Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> btrfs: abort in rename_exchange if we fail to insert the second ref<br /> <br /> Error injection stress uncovered a problem where we&amp;#39;d leave a dangling<br /> inode ref if we failed during a rename_exchange. This happens because<br /> we insert the inode ref for one side of the rename, and then for the<br /> other side. If this second inode ref insert fails we&amp;#39;ll leave the first<br /> one dangling and leave a corrupt file system behind. Fix this by<br /> aborting if we did the insert for the first inode ref.
