CVE-2023-53137 – ext4: Fix possible corruption when moving a directory
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2023-53137
02 May 2025 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: Fix possible corruption when moving a directory When we are renaming a directory to a different directory, we need to update '..' entry in the moved directory. However nothing prevents moved directory from being modified and even converted from the inline format to the normal format. When such race happens the rename code gets confused and we crash. Fix the problem by locking the moved directory. In the Linux kernel, the following vul... • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/32f7f22c0b52e8189fef83986b16dc7abe95f2c4 •

CVE-2023-53130 – block: fix wrong mode for blkdev_put() from disk_scan_partitions()

02 May 2025 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: fix wrong mode for blkdev_put() from disk_scan_partitions() If disk_scan_partitions() is called with 'FMODE_EXCL', blkdev_get_by_dev() will be called without 'FMODE_EXCL', however, follow blkdev_put() is still called with 'FMODE_EXCL', which will cause 'bd_holders' counter to leak. Fix the problem by using the right mode for blkdev_put().

02 May 2025 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: Fix deadlock during directory rename As lockdep properly warns, we should not be locking i_rwsem while having transactions started as the proper lock ordering used by all directory handling operations is i_rwsem -> transaction start. Fix the lock ordering by moving the locking of the directory earlier in ext4_rename().
