Description
===========

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

xfs: don't wrap around quota ids in dqiterate

LOLLM noticed that q_id is an unsigned 32-bit variable.  If it happens
to be set to XFS_DQ_ID_MAX due to a filesystem that actually has a dquot
for ID_MAX, then this addition will truncate to zero and the iteration
starts over.  Fix this by casting to u64.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-64256 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
