Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: dax: fix overflowing extents beyond inode size when partially writing The dax_iomap_rw() does two things in each iteration: map written blocks and copy user data to blocks. If the process is killed by user(See signal handling in dax_iomap_iter()), the copied data will be returned and added on inode size, which means that the length of written extents may exceed the inode size, then fsck will fail. An example is given as: dd if=/dev/urandom of=file bs=4M count=1 dax_iomap_rw iomap_iter // round 1 ext4_iomap_begin ext4_iomap_alloc // allocate 0~2M extents(written flag) dax_iomap_iter // copy 2M data iomap_iter // round 2 iomap_iter_advance iter->pos += iter->processed // iter->pos = 2M ext4_iomap_begin ext4_iomap_alloc // allocate 2~4M extents(written flag) dax_iomap_iter fatal_signal_pending done = iter->pos - iocb->ki_pos // done = 2M ext4_handle_inode_extension ext4_update_inode_size // inode size = 2M fsck reports: Inode 13, i_size is 2097152, should be 4194304. Fix? Fix the problem by truncating extents if the written length is smaller than expected.

Si el usuario finaliza el proceso (consulte el manejo de se\u00f1ales en dax_iomap_iter()), los datos copiados se devolver\u00e1n y se agregar\u00e1n al tama\u00f1o del inodo, lo que significa que la longitud de las extensiones escritas puede exceder el tama\u00f1o del inodo, entonces fsck fallar\u00e1. Se proporciona un ejemplo como: dd if=/dev/urandom of=file bs=4M count=1 dax_iomap_rw iomap_iter // ronda 1 ext4_iomap_begin ext4_iomap_alloc // asignar 0~2M de extensiones (bandera escrita) dax_iomap_iter // copiar 2M de datos iomap_iter // ronda 2 iomap_iter_advance iter-\u0026gt;pos += iter-\u0026gt;processed // iter-\u0026gt;pos = 2M ext4_iomap_begin ext4_iomap_alloc // asignar 2~4M de extensiones (bandera escrita) dax_iomap_iter fatal_signal_pending hecho = iter-\u0026gt;pos - iocb-\u0026gt;ki_pos // hecho = 2M ext4_handle_inode_extension ext4_update_inode_size // tama\u00f1o de inodo = 2M fsck informa: Inodo 13, i_size es 2097152, deber\u00eda ser 4194304. \u00bfSoluci\u00f3n?
