{"id":"AZL-102285","summary":"CVE-2026-90205 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nocfs2: validate orphan slot during inode read\n\nPatch series \"ocfs2: validate active orphan slots during inode read\".\n\nOCFS2 trusts active ordinary and append-DIO orphan slots read from dinodes.\nA corrupted slot can therefore index osb_orphan_wipes or the slot-local\nsystem-inode cache outside their allocations before the corruption is\nreported.\n\nPatch 1 validates the ordinary orphan slot used by inode wipe processing.\nPatch 2 validates the append-DIO orphan slot used by DIO completion and\norphan recovery.  Both checks reject corrupt metadata at the existing inode\nvalidation boundary.\n\n\nThis patch (of 2):\n\n[BUG]\nA corrupted dinode with OCFS2_ORPHANED_FL can carry an\ni_orphaned_slot outside the mounted filesystem slot range.\nocfs2_wipe_inode() uses it to index osb_orphan_wipes before looking\nup the orphan directory, causing an out-of-bounds memory access.\n\nBUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in ocfs2_get_system_file_inode+0x780/0x820 fs/ocfs2/sysfile.c:102\nRead of size 8 at addr ffff88800b767c00 by task kworker/u8:3/85\nCall Trace:\n ...\n ocfs2_get_system_file_inode+0x780/0x820 fs/ocfs2/sysfile.c:102\n ocfs2_wipe_inode+0x292/0xf70 fs/ocfs2/inode.c:840\n ocfs2_delete_inode fs/ocfs2/inode.c:1155 [inline]\n ocfs2_evict_inode+0x6c9/0x1170 fs/ocfs2/inode.c:1295\n evict+0x38e/0x8f0 fs/inode.c:810\n iput_final fs/inode.c:1914 [inline]\n iput fs/inode.c:1966 [inline]\n iput+0x55b/0x8b0 fs/inode.c:1926\n ocfs2_recover_orphans+0x610/0xe40 fs/ocfs2/journal.c:2374\n ocfs2_complete_recovery+0x5af/0xd00 fs/ocfs2/journal.c:1373\n ...\n\n[CAUSE]\nocfs2_validate_inode_block() validates i_suballoc_slot but leaves\nthe active ordinary orphan slot unchecked.
