CVE-2026-46002

Summary (CVE-2026-46002) The Linux kernel ext2 inode handling is fixed to catch a corner case where an inode with i_nlink == 0 and a non-zero i_mode could slip through if i_dtime is 0, allowing a crafted image to trigger WARN_ON in drop_nlink() via ext2_unlink/rename/rmdir. The patch extends the ...
