| Subject: CVE-2023-52900: nilfs2: fix general protection fault in nilfs_btree_insert() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| nilfs2: fix general protection fault in nilfs_btree_insert() |
| |
| If nilfs2 reads a corrupted disk image and tries to reads a b-tree node |
| block by calling __nilfs_btree_get_block() against an invalid virtual |
| block address, it returns -ENOENT because conversion of the virtual block |
| address to a disk block address fails. However, this return value is the |
| same as the internal code that b-tree lookup routines return to indicate |
| that the block being searched does not exist, so functions that operate on |
| that b-tree may misbehave. |
| |
| When nilfs_btree_insert() receives this spurious 'not found' code from |
| nilfs_btree_do_lookup(), it misunderstands that the 'not found' check was |
| successful and continues the insert operation using incomplete lookup path |
| data, causing the following crash: |
| |
| general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address |

| |
| This patch fixes the root cause of this problem by replacing the error |
| code that __nilfs_btree_get_block() returns on block address conversion |
| failure from -ENOENT to another internal code -EINVAL which means that the |
| b-tree metadata is corrupted. |
| |
| By returning -EINVAL, it propagates without glitches, and for all relevant |
| b-tree operations, functions in the upper bmap layer output an error |
| message indicating corrupted b-tree metadata via |
| nilfs_bmap_convert_error(), and code -EIO will be eventually returned as |
| it should be. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2023-52900 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: |
