Task hang via overlapped EROFS pclusters
Published Oct 21, 2024 · Updated Sep 8, 2026
Denial of service in Linux EROFS allows local users to hang tasks by accessing a crafted compressed filesystem image with overlapping pclusters. Within fs/erofs/zdata.c, z_erofs_fill_bio_vec() and BIO submission are ordered incorrectly for nonincremental physical blocks, creating waits on locked cached folios. Exploitation requires local access to a deliberately malformed EROFS image; normal mkfs output cannot create the overlap, and the reported result is a task hang rather than data disclosure or code execution.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=V3.1.5 <*
- Affected versionversion=V3.1.6 <*
