  • Bug#1063497: zfs-dkms: Data loss bug in version in bookworm

    From John Goerzen@21:1/5 to All on Thu Feb 8 23:10:01 2024
    Package: zfs-dkms
    Version: 2.1.11-1
    Severity: critical
    Tags: patch upstream
    Justification: causes serious data loss

    Hello ZFS maintainers! Thank you for maintaining this for Debian.

    In the release notes for ZFS 2.1.14 at https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/releases/tag/zfs-2.1.14, it states:

    "This release contains an important fix for a data corruption bug. Full details are in the issue (#15526) and bug fix (#15571). There's also a developer's bug summary that gives a good overview... This bug is very hard to hit, and really only came to light due to changes in cp in coreutils 9.x. It's extremely unlikely that the bug was ever hit on EL7 or EL8 when running cp since they all use coreutils 8.x which performs file copies differently."

    I'll note that bookworm contains coreutils 9.x.

    Two options would exist to get this into stable-proposed-updates:

    1) Backport the patch (linked to from the release notes) onto 2.1.14 (likely easy),

    or

    2) Upgrade stable to 2.1.14.

    If you would like my assistance with either of these steps, I'm available to help.

    John
