CVE-2022-49380 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2022-49380: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix to avoid f2fs_bug_on() in dec_valid_node_count() As Yanming reported in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215897 I have encountered a bug in F2FS file system in kernel v5.17. The kernel should enable CONFIG_KASAN=y and CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE=y. You can reproduce the bug by running the following commands: The kernel message is shown below: kernel BUG at fs/f2fs/f2fs.h:2511! Call Trace: f2fs_remove_inode_page+0x2a2/0x830 f2fs_evict_inode+0x9b7/0x1510 evict+0x282/0x4e0 do_unlinkat+0x33a/0x540 __x64_sys_unlinkat+0x8e/0xd0 do_syscall_64+0x3b/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae The root cause is: .total_valid_block_count or .total_valid_node_count could fuzzed to zero, then once dec_valid_node_count() was called, it will cause BUG_ON(), this patch fixes to print warning info and set SBI_NEED_FSCK into CP instead of panic.

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2022-49380

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2022-49380 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2022-49380

No exploitability data is available for CVE-2022-49380.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2022-49380, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.
