iomap: avoid avoid truncating 64-bit offset to 32 bits

Published Jan 31, 2025 CVSS 3.1 · 5.5 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iomap: avoid avoid truncating 64-bit offset to 32 bits

on 32-bit kernels, iomap_write_delalloc_scan() was inadvertently using a
32-bit position due to folio_next_index() returning an unsigned long.
This could lead to an infinite loop when writing to an xfs filesystem.
