Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix use-after-free on inode when scanning root during em shrinking
At btrfs_scan_root() we are accessing the inode's root (and fs_info) in a
call to btrfs_fs_closing() after we have scheduled the inode for a delayed
iput, and that can result in a use-after-free on the inode in case the
cleaner kthread does the iput before we dereference the inode in the call
to btrfs_fs_closing().
Fix this by using the fs_info stored already in a local variable instead
of doing inode->root->fs_info.
A flaw was found in the btrfs file system component of the Linux kernel. A local attacker with low privileges could exploit a use-after-free vulnerability during the scanning of the root inode while shrinking the extent tree. This flaw could lead to a system crash, denial of service, or potentially arbitrary code execution or privilege escalation.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
