CVE-2022-50013: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix to avoid use f2fs_bug_on() in f2fs_new_node_page() As Dipanjan Das <mail.dipanjan.das@gmail.com> reported, syzkaller found a f2fs bug as below: RIP: 0010:f2fs_new_node_page+0x19ac/0x1fc0 fs/f2fs/node.c:1295 Call Trace: write_all_xattrs fs/f2fs/xattr.c:487 [inline] __f2fs_setxattr+0xe76/0x2e10 fs/f2fs/xattr.c:743 f2fs_setxattr+0x233/0xab0 fs/f2fs/xattr.c:790 f2fs_xattr_generic_set+0x133/0x170 fs/f2fs/xattr.c:86 __vfs_setxattr+0x115/0x180 fs/xattr.c:182 __vfs_setxattr_noperm+0x125/0x5f0 fs/xattr.c:216 __vfs_setxattr_locked+0x1cf/0x260 fs/xattr.c:277 vfs_setxattr+0x13f/0x330 fs/xattr.c:303 setxattr+0x146/0x160 fs/xattr.c:611 path_setxattr+0x1a7/0x1d0 fs/xattr.c:630 __do_sys_lsetxattr fs/xattr.c:653 [inline] __se_sys_lsetxattr fs/xattr.c:649 [inline] __x64_sys_lsetxattr+0xbd/0x150 fs/xattr.c:649 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x35/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x46/0xb0 NAT entry and nat bitmap can be inconsistent, e.g. one nid is free in nat bitmap, and blkaddr in its NAT entry is not NULL_ADDR, it may trigger BUG_ON() in f2fs_new_node_page(), fix it.
The exploitability of CVE-2022-50013 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).
No exploitability data is available for CVE-2022-50013.
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.
Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2022-50013, 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.
Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2022-50013, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.
