CVE-2024-40971 (GCVE-0-2024-40971)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2024-07-12 12:32 – Updated: 2026-08-05 11:34

Title

f2fs: remove clear SB_INLINECRYPT flag in default_options

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: remove clear SB_INLINECRYPT flag in default_options In f2fs_remount, SB_INLINECRYPT flag will be clear and re-set. If create new file or open file during this gap, these files will not use inlinecrypt. Worse case, it may lead to data corruption if wrappedkey_v0 is enable. Thread A: Thread B: -f2fs_remount -f2fs_file_open or f2fs_new_inode -default_options <- clear SB_INLINECRYPT flag -fscrypt_select_encryption_impl -parse_options <- set SB_INLINECRYPT again

Severity

No network protocol handler or remote peer data is involved.\nAC:L - There is no tight race to win: whenever the remount option string omits `inlinecrypt`, `SB_INLINECRYPT` stays cleared for the full duration of the remount (which includes multi-second work such as `f2fs_disable_checkpoint()`\u0027s GC loop) or permanently on success, and the attacker simply runs a continuous file-creation loop, which is entirely under their control. f2fs remounts are routine, frequent system operations on the primary deployment (Android `/data`, embedded ro\u2192rw transitions), not an extenuating circumstance.\nPR:L - The exploiting side \u2014 opening or creating files on the encrypted f2fs mount so they latch `ci_inlinecrypt = false` \u2014 requires only an ordinary unprivileged local account, with no capability check anywhere on the `f2fs_file_open()`/`f2fs_new_inode()` path. Only the environmental remount needs CAP_SYS_ADMIN, and that is a routine system action, not a privilege the attacker must hold.\nUI:N - The attacker performs their own file creations with no action required from another human; the remount is an automated system operation performed by init/vold/systemd during boot, user unlock, or OTA, not an interactive victim step.\nS:U - The mis-selected encryption implementation and the resulting corruption stay within the f2fs superblock and the kernel\u0027s own security authority. No VM, IOMMU, container, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:L - The bug silently downgrades file-contents encryption from the inline crypto engine \u2014 where, with hardware-wrapped keys, key material never leaves the hardware key slots \u2014 to the software crypto API, materializing usable key material in kernel RAM on vendor kernels that permit the fallback and defeating the protection the `inlinecrypt` mount option was chosen to provide. Data is still encrypted on disk, so this is a limited weakening rather than an arbitrary read.\nI:H - Files created or opened while the flag is cleared are permanently bound to the wrong crypto implementation, so with `wrappedkey_v0` their contents are written under a different key than the one used on read-back, producing silent, persistent, unrecoverable corruption of user data on the encrypted partition \u2014 exactly the \"data corruption\" the fix commit describes. The corruption survives reboot and is not detectable or repairable by the affected application.\nA:H - On kernels with hardware-wrapped key support, `fscrypt_setup_v2_file_key()` returns `-EINVAL` for every regular-file open when inline crypt was not selected, so the entire encrypted data partition becomes inaccessible for the duration of the window \u2014 or indefinitely if the remount omitted `inlinecrypt` \u2014 rendering an Android/embedded device unusable. Corrupted system files on `/data` additionally force a factory reset to recover."
