CVE-2025-23130 Information

Description

In the Linux kernel the following vulnerability has been resolved:

f2fs: fix to avoid panic once fallocation fails for pinfile

syzbot reports a f2fs bug as below:

Concurrent pinfile allocation may run out of free section result in panic in get_new_segment() let’s expand pin_sem lock coverage to include f2fs_gc() so that we can make sure to reclaim enough free space for following allocation.

In addition do below changes to enhance error path handling:

• call f2fs_bug_on() only in non-pinfile allocation path in get_new_segment().
• call reset_curseg_fields() to reset all fields of curseg in new_curseg()
