No remote peer can reach `bio_first_folio()`.\nAC:L - Fully deterministic and race-free: the attacker just supplies a page-aligned but unmapped buffer so `iov_iter_extract_pages()` returns -EFAULT on the first iteration, leaving `bi_vcnt == 0` on the error path. syzbot produced a reliable C reproducer.\nPR:L - `scsi_cmd_allowed()` grants read-safe SG_IO commands to any user who can open the device (no CAP_SYS_RAWIO), and desktop/kiosk seat ACLs, `disk`/`cdrom` group membership, or container device grants provide that to unprivileged users; the bcachefs `O_DIRECT` path (fs/bcachefs/fs-io-direct.c:142) needs only an ordinary file. Real root in the init namespace is not required.\nUI:N - The attacking process performs the entire sequence itself with a single ioctl or direct-I/O syscall against an already-present device or file. No victim action, mount, or file-open by another user is involved.\nS:U - The uninitialized-bvec dereference and its consequences are confined to the kernel's own security authority on the same host, with no hypervisor, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary crossed.\nC:H - `bio_first_folio()` reads an uninitialized `bio_vec` from recycled mempool memory and `bio_check_pages_dirty()` then branches on `folio_test_dirty()` of that stale pointer, disclosing kernel heap state; the resulting page-refcount corruption is leverageable into arbitrary memory disclosure.\nI:H - `__bio_release_pages()` performs `folio_mark_dirty()` and `unpin_user_page()` on the stale, groomable `bv_page` for `bv_len` bytes, dropping refcounts on pages that were never pinned — a refcount underflow that yields premature free and a page-level use-after-free write primitive.\nA:H - syzbot reproduced both a NULL pointer dereference in `__bio_release_pages()` and a general protection fault in `bio_first_folio()`; either oopses the kernel and can be re-triggered at will by an unprivileged process."}]}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["include/linux/bio.h"],"versions":[{"version":"640d1930bef4f87ec8d8d2b05f0f6edc1dfcf662","lessThan":"c6350b5cb78e9024c49eaee6fdb914ad2903a5fe","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"640d1930bef4f87ec8d8d2b05f0f6edc1dfcf662","lessThan":"a6bd8182137a12d22d3f2cee463271bdcb491659","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"640d1930bef4f87ec8d8d2b05f0f6edc1dfcf662","lessThan":"ca3ede3f5893e2d26d4dbdef1eec28a8487fafde","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"640d1930bef4f87ec8d8d2b05f0f6edc1dfcf662","lessThan":"7bed6f3d08b7af27b7015da8dc3acf2b9c1f21d7","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["include/linux/bio.h"],"versions":[{"version":"5.17","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"5.17","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.75","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.14","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.7.2","lessThanOrEqual":"6.7.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.8","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.17","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.75"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.17","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.14"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.17","versionEndExcluding":"6.7.2"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.17","versionEndExcluding":"6.8"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c6350b5cb78e9024c49eaee6fdb914ad2903a5fe"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a6bd8182137a12d22d3f2cee463271bdcb491659"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ca3ede3f5893e2d26d4dbdef1eec28a8487fafde"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7bed6f3d08b7af27b7015da8dc3acf2b9c1f21d7"}],"title":"block: Fix iterating over an empty bio with bio_for_each_folio_all","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}},"adp":[{"title":"CISA ADP Vulnrichment","metrics":[{"other":{"type":"ssvc","content":{"id":"CVE-2024-26632","role":"CISA Coordinator","options":[{"Exploitation":"none"},{"Automatable":"no"},{"Technical Impact":"partial"}],"version":"2.0.3","timestamp":"2024-03-18T15:42:33.391380Z"}}}],"providerMetadata":{"orgId":"134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0","shortName":"CISA-ADP","dateUpdated":"2024-06-04T17:48:29.866Z"}},{"providerMetadata":{"orgId":"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108","shortName":"CVE","dateUpdated":"2024-08-02T00:07:19.786Z"},"title":"CVE Program Container","references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c6350b5cb78e9024c49eaee6fdb914ad2903a5fe","tags":["x_transferred"]},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a6bd8182137a12d22d3f2cee463271bdcb491659","tags":["x_transferred"]},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ca3ede3f5893e2d26d4dbdef1eec28a8487fafde","tags":["x_transferred"]},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7bed6f3d08b7af27b7015da8dc3acf2b9c1f21d7","tags":["x_transferred"]}]}]}}
