Description
In the Linux kernel 5.0.21, mounting a crafted btrfs filesystem image, performing some operations, and unmounting can lead to a use-after-free in btrfs_queue_work in fs/btrfs/async-thread.c.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of the BTRFS file system. A local attacker, with the ability to mount a file system, can create a use-after-free memory fault after the file system has been unmounted. This may lead to memory corruption or privilege escalation.
