In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix inode leak in ext4_xattr_inode_create() on an error path
There is issue as follows when do setxattr with inject fault:
[localhost]# fsck.ext4 -fn /dev/sda
e2fsck 1.46.6-rc1 (12-Sep-2022)
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Pass 2: Checking directory structure
Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity
Pass 4: Checking reference counts
Unattached zero-length inode 15. Clear? no
Unattached inode 15
Connect to /lost+found? no
Pass 5: Checking group summary information
/dev/sda: ********** WARNING: Filesystem still has errors **********
/dev/sda: 15/655360 files (0.0% non-contiguous), 66755/2621440 blocks
This occurs in 'ext4_xattr_inode_create()'. If 'ext4_mark_inode_dirty()'
fails, dropping i_nlink of the inode is needed. Or will lead to inode leak. |
