Comment 1 Robb Gatica 2024-04-03 22:48:14 UTC
Created kernel tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 2273120]

Comment 5 Eric Sandeen 2024-04-09 20:24:46 UTC
For future reference, we don't ship nilfs2 in RHEL. No nilfs2 issues will ever affect rhel8 or rhel9. Linked issues have been closed NOTABUG.

Comment 8 Alex 2024-06-09 13:28:16 UTC
The result of automatic check (that is developed by Alexander Larkin) for this CVE-2024-26697 is: 	SKIP	No affected files built, so skip this CVE	NO			-	-	unknown (where first YES/NO value means if related sources built).
