In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs3: fix circular locking dependency in run_unpack_ex
Syzbot reported a circular locking dependency between wnd->rw_lock
(sbi->used.bitmap) and ni->file.run_lock.
The deadlock scenario:
1. ntfs_extend_mft() takes ni->file.run_lock then wnd->rw_lock.
2. run_unpack_ex() takes wnd->rw_lock then tries to acquire
ni->file.run_lock inside ntfs_refresh_zone().
This creates an AB-BA deadlock.
Fix this by using down_read_trylock() instead of down_read() when
acquiring run_lock in run_unpack_ex(). If the lock is contended,
skip ntfs_refresh_zone() - the MFT zone will be refreshed on the
next MFT operation. This breaks the circular dependency since we
never block waiting for run_lock while holding wnd->rw_lock. |
