What it is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

cifs: call pagecache_isize_extended() in cifs_setsize() when extending

cifs_setsize() calls truncate_pagecache() but skips

pagecache_isize_extended() on extension. truncate_setsize() shows

the correct pattern:

i_size_write(inode, newsize);

if (newsize > oldsize)

pagecache_isize_extended(inode, oldsize, newsize);

truncate_pagecache(inode, newsize);

pagecache_isize_extended() zeroes the tail of the page straddling old

EOF. Without it, dirty bytes in that region can be written back to

the server, exposing stale data in the newly extended range.
