The unending stream of syzbot bug reports and overwrought filing of CVEs
for corner case handling (i.e. things that distract from actual user
complaints) in XFS has generated all sorts of of overheated rhetoric
about how every bug is a Serious Security Issue(tm) because anyone can
craft a malicious filesystem on a USB stick, insert the stick into a
victim machine, and mount will trigger a bug in the kernel driver that
leads to some compromise or DoS or something.
I thought that nobody would be foolish enough to automount an XFS
filesystem. What a fool I was! It turns out that udisks can be told
that it's okay to automount things, and then GNOME will do exactly that.
Including mounting mangled XFS filesystems! Same with bcachefs!
<delete angry rant about poor decisionmaking and armchair fs developers
blasting us on X while not actually doing any of the work>
Turn off /this/ idiocy by adding a udev rule to tell udisks not to
automount bcachefs filesystems.
This will not stop a logged in user from unwittingly inserting a
malicious storage device and pressing [mount] and getting breached.
This is not a substitute for a thorough audit. This is not a substitute
for lklfuse. This does not solve the general problem of in-kernel fs
drivers being a huge attack surface. I just want to give Kent a break
from some of the oceans of bu******.
