NameCVE-2026-63816
DescriptionIn the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: atomic: fix UAF issue on f2fs_inode_info.atomic_inode - ioctl(F2FS_IOC_GARBAGE_COLLECT_RANGE) - shrink - f2fs_gc - gc_data_segment - ra_data_block(cow_inode) - mapping = F2FS_I(inode)->atomic_inode->i_mapping : f2fs_is_cow_file(cow_inode) is true - f2fs_evict_inode(atomic_inode) - clear_inode_flag(fi->cow_inode, FI_COW_FILE) - F2FS_I(fi->cow_inode)->atomic_inode = NULL ... - truncate_inode_pages_final(atomic_inode) - f2fs_grab_cache_folio(mapping) : create folio in atomic_inode->mapping - clear_inode(atomic_inode) - BUG_ON(atomic_inode->i_data.nrpages) We need to add a reference on fi->atomic_inode before using its mapping field during garbage collection, otherwise, it will cause UAF issue.
