Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-10-22 14:06:44 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

NFS: Fix a potential data corruption

We must ensure that the subrequests are joined back into the head before
we can retransmit a request. If the head was not on the commit lists,
because the server wrote it synchronously, we still need to add it back
to the retransmission list.
Add a call that mirrors the effect of nfs_cancel_remove_inode() for
O_DIRECT.
