Descripción

*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> btrfs: fix btrfs_ioctl_space_info() slot_count TOCTOU which can lead to info-leak<br /> <br /> btrfs_ioctl_space_info() has a TOCTOU race between two passes over the<br /> block group RAID type lists. The first pass counts entries to determine<br /> the allocation size, then the second pass fills the buffer. The<br /> groups_sem rwlock is released between passes, allowing concurrent block<br /> group removal to reduce the entry count.<br /> <br /> When the second pass fills fewer entries than the first pass counted,<br /> copy_to_user() copies the full alloc_size bytes including trailing<br /> uninitialized kmalloc bytes to userspace.<br /> <br /> Fix by copying only total_spaces entries (the actually-filled count from<br /> the second pass) instead of alloc_size bytes, and switch to kzalloc so<br /> any future copy size mismatch cannot leak heap data.
