It sets up the remapping for the\noverwrite_bio but then drops it immediately without submission, causing\nwrite operations to hang.\n\nFix by adding a new invalidate_committed() continuation that submits\nthe remapped writes to the cache origin after metadata commit completes,\nwhile using the overwrite_endio hook to ensure proper completion\nsequencing. This maintains existing coherency. Also improve error\nhandling in invalidate_complete() to preserve the original error status\ninstead of using bio_io_error() unconditionally.","published":"2026-06-24T17:17:19.000Z","lastModified":"2026-07-21T17:36:23.000Z","status":"Analyzed","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":5.5,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"},"cwe":[],"affected":["linux/linux kernel"],"epss":{"score":0.00128,"percentile":0.02432,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.13%).
