Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
btrfs: fix iteration of extrefs during log replay<br />
<br />
At __inode_add_ref() when processing extrefs, if we jump into the next<br />
label we have an undefined value of victim_name.len, since we haven&#39;t<br />
initialized it before we did the goto. This results in an invalid memory<br />
access in the next iteration of the loop since victim_name.len was not<br />
initialized to the length of the name of the current extref.<br />
<br />
Fix this by initializing victim_name.len with the current extref&#39;s name<br />
length.
