Synopsis
The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.Description
The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.- f2fs: split initial and dynamic conditions for extent_cache Let's allocate the extent_cache tree without dynamic conditions to avoid a missing condition causing a panic as below. # create a file w/ a compressed flag # disable the compression # panic while updating extent_cache F2FS-fs (dm-64): Swapfile: last extent is not aligned to section F2FS-fs (dm-64): Swapfile (3) is not align to section: 1) creat(), 2) ioctl(F2FS_IOC_SET_PIN_FILE), 3) fallocate(2097152 * N) Adding 124996k swap on ./swap-file.
