Vulnerability Details : CVE-2021-47335
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix to avoid racing on fsync_entry_slab by multi filesystem instances
As syzbot reported, there is an use-after-free issue during f2fs recovery:
Use-after-free write at 0xffff88823bc16040 (in kfence-#10):
kmem_cache_destroy+0x1f/0x120 mm/slab_common.c:486

do_syscall_64+0x3f/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:47
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae
The root cause is multi f2fs filesystem instances can race on accessing
global fsync_entry_slab pointer, result in use-after-free issue of slab
cache, fixes to init/destroy this slab cache only once during module
init/destroy procedure to avoid this issue.
