      "title": "kernfs: fix xattr race condition with multiple superblocks",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nkernfs: fix xattr race condition with multiple superblocks\n\nMultiple superblocks with different namespaces can share the same\nkernfs_node when kernfs_test_super() finds a matching root but\ndifferent namespace. This means multiple inodes from different\nsuperblocks can reference the same kernfs_node->iattr->xattrs\nstructure.\n\nThe VFS layer only holds per-inode locks during xattr operations,\nwhich is insufficient to serialize concurrent xattr modifications on\nthe shared kernfs_node. This can lead to race conditions in\nsimple_xattr_set() where the lookup->replace/remove sequence is not\natomic with respect to operations from other superblocks.\n\nFix this by protecting xattr operations with the existing hashed\nkernfs_locks->open_file_mutex[] array, which is already used to\nprotect per-node open file data. The hashed mutex array provides\nscalable per-node serialization (scaled by CPU count, up to 1024 locks\non 32+ CPU systems) with zero memory overhead.\n\nChanges:\n- Rename open_file_mutex[] to node_mutex[] to reflect dual purpose\n- Add kernfs_node_lock_ptr() and kernfs_node_lock() helpers\n- Protect simple_xattr_set() calls in kernfs_xattr_set() and\n  kernfs_vfs_user_xattr_set() with the hashed mutex\n- Update file.c to use new helpers via compatibility wrappers\n- Update documentation to explain the extended lock usage",
