"The version of kernel installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore,
affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-50006 advisory.
- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix i_data_sem unlock order in
ext4_ind_migrate() Fuzzing reports a possible deadlock in jbd2_log_wait_commit. This issue is triggered
when an EXT4_IOC_MIGRATE ioctl is set to require synchronous updates because the file descriptor is opened
with O_SYNC. This can lead to the jbd2_journal_stop() function calling jbd2_might_wait_for_commit(),
potentially causing a deadlock if the EXT4_IOC_MIGRATE call races with a write(2) system call. This
problem only arises when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is enabled. In this case, the jbd2_might_wait_for_commit
macro locks jbd2_handle in the jbd2_journal_stop function while i_data_sem is locked. This triggers
lockdep because the jbd2_journal_start function might also lock the same jbd2_handle simultaneously. Found
by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with syzkaller. Rule: add (CVE-2024-50006)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
