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

erofs: fix buffer copy overflow of ztailpacking feature

I got some KASAN report as below:

[ 46.959738] ================================================================== [ 46.960430] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in z_erofs_shifted_transform+0x2bd/0x370 [ 46.960430] Read of size 4074 at addr ffff8880300c2f8e by task fssum/188 ...

The root cause is that the tail pcluster won't be a complete filesystem block anymore. So if ztailpacking is used, the second part of an uncompressed tail pcluster may not be ``rq->pageofs_out``.
