CVE-2022-49742
Last modified
CVE-2022-49742 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: initialize locks earlier in f2fs_fill_super() syzbot is reporting lockdep warning at f2fs_handle_error() [1], for spin_lock(&sbi->error_lock) is called before spin_lock_init() is called. For safe locking in error handling, move initialization of locks (and obvious structures) in f2fs_fill_super() to immediately after memory allocation.. EPSS estimates a 0.11% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
