    "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix resolving backrefs for inline extent followed by prealloc If a file consists of an inline extent followed by a regular or prealloc extent, then a legitimate attempt to resolve a logical address in the non-inline region will result in add_all_parents reading the invalid offset field of the inline extent. If the inline extent item is placed in the leaf eb s.t. it is the first item, attempting to access the offset field will not only be meaningless, it will go past the end of the eb and cause this panic: [17.626048] BTRFS warning (device dm-2): bad eb member end: ptr 0x3fd4 start 30834688 member offset 16377 size 8 [17.631693] general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0x5088000000000: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI [17.635041] CPU: 2 PID: 1267 Comm: btrfs Not tainted 5.12.0-07246-g75175d5adc74-dirty #199 [17.637969] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.14.0-0-g155821a1990b-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 [17.641995] RIP: 0010:btrfs_get_64+0xe7/0x110 [17.649890] RSP: 0018:ffffc90001f73a08 EFLAGS: 00010202 [17.651652] RAX: 0000000000000001 RBX: ffff88810c42d000 RCX: 0000000000000000 [17.653921] RDX: 0005088000000000 RSI: ffffc90001f73a0f RDI: 0000000000000001 [17.656174] RBP: 0000000000000ff9 R08: 0000000000000007 R09: c0000000fffeffff [17.658441] R10: ffffc90001f73790 R11: ffffc90001f73788 R12: ffff888106afe918 [17.661070] R13: 0000000000003fd4 R14: 0000000000003f6f R15:",
