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

ocfs2/cluster: keep heartbeat local node stable

o2nm_node_local_store() handles local=0 by stopping o2net and setting
cl_local_node to O2NM_INVALID_NODE_NUM, but it leaves cl_has_local set.
That stale state makes o2nm_this_node() return 255, blocks a later local=1
attempt with -EBUSY, and can feed 255 to heartbeat users that call
o2nm_this_node() dynamically.

Clearing cl_has_local is required when the local node is reset. But
heartbeat threads can still be running at that point. They pin the local
node config item at startup, yet o2hb_do_disk_heartbeat() and thread
teardown re-read o2nm_this_node() for the local slot and for
o2nm_undepend_this_node(). Once local=0 has cleared the live local-node
state, those dynamic reads return O2NM_MAX_NODES, which is also the
invalid node number 255.

Store the local node number in the heartbeat region when the region
starts. Use that stable node for heartbeat slot writes/checks,
negotiation messages, and the final configfs undepend. Stop the heartbeat
loop when the current local node no longer matches the stored node, and
clear cl_has_local together with cl_local_node in the local=0 path so
nodemanager state matches node removal.
