CVE-2021-47072

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix removed dentries still existing after log is synced When we move one inode from one directory to another and both the inode and its previous parent directory were logged before, we are not supposed to have the dentry for the old parent if we have a power failure after the log is synced. Only the new dentry is supposed to exist. Generally this works correctly, however there is a scenario where this is not currently working, because the old parent of the file/directory that was moved is not authoritative for a range that includes the dir index and dir item keys of the old dentry. This case is better explained with the following example and reproducer: # The test requires a very specific layout of keys and items in the # fs/subvolume btree to trigger the bug. So we want to make sure that # on whatever platform we are, we have the same leaf/node size. # # Currently in btrfs the node/leaf size can not be small...
