      <title>CVE-2024-50230 — nilfs2: fix kernel bug due to missing clearing of checked flag</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2024-50230</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;nilfs2: fix kernel bug due to missing clearing of checked flag&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Syzbot reported that in directory operations after nilfs2 detects
filesystem corruption and degrades to read-only,
__block_write_begin_int(), which is called to prepare block writes, may
fail the BUG_ON check for accesses exceeding the folio/page size,
triggering a kernel bug.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This was found to be because the &amp;#34;checked&amp;#34; flag of a page/folio was not
cleared when it was discarded by nilfs2&amp;#39;s own routine, which causes the
sanity check of directory entries to be skipped when the directory
page/folio is reloaded.  So, fix that.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This was necessary when the use of nilfs2&amp;#39;s own page discard routine was
applied to more than just metadata files.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
