Title
reiserfs: Avoid touching renamed directory if parent does not change
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: reiserfs: Avoid touching renamed directory if parent does not change The VFS will not be locking moved directory if its parent does not change. Change reiserfs rename code to avoid touching renamed directory if its parent does not change as without locking that can corrupt the filesystem.
