CVE-2026-53368CVE-2026-53368
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix fsck inconsistency caused by incorrect nat_entry flag usage
f2fs_need_dentry_mark() reads nat_entry flags without mutual exclusion
with the checkpoint path, which can result in an incorrect inode block
marking state. The scenario is as follows:
create & write & fsync 'file A' write checkpoint
- f2fs_do_sync_file // inline inode
- f2fs_write_inode // inode folio is dirty
- f2fs_write_checkpoint
- f2fs_flush_merged_writes
- f2fs_sync_node_pages
- f2fs_fsync_node_pages // no dirty node
- f2fs_need_inode_block_update // return true
- f2fs_fsync_node_pages // inode dirtied
- f2fs_need_dentry_mark //return true
- f2fs_flush_nat_entries
- f2fs_write_che
