Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: abort transaction on unexpected eb generation at btrfs_copy_root() If we find an unexpected generation for the extent buffer we are cloning at btrfs_copy_root(), we just WARN_ON() and don't error out and abort the transaction, meaning we allow to persist metadata with an unexpected generation. Instead of warning only, abort the transaction and return -EUCLEAN.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 2.6.29 < 6.1.149) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.103) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.12.44) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.13 < 6.16.4) • debian debian linux 11.0
