Bug#1057843: Guidelines for affected users
Are there any guidelines for affected users who already updated before
they got the warning?
Interesting questions for affected users:
- Is it safe to assume that other filesystems (like BTRFS) are not
affected?
- Does this cause filesystem corruption or only file corruption?
- Does this affect metadata or only file contents?
- Is there a way to detect corrupted files?
- If metadata is not affected, is it safe to assume that all files with
a modification date older than the update are fine?
- Does it help to shut down services (such as Apache) or the whole
machine until the fix is available?
