it is not exposed through NFS, SMB, or other network-facing kernel services.\nAC:L - An attacker with ioctl access can deterministically hit the error path by invoking online repair (XFS_SCRUB_IFLAG_REPAIR) and forcing tempfile creation to fail after xfs_icreate sets sc->tempip (e.g., ENOSPC from filling the filesystem or EIO), without races or uncontrollable victim state.\nPR:L - Both scrub ioctl handlers enforce capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN), which is obtainable by unprivileged users who map root in a user namespace and mount their own XFS filesystem to run online scrub/repair, consistent with other XFS scrub CVE scoring.\nUI:N - Exploitation requires no victim interaction; the attacker issues the scrub/repair ioctl themselves once they have the required privileges and can induce the tempfile-creation failure.\nS:U - Impact is kernel memory corruption and crash within the same kernel security domain during XFS online repair teardown; this does not cross VM, container, or IOMMU security boundaries.\nC:H - On failure after sc->tempip is set, xrep_tempfile_create releases the inode but left a dangling pointer; xchk_teardown then calls xrep_tempfile_rele which performs xfs_is_metadir_inode, xfs_iunlock, and xchk_irele on freed xfs_inode memory\u2014a use-after-free enabling arbitrary kernel read.\nI:H - The stale sc->tempip is dereferenced in xrep_tempfile_rele for locking, metadir cleanup, and inode release on freed memory; UAF on xfs_inode structures can corrupt heap metadata and be leveraged for arbitrary kernel write or control-flow hijacking.\nA:H - Use-after-free on sc->tempip during xchk_teardown provokes double-free, invalid inode lock operations, or kernel oops/panic when online repair setup fails after partial tempfile creation, causing complete host denial of service." } } }
