Description

CVE-2026-63813 is a high-severity vulnerability in the Linux kernel related to the f2fs filesystem. It involves a race condition in the move_data_block function that can cause kernel panics when the f2fs partition is nearly full. The issue arises from improper handling of page cache folios leading to list corruption and kernel crashes.
