f2fs: fix to do sanity check on node blkaddr in truncate_node()
Affects the Linux kernel f2fs filesystem from 3.8.0 before 6.6.64, 6.7.0 before 6.11.11, and 6.12.0 before 6.12.2, when the filesystem image is corrupted. Fixed in those stable kernel releases.

Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix to do sanity check on node blkaddr in truncate_node() syzbot reports a f2fs bug as below: ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at fs/f2fs/segment.c:2534!

Questions about CVE-2024-56692
What does this mean?
On a corrupted f2fs filesystem image, the block address stored in a NAT entry may be invalid. When the kernel uses that address, it can crash with a system panic in f2fs_invalidate_blocks().Source: git.kernel.org
Am I affected, and how do I check?
The affected Linux kernel ranges are 3.8.0 before 6.6.64, 6.7.0 before 6.11.11, and 6.12.0 before 6.12.2. To check a system, run uname -r to see the kernel version, and check whether it uses f2fs. The problem needs a corrupted filesystem image.Source: git.kernel.org
What should I do about it?
Update the kernel to 6.6.64, 6.11.11, 6.12.2, or a later release in the matching branch.Source: git.kernel.org
Is it being exploited?
It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked.Source: cve.now feed data
