"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\njfs: nlink overflow in jfs_rename\n\nIf nlink is maximal for a directory (-1) and inside that directory you\nperform a rename for some child directory (not moving from the parent),\nthen the nlink of the first directory is first incremented and later\ndecremented. Normally this is fine, but when nlink = -1 this causes a\nwrap around to 0, and then drop_nlink issues a warning.\n\nAfter applying the patch syzbot no longer issues any warnings. I also\nran some basic fs tests to look for any regressions."

{
"lang": "en",
"value": "AV:N - An NFSv3/v4 RENAME on an exported JFS directory follows SunRPC dispatch through nfsd_rename and vfs_rename into jfs_rename. Thus a remote NFS client can reach the vulnerable code.\nAC:L - With the parent nlink at 0xffffffff, one same-parent directory rename deterministically triggers the wrap and warning. No race is required, and the filesystem state can be attacker-controlled.\nPR:N - A writable NFS export permitting anonymous or AUTH_NULL access requires no account or prior privileges. nfsd's export and directory permission checks still permit the operation when the anonymous identity has write access.\nUI:N - The attacker directly submits the RENAME operation after the affected filesystem state exists. No separate victim action is required in an already mounted and exported JFS deployment.\nS:U - The warning and resulting denial of service affect the same kernel and host processing the filesystem operation. No virtualization, IOMMU, or other security boundary is crossed.\nC:N - The overflow affects only the unsigned link-count field and does not read or disclose memory. The count is restored before the successful transaction commits.\nI:N - There is no out-of-bounds access, use-after-free, or arbitrary write primitive. On the successful path the transient zero link count is restored to 0xffffffff before metadata is dirtied or committed.\nA:H - The repeatable WARN_ON can panic the kernel when panic_on_warn or an applicable warn_limit is configured. Even without those settings, repeated remote renames can continuously generate expensive warning traces."
