CVE-2021-47007
MediumIn the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix panic during f2fs_resize_fs() f2fs_resize_fs() hangs in below callstack with testcase: - mkfs 16GB image & mount image - dd 8GB fileA - dd 8GB fileB - sync - rm fileA - sync - resize filesystem to 8GB kernel BUG at segment.c:2484!
