Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: don't BUG_ON an invalid journal dinode
[BUG]
A fuzzed OCFS2 image can corrupt the current slot journal dinode while
mount is still in progress. The mount path first reports the invalid
journal block and then crashes in shutdown:
kernel BUG at fs/ocfs2/journal.c:1034!
Oops: invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI
RIP: 0010:ocfs2_journal_toggle_dirty+0x2d6/0x340 fs/ocfs2/journal.c:1034

[CAUSE]
ocfs2_journal_toggle_dirty() used to return -EIO when journal->j_bh no
longer contained a valid dinode, because the startup and shutdown paths
already handled that failure. Commit 10995aa2451a
("ocfs2: Morph the haphazard OCFS2_IS_VALID_DINODE() checks.") changed
the check to a BUG_ON() under the assumption that the journal dinode had
already been validated. That turns an unexpected invalid journal dinode
during mount teardown into a kernel crash instead of a normal mount
failure.
[FIX]
Replace the BUG_ON() with WARN_ON() and return -EIO. This keeps the
invariant warning for debugging, but restores the original behavior of
failing startup or shutdown cleanly instead of panicking the kernel.
