CVE-2024-58095
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: jfs: add check read-only before txBeginAnon() call Added a read-only check before calling `txBeginAnon` in `extAlloc` and `extRecord`.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.20%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: jfs: add check read-only before txBeginAnon() call Added a read-only check before calling `txBeginAnon` in `extAlloc` and `extRecord`. This prevents modification attempts on a read-only mounted filesystem, avoiding potential errors or crashes.
