From a42f99be8a16b32a0bb91bb6dda212a6ad61be5d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chao Yu Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2026 19:22:18 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: fix to avoid UAF in f2fs_write_end_io() commit ce2739e482bce8d2c014d76c4531c877f382aa54 upstream. As syzbot reported an use-after-free issue in f2fs_write_end_io(). It is caused by below race condition: loop device umount - worker_thread - loop_process_work - do_req_filebacked - lo_rw_aio - lo_rw_aio_complete - blk_mq_end_request - blk_update_request - f2fs_write_end_io - dec_page_count - folio_end_writeback - kill_f2fs_super - kill_block_super - f2fs_put_super : free(sbi) : get_pages(, F2FS_WB_CP_DATA) accessed sbi which is freed In kill_f2fs_super(), we will drop all page caches of f2fs inodes before call free(sbi), it guarantee that all folios should end its writeback, so it should be safe to access sbi before last folio_end_writeback(). Let's relocate ckpt thread wakeup flow before folio_end_writeback() to resolve this issue.
