Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
exfat: validate cluster allocation bits of the allocation bitmap<br />
<br />
syzbot created an exfat image with cluster bits not set for the allocation<br />
bitmap. exfat-fs reads and uses the allocation bitmap without checking<br />
this. The problem is that if the start cluster of the allocation bitmap<br />
is 6, cluster 6 can be allocated when creating a directory with mkdir.<br />
exfat zeros out this cluster in exfat_mkdir, which can delete existing<br />
entries. This can reallocate the allocated entries. In addition,<br />
the allocation bitmap is also zeroed out, so cluster 6 can be reallocated.<br />
This patch adds exfat_test_bitmap_range to validate that clusters used for<br />
the allocation bitmap are correctly marked as in-use.
