CVE-2024-42315

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: exfat: fix potential deadlock on __exfat_get_dentry_set When accessing a file with more entries than ES_MAX_ENTRY_NUM, the bh-array is allocated in __exfat_get_entry_set. The problem is that the bh-array is allocated with GFP_KERNEL. It does not make sense. In the following cases, a deadlock for sbi->s_lock between the two processes may occur. CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- kswapd balance_pgdat lock(fs_reclaim) exfat_iterate lock(&sbi->s_lock) exfat_readdir exfat_get_uniname_from_ext_entry exfat_get_dentry_set __exfat_get_dentry_set kmalloc_array ... lock(fs_reclaim) ... evict exfat_evict_inode lock(&sbi->s_lock) To fix this, let's allocate bh-array with GFP_NOFS.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: exfat: corrige un posible punto muerto en __exfat_get_dentry_set Al acceder a un archivo con más entradas que ES_MAX_ENTRY_NUM, la matriz bh se asigna en __exfat_get_entry_set. El problema es que el bh-array está asignado con GFP_KERNEL. No tiene sentido. En los siguientes casos, puede ocurrir un punto muerto para sbi->s_lock entre los dos procesos. CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- kswapd balance_pgdat lock(fs_reclaim) exfat_iterate lock(&sbi->s_lock) exfat_readdir exfat_get_uniname_from_ext_entry exfat_get_dentry_set __exfat_get_dentry_set kmalloc_array ... lock(fs_reclaim) ... desalojar exfat_evict_inode lock(&sbi->s_lock) para arreglar esto, asignemos bh-array con GFP_NOFS.
