CVE-2026-63820
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix missing read bio submission on large folio error f2fs_read_data_large_folio() can keep a read bio across multiple readahead folios. If a later folio hits an error before any of its blocks are added to the bio, folio_in_bio is false and the current error path returns immediately after ending that folio. This can leave the bio accumulated for earlier folios unsubmitted. Those folios then never receive read completion, and readers can wait indefinitely on the locked folios. Route errors through the common out path so any pending bio is submitted before returning. Stop consuming more readahead folios once an error is seen, and only wait on and clear the current folio when it was actually added to the bio.
No public exploitation has been reported so far. No distribution fix is listed yet; apply vendor mitigations and monitor.
Recommended action: Track your distribution's security tracker and apply the fix as soon as it ships.
Affected & fixed versions by distribution
Versions are the native distribution strings (backport-aware): RHEL/Debian/SUSE backport fixes, so compare with the distro version comparator (dpkg / rpm / vercmp), not the upstream version.
No affected package in the tracked watchlist yet (Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, SUSE, Red Hat...). Triage may still be pending.
