Fix a spelling error by the way.\n\nSame problem in ext4_ext_handle_unwritten_extents(). Since 'path' is only\nused in ext4_ext_show_leaf(), remove 'path' and use *ppath directly.\n\nThis issue is triggered only when EXT_DEBUG is defined and therefore does\nnot affect functionality."

      "value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: ext4: evitar use after free en ext4_ext_show_leaf() En ext4_find_extent(), path puede liberarse por error o reasignarse, por lo que el uso de un *ppath previamente guardado puede haberse liberado y, por lo tanto, puede activar el use after free, de la siguiente manera: ext4_split_extent path = *ppath; ext4_split_extent_at(ppath) path = ext4_find_extent(ppath) ext4_split_extent_at(ppath) // ext4_find_extent no puede liberar path // pero la puesta a cero tiene \u00e9xito ext4_ext_show_leaf(inode, path) eh = path[depth].p_hdr // use after free de path !!! De manera similar a ext4_split_extent_at(), usamos *ppath directamente como entrada para ext4_ext_show_leaf(). Por cierto, corrige un error ortogr\u00e1fico. El mismo problema en ext4_ext_handle_unwritten_extents(). Dado que 'path' solo se usa en ext4_ext_show_leaf(), elimine 'path' y use *ppath directamente. Este problema se activa solo cuando se define EXT_DEBUG y, por lo tanto, no afecta la funcionalidad."
