Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nilfs2: fix hang in nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() Syzbot reported a hang issue in migrate_pages_batch() called by mbind() and nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() called in the log writer of nilfs2. While migrate_pages_batch() locks a folio and waits for the writeback to complete, the log writer thread that should bring the writeback to completion picks up the folio being written back in nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() that it calls for subsequent log creation and was trying to lock the folio. Thus causing a deadlock. In the first place, it is unexpected that folios/pages in the middle of writeback will be updated and become dirty. Nilfs2 adds a checksum to verify the validity of the log being written and uses it for recovery at mount, so data changes during writeback are suppressed. Since this is broken, an unclean shutdown could potentially cause recovery to fail. Investigation revealed that the root cause is that the wait for writeback completion in nilfs_page_mkwrite() is conditional, and if the backing device does not require stable writes, data may be modified without waiting. Fix these issues by making nilfs_page_mkwrite() wait for writeback to finish regardless of the stable write requirement of the backing device.

Since this is\\nbroken, an unclean shutdown could potentially cause recovery to fail.\\n\\nInvestigation revealed that the root cause is that the wait for writeback\\ncompletion in nilfs_page_mkwrite() is conditional, and if the backing\\ndevice does not require stable writes, data may be modified without\\nwaiting.\\n\\nFix these issues by making nilfs_page_mkwrite() wait for writeback to\\nfinish regardless of the stable write requirement of the backing device.\"},{\"lang\":\"es\",\"value\":\"En el kernel de Linux, se resolvi\u00f3 la siguiente vulnerabilidad: nilfs2: corrige un bloqueo en nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() Syzbot inform\u00f3 un problema de bloqueo en migrar_pages_batch() llamado por mbind() y nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() llamado en el escritor de registros de nilfs2. Mientras migrar_pages_batch() bloquea una publicaci\u00f3n y espera a que se complete la reescritura, el subproceso del escritor de registros que deber\u00eda completar la reescritura recoge la publicaci\u00f3n que se est\u00e1 reescribiendo en nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() que solicita la creaci\u00f3n de registros posteriores y estaba intentando bloquear la fol.

Dado que esto no funciona, un cierre incorrecto podr\u00eda provocar que falle la recuperaci\u00f3n. La investigaci\u00f3n revel\u00f3 que la causa principal es que la espera para que se complete la reescritura en nilfs_page_mkwrite() es condicional, y si el dispositivo de respaldo no requiere escrituras estables, los datos se pueden modificar sin esperar.
