      <title>CVE-2026-72225 — jbd2: fix integer underflow in jbd2_journal_initialize_fast_commit()</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-72225</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;jbd2: fix integer underflow in jbd2_journal_initialize_fast_commit()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;jbd2_journal_initialize_fast_commit() validates journal capacity by
checking (journal-&amp;gt;j_last - num_fc_blks &amp;lt; JBD2_MIN_JOURNAL_BLOCKS).
Both j_last and num_fc_blks are unsigned, so when num_fc_blks exceeds
j_last the subtraction wraps to a large value, bypassing the bounds
check.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The resulting underflow corrupts j_last, j_fc_first, and j_free,
leading to journal abort.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fix by checking num_fc_blks against j_last before the subtraction,
returning -EFSCORRUPTED.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
