CVE-2024-47679 is a race condition vulnerability in the Linux kernel's virtual file system (vfs) layer involving concurrent operations on inodes. The flaw occurs due to a race between evice_inodes() and find_inode() combined with iput(), which can lead to simultaneous eviction of the same inode by two threads. This race can trigger kernel BUG conditions related to inode state flags. The issue has been fixed by rechecking the inode reference count after acquiring the inode lock to prevent concurrent eviction.
