CVE-2026-23235

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix out-of-bounds access in sysfs attribute read/write Some f2fs sysfs attributes suffer from out-of-bounds memory access and
incorrect handling of integer values whose size is not 4 bytes. For example:
vm:~# echo 65537 > /sys/fs/f2fs/vde/carve_out
vm:~# cat /sys/fs/f2fs/vde/carve_out
65537
vm:~# echo 4294967297 > /sys/fs/f2fs/vde/atgc_age_threshold
vm:~# cat /sys/fs/f2fs/vde/atgc_age_threshold
1 carve_out maps to {struct f2fs_sb_info}->carve_out, which is a 8-bit
integer. However, the sysfs interface allows setting it to a value
larger than 255, resulting in an out-of-range update. atgc_age_threshold maps to {struct atgc_management}->age_threshold,
which is a 64-bit integer, but its sysfs interface cannot correctly set
values larger than UINT_MAX. The root causes are:
1. __sbi_store() treats all default values as unsigned int, which
prevents updating integers larger than 4 bytes and causes out-of-bounds
writes for integers smaller than 4 bytes. 2. f2fs_sbi_show() also assumes all default values are unsigned int,
leading to out-of-bounds reads and incorrect access to integers larger
than 4 bytes. This patch introduces {struct f2fs_attr}->size to record the actual size
of the integer associated with each sysfs attribute. With this
information, sysfs read and write operations can correctly access and
update values according to their real data size, avoiding memory
corruption and truncation.
