: 0010:mb_cache_destroy+0x224/0x290 fs/mbcache.c:419 Seguimiento de llamadas: ext4_put_super+0x6d4/0xcd0 fs/ext4/super .c:1375 generic_shutdown_super+0x136/0x2d0 fs/super.c:641 kill_block_super+0x44/0x90 fs/super.c:1675 ext4_kill_sb+0x68/0xa0 fs/ext4/super.c:7327 [...] === ========================================= Esto se debe a que al encontrar una entrada en ext4_xattr_block_cache_find (), si ext4_sb_bread() devuelve -ENOMEM, el e_refcnt del ce, que ya ha crecido en __entry_find(), no se guardará y, eventualmente, desencadenará el problema anterior en mb_cache_destroy() debido a una fuga del recuento de referencias. Entonces llame a mb_cache_entry_put() en la rama de error -ENOMEM como solución rápida.
