Subject: CVE-2025-21830: landlock: Handle weird files

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

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

landlock: Handle weird files

A corrupted filesystem (e.g. bcachefs) might return weird files.
Instead of throwing a warning and allowing access to such file, treat
them as regular files.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2025-21830 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:
