CVE-2026-89840

f2fs: validate MOVE_RANGE destination size

Published Sep 16, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.1 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

f2fs: validate MOVE_RANGE destination size

F2FS_IOC_MOVE_RANGE checks the source range, but not the destination end
before updating i_size. A source hole can expose this: __clone_blkaddrs()
skips NULL_ADDR entries and returns success, so the caller can still extend
the destination inode with unchecked pos_out + len.

Reject destination overflow and use inode_newsize_ok() before extending
the destination inode.
