🛡️ CVE-2024-56565 on Ubuntu — linux
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix to drop all discards after creating snapshot on lvm device Piergiorgio reported a bug in bugzilla as below: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 969 at fs/f2fs/segment.c:1330 RIP: 0010:__submit_discard_cmd+0x27d/0x400 [f2fs] Call Trace: __issue_discard_cmd+0x1ca/0x350 [f2fs] issue_discard_thread+0x191/0x480 [f2fs] kthread+0xcf/0x100 ret_from_fork+0x31/0x50 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 w/ below testcase, it can reproduce this bug quickly: - pvcreate /dev/vdb - vgcreate myvg1 /dev/vdb - lvcreate -L 1024m -n mylv1 myvg1 - mount /dev/myvg1/mylv1 /mnt/f2fs - dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/f2fs/file bs=1M count=20 - sync - rm /mnt/f2fs/file - sync - lvcreate -L 1024m -s -n mylv1-snapshot /dev/myvg1/mylv1 - umount /mnt/f2fs The root cause is: it will update discard_max_bytes of mounted lvm device to zero after creating snapshot on this lvm device, then, __submit_discard_cmd() will pass parameter @nr_sects w/ zero value to __blkdev_issue_discard(), it returns a NULL bio pointer, result in panic. This patch changes as below for fixing: 1. Let's drop all remained discards in f2fs_unfreeze() if snapshot of lvm device is created. 2. Checking discard_max_bytes before submitting discard during __submit_discard_cmd().
Distribution advisory
This page covers CVE-2024-56565 as tracked by Ubuntu, for the package linux. The fix is available in version 6.8.0-58.60; earlier versions remain affected.
How this vulnerability can be exploited
This issue can be reached with local access to the system, attack complexity is low, an attacker needs low-level privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality none, integrity none, availability high.
CVSS metrics in full
The score comes from this vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
- Attack vector: Local — a local account, shell or session on the host is needed.
- Attack complexity: Low — the attack works reliably, with no preparation.
- Privileges required: Low — an ordinary user account is enough.
- User interaction: None — nobody has to be tricked into anything.
- Scope: Unchanged — the damage stays inside the vulnerable component.
- Confidentiality impact: None.
- Integrity impact: None.
- Availability impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
