kernel: ext4: power failure during write(2) causes on-disk information leak
A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel where filesystems mounted with data=ordered mode may allow an attacker to read stale data from recently allocated blocks in new files after a system 'reset' by abusing ext4 mechanics of delayed allocation...
kernel: ext4 filesystem page fault race condition with fallocate call.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel when attempting to "punch a hole" in files existing on an ext4 filesystem. When punching holes into a file races with the page fault of the same area, it is possible that freed blocks remain referenced from page cache pages mapped to process' address space...
