CVE-2025-22123 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2025-22123: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix to avoid accessing uninitialized curseg syzbot reports a f2fs bug as below: F2FS-fs (loop3): Stopped filesystem due to reason: 7 kworker/u8:7: attempt to access beyond end of device BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffed1604ea3dfa RIP: 0010:get_ckpt_valid_blocks fs/f2fs/segment.h:361 [inline] RIP: 0010:has_curseg_enough_space fs/f2fs/segment.h:570 [inline] RIP: 0010:__get_secs_required fs/f2fs/segment.h:620 [inline] RIP: 0010:has_not_enough_free_secs fs/f2fs/segment.h:633 [inline] RIP: 0010:has_enough_free_secs+0x575/0x1660 fs/f2fs/segment.h:649 <TASK> f2fs_is_checkpoint_ready fs/f2fs/segment.h:671 [inline] f2fs_write_inode+0x425/0x540 fs/f2fs/inode.c:791 write_inode fs/fs-writeback.c:1525 [inline] __writeback_single_inode+0x708/0x10d0 fs/fs-writeback.c:1745 writeback_sb_inodes+0x820/0x1360 fs/fs-writeback.c:1976 wb_writeback+0x413/0xb80 fs/fs-writeback.c:2156 wb_do_writeback fs/fs-writeback.c:2303 [inline] wb_workfn+0x410/0x1080 fs/fs-writeback.c:2343 process_one_work kernel/workqueue.c:3236 [inline] process_scheduled_works+0xa66/0x1840 kernel/workqueue.c:3317 worker_thread+0x870/0xd30 kernel/workqueue.c:3398 kthread+0x7a9/0x920 kernel/kthread.c:464 ret_from_fork+0x4b/0x80 arch/x86/kernel/process.c:148 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:244 Commit 8b10d3653735 ("f2fs: introduce FAULT_NO_SEGMENT") allows to trigger no free segment fault in allocator, then it will update curseg->segno to NULL_SEGNO, though, CP_ERROR_FLAG has been set, f2fs_write_inode() missed to check the flag, and access invalid curseg->segno directly in below call path, then resulting in panic: - f2fs_write_inode - f2fs_is_checkpoint_ready - has_enough_free_secs - has_not_enough_free_secs - __get_secs_required - has_curseg_enough_space - get_ckpt_valid_blocks : access invalid curseg->segno To avoid this issue, let's: - check CP_ERROR_FLAG flag in prior to f2fs_is_checkpoint_ready() in f2fs_write_inode(). - in has_curseg_enough_space(), save curseg->segno into a temp variable, and verify its validation before use.

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2025-22123

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2025-22123 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-2025-22123

No exploitability data is available for CVE-2025-22123.

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-2025-22123, 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.
