Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
ocfs2: do not use make_bad_inode() in ocfs2_read_inode_block_full()<br />
<br />
This reverts commit 58b6fcd2ab34 ("ocfs2: mark inode bad upon validation<br />
failure during read").<br />
<br />
Since &#39;make_bad_inode()&#39; resets inode type to S_IFREG, doing this for<br />
directory inode during active VFS lookup is likely to confuse the latter,<br />
including VFS_BUG_ON_INODE() triggered in this case.
