| Subject: CVE-2021-47637: ubifs: Fix deadlock in concurrent rename whiteout and inode writeback |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| ubifs: Fix deadlock in concurrent rename whiteout and inode writeback |
| |
| Following hung tasks: |
| [ 77.028764] task:kworker/u8:4 state:D stack: 0 pid: 132 |
| [ 77.028820] Call Trace: |

| |
| , are caused by concurrent rename whiteout and inode writeback processes: |
| rename_whiteout(Thread 1) wb_workfn(Thread2) |
| ubifs_rename |
| do_rename |
| lock_4_inodes (Hold ui_mutex) |
| ubifs_budget_space |
| make_free_space |
| shrink_liability |
| __writeback_inodes_sb_nr |
| bdi_split_work_to_wbs (Queue new wb work) |
| wb_do_writeback(wb work) |
| __writeback_single_inode |
| ubifs_write_inode |
| LOCK(ui_mutex) |
| ↑ |
| wb_wait_for_completion (Wait wb work) <-- deadlock! |
| |
| Reproducer (Detail program in [Link]): |
| 1. SYS_renameat2("/mp/dir/file", "/mp/dir/whiteout", RENAME_WHITEOUT) |
| 2. Consume out of space before kernel(mdelay) doing budget for whiteout |
| |
| Fix it by doing whiteout space budget before locking ubifs inodes. |
| BTW, it also fixes wrong goto tag 'out_release' in whiteout budget |
| error handling path(It should at least recover dir i_size and unlock |
| 4 ubifs inodes). |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2021-47637 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
