CVE-2022-50020 Information

Description

In the Linux kernel the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ext4: avoid resizing to a partial cluster size

This patch avoids an attempt to resize the filesystem to an unaligned cluster boundary. An online resize to a size that is not integral to cluster size results in the last iteration attempting to grow the fs by a negative amount which trips a BUG_ON and leaves the fs with a corrupted in-memory superblock.
