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

f2fs: fix to do sanity check on summary info

As Wenqing Liu reported in bugzilla:

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216456

BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in recover_data+0x63ae/0x6ae0 [f2fs]
Read of size 4 at addr ffff8881464dcd80 by task mount/1013

CPU: 3 PID: 1013 Comm: mount Tainted: G W 6.0.0-rc4 #1
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.15.0-1 04/01/2014
Call Trace:

The root cause is: in fuzzed image, SSA table is corrupted: ofs_in_node
is larger than ADDRS_PER_PAGE(), result in out-of-range access on 4k-size
page.

- recover_data
- do_recover_data
- check_index_in_prev_nodes
- f2fs_data_blkaddr

This patch adds sanity check on summary info in recovery and GC flow
in where the flows rely on them.

After patch:
[ 29.310883] F2FS-fs (loop0): Inconsistent ofs_in_node:65286 in summary, ino:0, nid:6, max:1018
