CVE-2024-41034 Information

Description

In the Linux kernel the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nilfs2: fix kernel bug on rename operation of broken directory

Syzbot reported that in rename directory operation on broken directory on nilfs2 __block_write_begin_int() called to prepare block write may fail BUG_ON check for access exceeding the folio/page size.

This is because nilfs_dotdot() which gets parent directory reference entry (..) of the directory to be moved or renamed does not check consistency enough and may return location exceeding folio/page size for broken directories.

Fix this issue by checking required directory entries (.\ and ..) in the first chunk of the directory in nilfs_dotdot().
