CVE-2024-50217 Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix use-after-free of block device file in __btrfs_free_extra_devids()
Mounting btrfs from two images (which have the same one fsid and two
different dev_uuids) in certain executing order may trigger an UAF for
variable \'device->bdev_file\' in __btrfs_free_extra_devids(). And
following are the details:
1. Attach image_1 to loop0, attach image_2 to loop1, and scan btrfs
devices by ioctl(BTRFS_IOC_SCAN_DEV):
/ btrfs_device_1 → loop0
fs_device
\ btrfs_device_2 → loop1
2. mount /dev/loop0 /mnt
btrfs_open_devices
btrfs_device_1->bdev_file = btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb(loop0)
btrfs_device_2->bdev_file = btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb(loop1)
btrfs_fill_super
open_ctree
fail: btrfs_close_devices // -ENOMEM
btrfs_close_bdev(btrfs_device_1)
fput(btrfs_device_1->bdev_file)
// btrfs_device_1->bdev_file is freed
btrfs_close_bdev(btrfs_device_2)
fput(btrfs_device_2->bdev_file)
3. mount /dev/loop1 /mnt
btrfs_open_devices
btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb(&bdev_file)
// EIO, btrfs_device_1->bdev_file is not assigned,
// which points to a freed memory area
btrfs_device_2->bdev_file = btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb(loop1)
btrfs_fill_super
open_ctree
btrfs_free_extra_devids
if (btrfs_device_1->bdev_file)
fput(btrfs_device_1->bdev_file) // UAF !
Fix it by setting \'device->bdev_file\' as \'NULL\' after closing the
btrfs_device in btrfs_close_one_device().
