CVE-2022-50009 Information

Description

In the Linux kernel the following vulnerability has been resolved:

f2fs: fix null-ptr-deref in f2fs_get_dnode_of_data

There is issue as follows when test f2fs atomic write: F2FS-fs (loop0): Can’t find valid F2FS filesystem in 2th superblock F2FS-fs (loop0): invalid crc_offset: 0 F2FS-fs (loop0): f2fs_check_nid_range: out-of-range nid=1 run fsck to fix. F2FS-fs (loop0): f2fs_check_nid_range: out-of-range nid=2 run fsck to fix.

As 3db1de0e582c commit changed atomic write way which new a cow_inode for atomic write file and also mark cow_inode as FI_ATOMIC_FILE. When f2fs_do_write_data_page write cow_inode will use cow_inode’s cow_inode which is NULL. Then will trigger null-ptr-deref. To solve above issue introduce FI_COW_FILE flag for COW inode.

Fiexes: 3db1de0e582c(2fs: change the current atomic write way)
