Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The Linux kernel f2fs filesystem from 4.7 before the fixes can hang in an endless loop during fsync when a truncate runs at the same time. The source gives few details on who can trigger it. Upgrade to 6.1.191, 6.6.160, 6.12.114, 6.18.51, or a later release in those series.

Written 12 Nov 2026.
