Does this affect you?

It affects Linux. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cifs: use cifs_invalidate_cache() in cifs_do_truncate() for O_TRUNC cifs_do_truncate() is invoked from cifs_open() without i_rwsem, so it cannot use cifs_resize_file_locked() to perform a proper fscache cookie resize. Instead, add cifs_invalidate_cache() after cifs_setsize(). cifs_invalidate_cache() calls fscache_invalidate(), which works without holding i_rwsem: it unconditionally increments inval_counter and sets FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ, ensuring that stale cached data is not served once the cookie is later activated by fscache_use_cookie(). Truncation to zero leaves no valid cached data, making invalidation the correct semantic here.
