MediumMetricsAV:L/AC:L/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
The issue is related to the block integrity functionality in the Linux kernel. Placing multiple protection information buffers inside the same page can cause errors because
set page dirty lock() cannot be called from interrupt context. Since a protection information buffer is not backed by a file, there is no need to set its page dirty. The resolution involves dropping the call to set page dirty lock() and removing the last argument to bio integrity unpin bvec().Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
