CVE-2024-53218
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix race in concurrent f2fs_stop_gc_thread
In my test case, concurrent calls to f2fs shutdown report the following stack trace:
The root cause is a race condition in f2fs_stop_gc_thread() called from different f2fs shutdown paths:
The commit c7f114d864ac ("f2fs: fix to avoid use-after-free in f2fs_stop_gc_thread()") attempted to fix this issue by using a read semaphore to prevent races between shutdown and remount threads, but it fails to prevent all race conditions.
Fix it by converting to write lock of s_umount in f2fs_do_shutdown().
