Technical description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: don't BUG_ON an invalid journal dinode
[BUG]
A fuzzed OCFS2 image can corrupt the current slot journal dinode while
mount is still in progress. The mount path first reports the invalid
journal block and then crashes in shutdown:
