Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
ext4: avoid allocating blocks from corrupted group in ext4_mb_try_best_found()<br />
<br />
Determine if the group block bitmap is corrupted before using ac_b_ex in<br />
ext4_mb_try_best_found() to avoid allocating blocks from a group with a<br />
corrupted block bitmap in the following concurrency and making the<br />
situation worse.<br />
<br />
ext4_mb_regular_allocator<br />
ext4_lock_group(sb, group)<br />
ext4_mb_good_group<br />
// check if the group bbitmap is corrupted<br />
ext4_mb_complex_scan_group<br />
// Scan group gets ac_b_ex but doesn&#39;t use it<br />
ext4_unlock_group(sb, group)<br />
ext4_mark_group_bitmap_corrupted(group)<br />
// The block bitmap was corrupted during<br />
// the group unlock gap.<br />
ext4_mb_try_best_found<br />
ext4_lock_group(ac->ac_sb, group)<br />
ext4_mb_use_best_found<br />
mb_mark_used<br />
// Allocating blocks in block bitmap corrupted group
