CVE-2026-89840

HIGH CVSS 3.1: 7.1 EPSS 0.17%
Updated Oct 03, 2026
Linux
Parameter Value
CVSS 7.1 (HIGH)
Affected Versions 4.8 — 7.3-rc1
Fixed In 6.18.53
Vendor Linux
Public PoC No

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.
