UBUNTU-CVE-2026-43365: Ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge vulnerability

Q: Which filesystems are most likely to be affected?

The described failure affects XFS filesystems on storage with 4 KiB physical sectors when the filesystem superblock does not specify a log stripe unit. The example shows an internal XFS log with 4096-byte sectors and sunit=0.

Q: What are the practical consequences if this condition is present?

The undersized in-core log roundoff value can corrupt the XFS log. Recovery can then fail with torn-write CRC errors, an inability to locate the log tail, and an unmountable filesystem.

Q: How can I identify an affected filesystem or an existing failure?

Inspect XFS filesystem information for a 4096-byte sector size and a log stripe unit of zero, such as sectsz=4096 and sunit=0. Kernel logs may show messages including "Torn write (CRC failure)", "failed to locate log tail", "log mount/recovery failed", or "log mount failed".

Q: Which Ubuntu kernel packages are listed as affected by this record?

The record lists Ubuntu linux, linux-realtime, linux-azure, linux-gcp, linux-azure-fde, linux-riscv, linux-gke, and linux-gkeop packages.

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfs: fix undersized liclogroundoff values If the superblock doesn't list a log stripe unit, we set the incore log roundoff value to 512. This leads to corrupt logs and unmountable filesystems in generic/617 on a disk with 4k physical sectors... XFS (sda1): Mounting V5 Filesystem ff3121ca-26e6-4b77-b742-aaff9a449e1c XFS (sda1): Torn write (CRC failure) detected at log block 0x318e. Truncating head block from 0x3197. XFS (sda1): failed to locate log tail XFS (sda1): log mount/recovery failed: error -74 XFS (sda1): log mount failed XFS (sda1): Mounting V5 Filesystem ff3121ca-26e6-4b77-b742-aaff9a449e1c XFS (sda1): Ending clean mount ...on the current xfsprogs for-next which has a broken mkfs. xfsinfo shows this... meta-data=/dev/sda1 isize=512 agcount=4, agsize=644992 blks = sectsz=4096 attr=2, projid32bit=1 = crc=1 finobt=1, sparse=1, rmapbt=1 = reflink=1 bigtime=1 inobtcount=1 nrext64=1 = exchange=1 metadir=1 data = bsize=4096 blocks=2579968, imaxpct=25 = sunit=0 swidth=0 blks naming =version 2 bsize=4096 ascii-ci=0, ftype=1, parent=1 log =internal log bsize=4096 blocks=16384, version=2 = sectsz=4096 sunit=0 blks, lazy-count=1 realtime =none extsz=4096 blocks=0, rtextents=0 = rgcount=0 rgsize=268435456 extents = zoned=0 start=0 reserved=0 ...observe that the log section has sectsz=4096 sunit=0, which means that the roundoff factor is 512, not 4096 as you'd expect. We should fix mkfs not to generate broken filesystems, but anyone can fuzz the ondisk superblock so we should be more cautious. I think the inadequate logic predates commit a6a65fef5ef8d0, but that's clearly going to require a different backport.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which filesystems are most likely to be affected?

The described failure affects XFS filesystems on storage with 4 KiB physical sectors when the filesystem superblock does not specify a log stripe unit. The example shows an internal XFS log with 4096-byte sectors and sunit=0.

What are the practical consequences if this condition is present?

The undersized in-core log roundoff value can corrupt the XFS log. Recovery can then fail with torn-write CRC errors, an inability to locate the log tail, and an unmountable filesystem.

How can I identify an affected filesystem or an existing failure?

Inspect XFS filesystem information for a 4096-byte sector size and a log stripe unit of zero, such as sectsz=4096 and sunit=0. Kernel logs may show messages including "Torn write (CRC failure)", "failed to locate log tail", "log mount/recovery failed", or "log mount failed".

Which Ubuntu kernel packages are listed as affected by this record?

The record lists Ubuntu linux, linux-realtime, linux-azure, linux-gcp, linux-azure-fde, linux-riscv, linux-gke, and linux-gkeop packages.
