In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<\/p>\n
netfs: Fix streaming write being overwritten<\/p>\n
In order to avoid reading whilst writing, netfslib will allow “streaming
\nwrites” in which dirty data is stored directly into folios without reading
\nthem first. Such folios are marked dirty but may not be marked uptodate.
\nIf a folio is entirely written by a streaming write, uptodate will be set,
\notherwise it will have a netfs_folio struct attached to ->private recording
\nthe dirty region.<\/p>\n
In the event that a partially written streaming write page is to be
\noverwritten entirely by a single write(), netfs_perform_write() will try to
\ncopy over it, but doesn’t discard the netfs_folio if it succeeds; further,
\nit doesn’t correctly handle a partial copy that overwrites some of the
\ndirty data.<\/p>\n
Fix this by the following:<\/p>\n
(1) If the folio is successfully overwritten, free the netfs_folio struct
\n before marking the page uptodate.<\/p>\n
(2) If the copy to the folio partially fails, but short of the dirty data,
\n just ignore the copy.<\/p>\n
(3) If the copy partially fails and overwrites some of the dirty data,
\n accept the copy, update the netfs_folio struct to record the new data.
\n If the folio is now filled, free the netfs_folio and set uptodate,
\n otherwise return a partial write.<\/p>\n
