Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
f2fs: fix to do sanity check on destination blkaddr during recovery<br />
<br />
As Wenqing Liu reported in bugzilla:<br />
<br />
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216456<br />
<br />
loop5: detected capacity change from 0 to 131072<br />
F2FS-fs (loop5): recover_inode: ino = 6, name = hln, inline = 1<br />
F2FS-fs (loop5): recover_data: ino = 6 (i_size: recover) err = 0<br />
F2FS-fs (loop5): recover_inode: ino = 6, name = hln, inline = 1<br />
F2FS-fs (loop5): recover_data: ino = 6 (i_size: recover) err = 0<br />
F2FS-fs (loop5): recover_inode: ino = 6, name = hln, inline = 1<br />
F2FS-fs (loop5): recover_data: ino = 6 (i_size: recover) err = 0<br />
F2FS-fs (loop5): Bitmap was wrongly set, blk:5634<br />

<br />
If we enable CONFIG_F2FS_CHECK_FS config, it will trigger a kernel panic<br />
instead of warning.<br />
<br />
The root cause is: in fuzzed image, SIT table is inconsistent with inode<br />
mapping table, result in triggering such warning during SIT table update.<br />
<br />
This patch introduces a new flag DATA_GENERIC_ENHANCE_UPDATE, w/ this<br />
flag, data block recovery flow can check destination blkaddr&#39;s validation<br />
in SIT table, and skip f2fs_replace_block() to avoid inconsistent status.
