CVE-2024-49887

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix to don't panic system for no free segment fault injection f2fs: fix to don't panic system for no free segment fault injection syzbot reports a f2fs bug as below: F2FS-fs (loop0): inject no free segment in get_new_segment of __allocate_new_segment+0x1ce/0x940 fs/f2fs/segment.c:3167 F2FS-fs (loop0): Stopped filesystem due to reason: 7 ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at fs/f2fs/segment.c:2748!

Attila Szász discovered that the HFS+ file system implementation in the Linux Kernel contained a heap overflow vulnerability. An attacker could use a specially crafted file system image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
