      <title>CVE-2024-43859 — f2fs: fix to truncate preallocated blocks in f2fs_file_open()</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2024-43859</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;f2fs: fix to truncate preallocated blocks in f2fs_file_open()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;chenyuwen reports a f2fs bug as below:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000011
 fscrypt_set_bio_crypt_ctx+0x78/0x1e8
 f2fs_grab_read_bio+0x78/0x208
 f2fs_submit_page_read+0x44/0x154
 f2fs_get_read_data_page+0x288/0x5f4
 f2fs_get_lock_data_page+0x60/0x190
 truncate_partial_data_page+0x108/0x4fc
 f2fs_do_truncate_blocks+0x344/0x5f0
 f2fs_truncate_blocks+0x6c/0x134
 f2fs_truncate+0xd8/0x200
 f2fs_iget+0x20c/0x5ac
 do_garbage_collect+0x5d0/0xf6c
 f2fs_gc+0x22c/0x6a4
 f2fs_disable_checkpoint+0xc8/0x310
 f2fs_fill_super+0x14bc/0x1764
 mount_bdev+0x1b4/0x21c
 f2fs_mount+0x20/0x30
 legacy_get_tree+0x50/0xbc
 vfs_get_tree+0x5c/0x1b0
 do_new_mount+0x298/0x4cc
 path_mount+0x33c/0x5fc
 __arm64_sys_mount+0xcc/0x15c
 invoke_syscall+0x60/0x150
 el0_svc_common+0xb8/0xf8
 do_el0_svc+0x28/0xa0
 el0_svc+0x24/0x84
 el0t_64_sync_handler+0x88/0xec&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is because inode.i_crypt_info is not initialized during below path:
- mount
 - f2fs_fill_super
  - f2fs_disable_checkpoint
   - f2fs_gc
    - f2fs_iget
     - f2fs_truncate&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, let&amp;#39;s relocate truncation of preallocated blocks to f2fs_file_open(),
after fscrypt_file_open().&lt;/p&gt;</description>
