      <title>CVE-2024-26773 — ext4: avoid allocating blocks from corrupted group in ext4_mb_try_best_found()</title>
      <link>https://cve.radiocsirt.org/vuln/cve-2024-26773</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ext4: avoid allocating blocks from corrupted group in ext4_mb_try_best_found()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Determine if the group block bitmap is corrupted before using ac_b_ex in
ext4_mb_try_best_found() to avoid allocating blocks from a group with a
corrupted block bitmap in the following concurrency and making the
situation worse.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ext4_mb_regular_allocator
  ext4_lock_group(sb, group)
  ext4_mb_good_group
   // check if the group bbitmap is corrupted
  ext4_mb_complex_scan_group
   // Scan group gets ac_b_ex but doesn&amp;#39;t use it
  ext4_unlock_group(sb, group)
                           ext4_mark_group_bitmap_corrupted(group)
                           // The block bitmap was corrupted during
                           // the group unlock gap.
  ext4_mb_try_best_found
    ext4_lock_group(ac-&amp;gt;ac_sb, group)
    ext4_mb_use_best_found
      mb_mark_used
      // Allocating blocks in block bitmap corrupted group&lt;/p&gt;</description>
