CVE-2024-57941

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue arises when caching for a cookie is temporarily disabled, and netfslib uses the deprecated PG private 2 method. In such cases, netfs advance write() fails to properly handle the situation, leading to discarded requests and folios being left with PG private 2 set. This problem was identified by running the generic/013 xfstest against ceph with an active cache.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
