Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
fuse: write inode in fuse_release()<br />
<br />
A race between write(2) and close(2) allows pages to be dirtied after<br />
fuse_flush -> write_inode_now(). If these pages are not flushed from<br />
fuse_release(), then there might not be a writable open file later. So any<br />
remaining dirty pages must be written back before the file is released.<br />
<br />
This is a partial revert of the blamed commit.
