Title
f2fs: fix to avoid out-of-boundary access in dnode page
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix to avoid out-of-boundary access in dnode page As Jiaming Zhang reported: <TASK> __dump_stack lib/dump_stack.c:94 [inline] dump_stack_lvl+0x1c1/0x2a0 lib/dump_stack.c:120 print_address_description mm/kasan/report.c:378 [inline] print_report+0x17e/0x800 mm/kasan/report.c:480 kasan_report+0x147/0x180 mm/kasan/report.c:593 data_blkaddr fs/f2fs/f2fs.h:3053 [inline] f2fs_data_blkaddr fs/f2fs/f2fs.h:3058 [inline] f2fs_get_dnode_of_data+0x1a09/0x1c40 fs/f2fs/node.c:855 f2fs_reserve_block+0x53/0x310 fs/f2fs/data.c:1195 prepare_write_begin fs/f2fs/data.c:3395 [inline] f2fs_write_begin+0xf39/0x2190 fs/f2fs/data.c:3594 generic_perform_write+0x2c7/0x910 mm/filemap.c:4112 f2fs_buffered_write_iter fs/f2fs/file.c:4988 [inline] f2fs_file_write_iter+0x1ec8/0x2410 fs/f2fs/file.c:5216 new_sync_write fs/read_write.c:593 [inline] vfs_write+0x546/0xa90 fs/read_write.c:686 ksys_write+0x149/0x250 fs/read_write.c:738 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:63 [inline] do_syscall_64+0xf3/0x3d0 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f The root cause is in the corrupted image, there is a dnode has the same node id w/ its inode, so during f2fs_get_dnode_of_data(), it tries to access block address in dnode at offset 934, however it parses the dnode as inode node, so that get_dnode_addr() returns 360, then it tries to access page address from 360 + 934 * 4 = 4096 w/ 4 bytes. To fix this issue, let's add sanity check for node id of all direct nodes during f2fs_get_dnode_of_data().

Local access to the mount is required, so Attack Vector is Local.\nAC:L - Given a crafted f2fs image (a direct-node nid equal to the inode\u0027s own nid), the out-of-bounds access is fully deterministic \u2014 the attacker selects the OOB offset simply by choosing the file offset to write, and there is no race or unpredictable memory-layout precondition.\nPR:L - No capability or privilege check exists between the write syscall and `f2fs_get_dnode_of_data()`; any unprivileged user with access to the mounted (attacker-supplied or corrupted) f2fs volume can trigger it, matching the Android/removable-media deployment model where f2fs volumes are user-accessible.\nUI:N - Once the crafted image is present/mounted \u2014 commonly automatic via udisks2/vold-style auto-mount of removable media \u2014 the attacker triggers the bug entirely on their own with ordinary file writes, requiring no action from another user.\nS:U - The out-of-bounds access corrupts kernel memory within the same kernel security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - `data_blkaddr()` performs an out-of-bounds read of up to ~336 bytes past the node page at 84 attacker-chosen 4-byte offsets, and the leaked values are surfaced to userspace as block addresses via FIBMAP/FIEMAP (`f2fs_bmap`); the accompanying heap corruption further enables information disclosure.\nI:H - `__set_data_blkaddr()` writes 4 bytes (`NEW_ADDR`, and later real block addresses) at the same out-of-bounds offset, giving an out-of-bounds write into memory adjacent to a page-cache page at attacker-selected offsets \u2014 a heap-corruption primitive suitable for control-flow hijacking.\nA:H - The bug reproduces as a KASAN-reported out-of-bounds access; corrupting adjacent kernel page/slab memory readily causes an oops or panic, and the condition is repeatedly triggerable."
