Subject: [f2fs-dev] [PATCH] f2fs: fix UAF issue in f2fs_merge_page_bio()
Date: Sun, 28 Sep 2025 18:24:22 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250928102422.300429-1-chao@kernel.org> (raw)

As JY reported in bugzilla [1],

The panic was caused by UAF issue w/ below race condition:

kworker
- writepages
 - f2fs_write_cache_pages
  - f2fs_write_single_data_page
   - f2fs_do_write_data_page
    - f2fs_inplace_write_data
     - f2fs_merge_page_bio
      - add_inu_page
      : cache page #1 into bio & cache bio in
        io->bio_list
  - f2fs_write_single_data_page
   - f2fs_do_write_data_page
    - f2fs_inplace_write_data
     - f2fs_merge_page_bio
      - add_inu_page
      : cache page #2 into bio which is linked
        in io->bio_list
						write
						- f2fs_write_begin
						: write page #1
						 - f2fs_folio_wait_writeback
						  - f2fs_submit_merged_ipu_write
						   - f2fs_submit_write_bio
						   : submit bio which inclues page #1 and #2

						software IRQ
						- f2fs_write_end_io
						 - fscrypt_free_bounce_page
						 : freed bounced page which belongs to page #2
      - inc_page_count( , WB_DATA_TYPE(data_folio), false)
      : data_folio points to fio->encrypted_page
        the bounced page can be freed before
        accessing it in f2fs_is_cp_guarantee()

It can reproduce w/ below testcase:
Run below script in shell #1:
for ((i=1;i>0;i++)) do xfs_io -f /mnt/f2fs/enc/file \
-c "pwrite 0 32k" -c "fdatasync"

Run below script in shell #2:
for ((i=1;i>0;i++)) do xfs_io -f /mnt/f2fs/enc/file \
-c "pwrite 0 32k" -c "fdatasync"

So, in f2fs_merge_page_bio(), let's avoid using fio->encrypted_page after
commit page into internal ipu cache.
