Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix to do sanity check on direct node in truncate_dnode() syzbot reports below bug: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in f2fs_truncate_data_blocks_range+0x122a/0x14c0 fs/f2fs/file.c:574 Read of size 4 at addr ffff88802a25c000 by task syz-executor148/5000 CPU: 1 PID: 5000 Comm: syz-executor148 Not tainted 6.4.0-rc7-syzkaller-00041-ge660abd551f1 #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 05/27/2023 Call Trace: <TASK> __dump_stack lib/dump_stack.c:88 [inline] dump_stack_lvl+0xd9/0x150 lib/dump_stack.c:106 print_address_description.constprop.0+0x2c/0x3c0 mm/kasan/report.c:351 print_report mm/kasan/report.c:462 [inline] kasan_report+0x11c/0x130 mm/kasan/report.c:572 f2fs_truncate_data_blocks_range+0x122a/0x14c0 fs/f2fs/file.c:574 truncate_dnode+0x229/0x2e0 fs/f2fs/node.c:944 f2fs_truncate_inode_blocks+0x64b/0xde0 fs/f2fs/node.c:1154 f2fs_do_truncate_blocks+0x4ac/0xf30 fs/f2fs/file.c:721 f2fs_truncate_blocks+0x7b/0x300 fs/f2fs/file.c:749 f2fs_truncate.part.0+0x4a5/0x630 fs/f2fs/file.c:799 f2fs_truncate include/linux/fs.h:825 [inline] f2fs_setattr+0x1738/0x2090 fs/f2fs/file.c:1006 notify_change+0xb2c/0x1180 fs/attr.c:483 do_truncate+0x143/0x200 fs/open.c:66 handle_truncate fs/namei.c:3295 [inline] do_open fs/namei.c:3640 [inline] path_openat+0x2083/0x2750 fs/namei.c:3791 do_filp_open+0x1ba/0x410 fs/namei.c:3818 do_sys_openat2+0x16d/0x4c0 fs/open.c:1356 do_sys_open fs/open.c:1372 [inline] __do_sys_creat fs/open.c:1448 [inline] __se_sys_creat fs/open.c:1442 [inline] __x64_sys_creat+0xcd/0x120 fs/open.c:1442 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x39/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd The root cause is, inodeA references inodeB via inodeB's ino, once inodeA is truncated, it calls truncate_dnode() to truncate data blocks in inodeB's node page, it traverse mapping data from node->i.i_addr[0] to node->i.i_addr[ADDRS_PER_BLOCK() - 1], result in out-of-boundary access. This patch fixes to add sanity check on dnode page in truncate_dnode(), so that, it can help to avoid triggering such issue, and once it encounters such issue, it will record newly introduced ERROR_INVALID_NODE_REFERENCE error into superblock, later fsck can detect such issue and try repairing. Also, it removes f2fs_truncate_data_blocks() for cleanup due to the function has only one caller, and uses f2fs_truncate_data_blocks_range() instead.
