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

nilfs2: prevent use of deleted inode

syzbot reported a WARNING in nilfsrmdir. [1]

Because the inode bitmap is corrupted, an inode with an inode number that should exist as a ".nilfs" file was reassigned by nilfsmkdir for "file0", causing an inode duplication during execution. And this causes an underflow of inlink in rmdir operations.

The inode is used twice by the same task to unmount and remove directories ".nilfs" and "file0", it trigger warning in nilfsrmdir.

Avoid to this issue, check inlink in nilfsiget(), if it is 0, it means that this inode has been deleted, and iput is executed to reclaim it.
