      <title>CVE-2026-43188 — ceph: do not propagate page array emplacement errors as batch errors</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-43188</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ceph: do not propagate page array emplacement errors as batch errors&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When fscrypt is enabled, move_dirty_folio_in_page_array() may fail
because it needs to allocate bounce buffers to store the encrypted
versions of each folio. Each folio beyond the first allocates its bounce
buffer with GFP_NOWAIT. Failures are common (and expected) under this
allocation mode; they should flush (not abort) the batch.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, ceph_process_folio_batch() uses the same `rc` variable for its
own return code and for capturing the return codes of its routine calls;
failing to reset `rc` back to 0 results in the error being propagated
out to the main writeback loop, which cannot actually tolerate any
errors here: once `ceph_wbc.pages` is allocated, it must be passed to
ceph_submit_write() to be freed. If it survives until the next iteration
(e.g. due to the goto being followed), ceph_allocate_page_array()&amp;#39;s
BUG_ON() will oops the worker.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Note that this failure mode is currently masked due to another bug
(addressed next in this series) that prevents multiple encrypted folios
from being selected for the same write.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For now, just reset `rc` when redirtying the folio to prevent errors in
move_dirty_folio_in_page_array() from propagating. Note that
move_dirty_folio_in_page_array() is careful never to return errors on
the first folio, so there is no need to check for that. After this
change, ceph_process_folio_batch() no longer retu…&lt;/p&gt;</description>
