NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-libbpf package and not the kernel-libbpf package as distributed by Amazon-Linux. See How to fix? for Amazon-Linux:2023 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

exfat: fix missing shutdown check

xfstests generic/730 test failed because after deleting the device that still had dirty data, the file could still be read without returning an error. The reason is the missing shutdown check in ->read_iter.

I also noticed that shutdown checks were missing from ->write_iter, ->splice_read, and ->mmap. This commit adds shutdown checks to all of them.
