In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hfsplus: pretend special inodes as regular files
Since commit af153bb63a33 ("vfs: catch invalid modes in mayopen()") requires any inode be one of SIFDIR/SIFLNK/SIFREG/SIFCHR/SIFBLK/ SIFIFO/SIFSOCK type, use S_IFREG for special inodes.
