CVE-2024-27033

Kernel panic via F2FS block-address fault injection

Published May 1, 2024 · Updated May 11, 2026

Denial of service in Linux kernel F2FS allows attackers to trigger a kernel panic through block-address validity fault injection. The verify_blkaddr function calls f2fs_bug_on after f2fs_is_valid_blkaddr returns false, converting an injected validation failure into a panic. Reachability requires an F2FS filesystem with block-address validity fault injection enabled, and the resulting panic interrupts the host.
