Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
The Linux kernel contains a flaw within the btrfs subsystem related to extent map handling during read operations. Specifically, a use-after-free condition can occur when processing a chunk stored on a missing device, particularly when the degraded mount option is absent. This issue arises from freeing the extent map without first storing the error code, potentially leading to memory corruption.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
