CVE-2022-49380 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix to avoid f2fs_bug_on() in dec_valid_node_count() As Yanming reported in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215897 I have encountered a bug in F2FS file system in kernel v5.17.
