Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
fs,fsverity: remove check for fsverity being enabled in setattr_prepare()<br />
<br />
The check that fs-verity is available in the kernel is not necessary<br />
here. Filesystems could have fsverity files even without fs-verity<br />
enabled. In that case, truncate on fsverity file will succeed, what this<br />
check is trying to prevent.
