CVE-2023-53804 in KernelИнформация

Сводка (Английский)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nilfs2: fix use-after-free bug of nilfs_root in nilfs_evict_inode()

During unmount process of nilfs2, nothing holds nilfs_root structure after
nilfs2 detaches its writer in nilfs_detach_log_writer(). However, since
nilfs_evict_inode() uses nilfs_root for some cleanup operations, it may
cause use-after-free read if inodes are left in "garbage_list" and
released by nilfs_dispose_list() at the end of nilfs_detach_log_writer().

Fix this issue by modifying nilfs_evict_inode() to only clear inode
without additional metadata changes that use nilfs_root if the file system
is degraded to read-only or the writer is detached.
