From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2018 01:56:09 +0000 (-0400) Subject: ext4: fail ext4_iget for root directory if unallocated X-Git-Tag: v4.17-rc1~134^2~12 X-Git-Url: http://git.osdn.net/view?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8e4b5eae5decd9dfe5a4ee369c22028f90ab4c44;p=uclinux-h8%2Flinux.git ext4: fail ext4_iget for root directory if unallocated If the root directory has an i_links_count of zero, then when the file system is mounted, then when ext4_fill_super() notices the problem and tries to call iput() the root directory in the error return path, ext4_evict_inode() will try to free the inode on disk, before all of the file system structures are set up, and this will result in an OOPS caused by a NULL pointer dereference. This issue has been assigned CVE-2018-1092. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199179 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1560777 Reported-by: Wen Xu Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org --- diff --git a/fs/ext4/inode.c b/fs/ext4/inode.c index 435965598cb8..18aa2ef963ad 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/inode.c +++ b/fs/ext4/inode.c @@ -4732,6 +4732,12 @@ struct inode *ext4_iget(struct super_block *sb, unsigned long ino) goto bad_inode; raw_inode = ext4_raw_inode(&iloc); + if ((ino == EXT4_ROOT_INO) && (raw_inode->i_links_count == 0)) { + EXT4_ERROR_INODE(inode, "root inode unallocated"); + ret = -EFSCORRUPTED; + goto bad_inode; + } + if (EXT4_INODE_SIZE(inode->i_sb) > EXT4_GOOD_OLD_INODE_SIZE) { ei->i_extra_isize = le16_to_cpu(raw_inode->i_extra_isize); if (EXT4_GOOD_OLD_INODE_SIZE + ei->i_extra_isize >
