CVE-2022-49079
Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.5)—
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: zoned: traverse devices under chunk_mutex in btrfs_can_activate_zone
btrfs_can_activate_zone() can be called with the device_list_mutex already held, which will lead to a deadlock:
Instead of using the RCU on fs_devices->device_list we can use fs_devices->alloc_list, protected by the chunk_mutex to traverse the list of active devices.
We are in the chunk allocation thread. The newer chunk allocation happens from the devices in the fs_device->alloc_list protected by the chunk_mutex.
Also, a device that reappears after the mount won't join the alloc_list yet and, it will be in the dev_list, which we don't want to consider in the context of the chunk alloc.
