CVE-2023-53447
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: don't reset unchangable mount option in f2fs_remount()
syzbot reports a bug as below:
The root cause is race condition as below: - since it tries to remount rw filesystem, so that do_remount won't call sb_prepare_remount_readonly to block fallocate, there may be race condition in between remount and fallocate. - in f2fs_remount(), default_options() will reset mount option to default one, and then update it based on result of parse_options(), so there is a hole which race condition can happen.
Thread A Thread B - f2fs_fill_super - parse_options - clear_opt(READ_EXTENT_CACHE)
