CVE-2025-40179

*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> ext4: verify orphan file size is not too big<br /> <br /> In principle orphan file can be arbitrarily large. However orphan replay<br /> needs to traverse it all and we also pin all its buffers in memory. Thus<br /> filesystems with absurdly large orphan files can lead to big amounts of<br /> memory consumed. Limit orphan file size to a sane value and also use<br /> kvmalloc() for allocating array of block descriptor structures to avoid<br /> large order allocations for sane but large orphan files.
