In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: take commit root semaphore when iterating in mark_block_group_to_copy()
mark_block_group_to_copy() iterates over the commit root with skip_locking=true. A concurrent transaction commit can swap and free the commit root during iteration, causing use-after-free when accessing extent buffers.
Fix it by using path->need_commit_sem to protect the commit root search.
