In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: avoid dereferencing log items after push callbacks
After xfsaild_push_item() calls iop_push(), the log item may have been freed if the AIL lock was dropped during the push. Background inode reclaim or the dquot shrinker can free the log item while the AIL lock is not held, and the tracepoints in the switch statement dereference the log item after iop_push() returns.
Fix this by capturing the log item type, flags, and LSN before calling xfsaild_push_item(), and introducing a new xfs_ail_push_class trace event class that takes these pre-captured values and the ailp pointer instead of the log item pointer.
AnalysisAI
Use-after-free in Linux kernel's XFS filesystem allows local authenticated users to achieve arbitrary code execution, privilege escalation, or information disclosure. The vulnerability occurs in the XFS Active Item List (AIL) push mechanism where log items can be freed by background reclaim processes while still being dereferenced by tracepoints. …
