CVE-2024-26869

CVSS v3.1

4.7

Medium

VectorAV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description A race condition in the Linux kernel can cause data corruption. The issue occurs when the invalidate mapping pages() function fails to invalidate a meta inode page due to lock failure or dirty/writeback status. This can lead to data corruption when the f2fs submit page bio() function writes last dirty data to an old block address. To resolve this issue, the truncate inode pages range() function should be used instead of invalidate mapping pages() to ensure the meta inode page is dropped.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
