Threats tagged 'ghsa-9wgm-cmcc-8467'

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's virtual file system (VFS) handling could cause memory leaks of disconnected dentries during unmount operations. This occurs when certain directory dentries created by open_by_handle_at() are not properly marked as disconnected, leading to inconsistent state and potential resource leaks. The issue can result in the "Busy inodes after unmount" problem, affecting system stability and resource management.
