Summary

[none]

Details

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

ovl: fix warning in ovlcreatereal()

Syzbot triggered the following warning in ovlworkdircreate() -> ovlcreatereal():

if (!err && WARN_ON(!newdentry->d_inode)) {

The reason is that the cgroup2 filesystem returns from mkdir without instantiating the new dentry.

Weird filesystems such as this will be rejected by overlayfs at a later stage during setup, but to prevent such a warning, call ovlmkdirreal() directly from ovlworkdircreate() and reject this case early.
