CVE-2025-38652

Estado: ModificadaAlta (7.1)—

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

f2fs: fix to avoid out-of-boundary access in devs.path

- touch /mnt/f2fs/012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123 - truncate -s $((1024*1024*1024)) \ /mnt/f2fs/012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123 - touch /mnt/f2fs/file - truncate -s $((1024*1024*1024)) /mnt/f2fs/file - mkfs.f2fs /mnt/f2fs/012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123 \ -c /mnt/f2fs/file - mount /mnt/f2fs/012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123 \ /mnt/f2fs/loop

If device path length equals to MAX_PATH_LEN, sbi->devs.path[] may not end up w/ null character due to path array is fully filled, So accidently, fields locate after path[] may be treated as part of device path, result in parsing wrong device path.

Let's add one byte space for sbi->devs.path[] to store null character of device path string.

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK

Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.

ExplotaciónT1068 Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation85 %

Acceso local (AV:L) sin interacción del usuario sobre kernel Linux permite escalada de privilegios mediante desbordamiento de búfer en devs.path; ejecución de código como resultado de corrupción de memoria.

Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
