CVE-2022-50273

Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.5)—

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

f2fs: fix to do sanity check on destination blkaddr during recovery

As Wenqing Liu reported in bugzilla:

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216456

If we enable CONFIG_F2FS_CHECK_FS config, it will trigger a kernel panic instead of warning.

The root cause is: in fuzzed image, SIT table is inconsistent with inode mapping table, result in triggering such warning during SIT table update.

This patch introduces a new flag DATA_GENERIC_ENHANCE_UPDATE, w/ this flag, data block recovery flow can check destination blkaddr's validation in SIT table, and skip f2fs_replace_block() to avoid inconsistent status.
