https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=250222 Bug ID: 250222 Summary: Multiple ways for a kernel DoS (ufs_lookup_ino) Product: Base System Version: CURRENT Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: emaste@freebsd.org Reported by: Christopher Krah of Fraunhofer FKIE Reporter's ID: FS-15-UFS-4 *Description of the vulnerability*: Mounting a specially crafted UFS filesystem may lead to a kernel Denial of Service that was already anticipated in the code. This is due to the following code in function ufs_dirbad in line 762 in /usr/src/sys/ufs/ufs/ufs_lookup.c: { struct mount *mp; mp = ITOV(ip)->v_mount; if ((mp->mnt_flag & MNT_RDONLY) == 0) panic("ufs_dirbad: %s: bad dir ino %ju at offset %ld: %s", mp->mnt_stat.f_mntonname, (uintmax_t)ip->i_number, (long)offset, how); else (void)printf("%s: bad dir ino %ju at offset %ld: %s\n", mp->mnt_stat.f_mntonname, (uintmax_t)ip->i_number, (long)offset, how); } So far we were able to trigger this panic via 5 different system calls and hence different/multiple unique back traces as of time of writing this email: * sys_mkdir * sys_openat * sys_fsstatat * sys_access * sys_mknodat This shows that the UFS fs is especially vulnerable to this type of kernel DoS. If additional different ways to trigger this behavior appear they will be added to the same shared folder referenced here at [1]. *Affected versions*: tested with FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE AMD64. *Workaround*: None --- FS image to be attached. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
