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 &amp;#39;make_bad_inode()&amp;#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.
