Summary: A flaw was found in the f2fs filesystem of the Linux kernel. A local user could exploit this by performing specific file system operations that lead to a lack of free space during garbage collection checkpointing in Log-structured File System (LFS) mode. This can cause a system crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
Remediation: No remediation text is recorded.

What, why and how

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: Fix system crash due to lack of free space in LFS When f2fs tries to checkpoint during foreground gc in LFS mode, system crash occurs due to lack of free space if the amount of dirty node and dentry pages generated by data migration exceeds free space. The reproduction sequence is as follows. - 20GiB capacity block device (null_blk) - format and mount with LFS mode - create a file and write 20,000MiB - 4k random write on full range of the file RIP: 0010:new_curseg+0x48a/0x510 [f2fs] Code: 55 e7 f5 89 c0 48 0f af c3 48 8b 5d c0 48 c1 e8 20 83 c0 01 89 43 6c 48 83 c4 28 5b 41 5c 41 5d 41 5e 41 5f 5d c3 cc cc cc cc <0f> 0b f0 41 80 4f 48 04 45 85 f6 0f 84 ba fd ff ff e9 ef fe ff ff RSP: 0018:ffff977bc397b218 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: 00000000000027b9 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 00000000000027c0 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 00000000000027b9 RDI: ffff8c25ab4e74f8 RBP: ffff977bc397b268 R08: 00000000000027b9 R09: ffff8c29e4a34b40 R10: 0000000000000001 R11: ffff977bc397b0d8 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: ffff8c25b4dd81a0 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: ffff8c2f667f9000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff8c344ec80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 000000c00055d000 CR3: 0000000e30810003 CR4: 00000000003706e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Call Trace: <TASK> allocate_segment_by_default+0x9c/0x110 [f2fs] f2fs_allocate_data_block+0x243/0xa30 [f2fs] ? __mod_lruvec_page_state+0xa0/0x150 do_write_page+0x80/0x160 [f2fs] f2fs_do_write_node_page+0x32/0x50 [f2fs] __write_node_page+0x339/0x730 [f2fs] f2fs_sync_node_pages+0x5a6/0x780 [f2fs] block_operations+0x257/0x340 [f2fs] f2fs_write_checkpoint+0x102/0x1050 [f2fs] f2fs_gc+0x27c/0x630 [f2fs] ? folio_mark_dirty+0x36/0x70 f2fs_balance_fs+0x16f/0x180 [f2fs] This patch adds checking whether free sections are enough before checkpoint during gc.

What

Why

The current structured CVE record identifies a security weakness, but the root cause requires confirmation in the linked vendor material.

How

An attacker operating through local access may attempt exploitation with low privileges. If successful, the issue may disrupt the affected service.

How

An attacker operating through local access may attempt exploitation with low privileges. If successful, the issue may disrupt the affected service.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation

Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.

No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material

Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.

None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

Likely attack path: local access → vulnerable operation → disrupt the affected service
Attack surface: Local
Privileges required: Low: a basic authenticated account is required
User interaction: None
Attack complexity: Low: no specialised conditions are recorded
Security boundary: Unchanged: impact remains within the vulnerable component's security authority
Weakness ? CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration.: CWE not yet assigned
CVSS vector ? CVSS means Common Vulnerability Scoring System. The vector records the metric values used to calculate technical severity.: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Common Vulnerability Scoring System 3.1: the compact vector below is decoded into plain language.
AVLocalAttack vector: The attacker needs local access to the vulnerable system.ACLowAttack complexity: No specialised conditions are required beyond attacker-controlled input.PRLowPrivileges required: The attacker needs basic user-level privileges.UINoneUser interaction: No action by another user is required.SUnchangedScope: The security impact remains within the vulnerable component's authority.CHighConfidentiality impact: A successful attack can cause a major loss.IHighIntegrity impact: A successful attack can cause a major loss.AHighAvailability impact: A successful attack can cause a major loss.
Post-exploitation / living off the land: The issue can support a local privilege or sandbox boundary transition; normal system utilities may then be available in the gained context.
