Subject: CVE-2024-26697: nilfs2: fix data corruption in dsync block recovery for small block sizes

Description
===========

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

nilfs2: fix data corruption in dsync block recovery for small block sizes

The helper function nilfs_recovery_copy_block() of
nilfs_recovery_dsync_blocks(), which recovers data from logs created by
data sync writes during a mount after an unclean shutdown, incorrectly
calculates the on-page offset when copying repair data to the file's page
cache.  In environments where the block size is smaller than the page
size, this flaw can cause data corruption and leak uninitialized memory
bytes during the recovery process.

Fix these issues by correcting this byte offset calculation on the page.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-26697 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
