Related syzbot reports show that async node readahead of a fuzzed image followed by writeback deterministically hits the mismatched-nid case, with no race or layout the attacker cannot arrange.\nPR:L - Mounting f2fs requires privilege (no FS_USERNS_MOUNT), but once the volume is mounted\u2014Android userdata, automounted SD/USB, or a shared workstation\u2014any unprivileged local user can dirty node pages via write/fsync/fallocate/truncate and enter __write_node_folio with no capability check.\nUI:N - After the crafted image is mounted, the attacker triggers node writeback themselves through ordinary file syscalls or in-kernel checkpoint/reclaim; no separate victim action such as opening a file or confirming a prompt is required.\nS:U - The impact is kernel memory and f2fs metadata corruption on the host that mounted the volume; it does not cross a VM, IOMMU, or guest-to-host security boundary.\nC:H - __write_node_folio uses the attacker-controlled footer nid as the NAT key without a range check, so current_nat_addr() indexes nat_bitmap at an attacker-chosen offset (nid/NAT_ENTRY_PER_BLOCK), an unbounded out-of-bounds kernel read. The same nid confusion later parses the planted node with the wrong layout, leaking adjacent folio contents as in CVE-2025-40025.\nI:H - set_node_addr() and f2fs_do_write_node_page() commit the node folio under the footer nid, overwriting an arbitrary NAT entry and remapping any node. Subsequent operations on that nid write through the wrong inode-vs-dnode layout, producing out-of-bounds metadata writes past the node folio.\nA:H - A mismatched nid that fails f2fs_get_node_info() takes redirty_out, looping writepages indefinitely (the hang this check was added to stop). A nid that proceeds hits f2fs_bug_on() in set_node_addr()/write_end_io, panicking with CONFIG_F2FS_CHECK_FS or WARNing and corrupting the filesystem otherwise."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["fs/f2fs/node.c"], "versions": [{"version": "cd2fec912a0f04390d446ed692f73f2da842855f", "lessThan": "a984446aa9d5b787afa3023fc7b44017b80fe3bc", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "0a736109c9d29de0c26567e42cb99b27861aa8ba", "lessThan": "0b196c07407f48a41cd9741cf53e10cb1e23d2e5", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "0a736109c9d29de0c26567e42cb99b27861aa8ba", "lessThan": "7e188e9f9437ab47c3237d609f1b26348d6fea1a", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "971aa8e2a4043d92bf62061b79f74fd4ac59165a", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "6.18.13", "lessThan": "6.18.51", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.19.3", "lessThan": "6.20", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["fs/f2fs/node.c"], "versions": [{"version": "7.0", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "7.0", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.18.51", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2.5", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.2.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.3", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.18.13", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.51"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "7.0", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2.5"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "7.0", "versionEndExcluding": "7.3"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.19.3"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a984446aa9d5b787afa3023fc7b44017b80fe3bc"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0b196c07407f48a41cd9741cf53e10cb1e23d2e5"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7e188e9f9437ab47c3237d609f1b26348d6fea1a"}], "title": "f2fs: fix to pass folio->index to f2fs_sanity_check_node_footer()", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
