"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix to avoid dirent corruption As Al reported in link[1]:
f2fs_rename() ... if (old_dir != new_dir && !whiteout)
f2fs_set_link(old_inode, old_dir_entry, old_dir_page, new_dir); else
f2fs_put_page(old_dir_page, 0); You want correct inumber in the ..
link. And cross-directory rename does move the source to new parent,
even if you'd been asked to leave a whiteout in the old place. [1]
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231017055040.GN800259@ZenIV/ With below
testcase, it may cause dirent corruption, due to it missed to call
f2fs_set_link() to update .. link to new directory. - mkdir -p
dir/foo - renameat2 -w dir/foo bar [ASSERT] (__chk_dots_dentries:1421)
--> Bad inode number[0x4] for '..', parent parent ino is [0x3] [FSCK]
other corrupted bugs [Fail]
This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
