Component: kernel
Severity: Low
CWE: CWE-354 (Improper Validation of Integrity Check Value)
CVSS v3: 3.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)
Public date: 2024-10-21T00:00:00+00:00

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nfsd: map the EBADMSG to nfserr_io to avoid warning

Ext4 will throw -EBADMSG through ext4_readdir when a checksum error
occurs, resulting in the following WARNING.

Fix it by mapping EBADMSG to nfserr_io.

nfsd_buffered_readdir
 iterate_dir // -EBADMSG -74
  ext4_readdir // .iterate_shared
   ext4_dx_readdir
    ext4_htree_fill_tree
     htree_dirblock_to_tree
      ext4_read_dirblock
       __ext4_read_dirblock
        ext4_dirblock_csum_verify
         warn_no_space_for_csum
          __warn_no_space_for_csum
        return ERR_PTR(-EFSBADCRC) // -EBADMSG -74
 nfserrno // WARNING
