Subject: CVE-2022-49068: btrfs: release correct delalloc amount in direct IO write path
Date: Wed, 26 Feb 2025 02:54:33 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <2025022654-CVE-2022-49068-aa1b@gregkh> (raw)
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: release correct delalloc amount in direct IO write path
Running generic/406 causes the following WARNING in btrfs_destroy_inode()
which tells there are outstanding extents left.
In btrfs_get_blocks_direct_write(), we reserve a temporary outstanding
extents with btrfs_delalloc_reserve_metadata() (or indirectly from
btrfs_delalloc_reserve_space(()). We then release the outstanding extents
with btrfs_delalloc_release_extents(). However, the "len" can be modified
in the COW case, which releases fewer outstanding extents than expected.
Fix it by calling btrfs_delalloc_release_extents() for the original length.
To reproduce the warning, the filesystem should be 1 GiB. It's
triggering a short-write, due to not being able to allocate a large
extent and instead allocating a smaller one.

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:
