In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

btrfs: zoned: fix use-after-free in do_zone_finish()

Shinichiro reported the following use-after-free triggered by the device
replace operation in fstests btrfs/070.

BTRFS info (device nullb1): scrub: finished on devid 1 with status: 0

This UAF happens because we’re accessing stale zone information of a
already removed btrfs_device in do_zone_finish().

The sequence of events is as follows:

btrfs_dev_replace_start
btrfs_scrub_dev
btrfs_dev_replace_finishing

btrfs_dev_replace_update_device_in_mapping_tree <-- devices replaced
btrfs_rm_dev_replace_free_srcdev
 btrfs_free_device                              <-- device freed

cleaner_kthread
btrfs_delete_unused_bgs
btrfs_zone_finish
do_zone_finish <— refers the freed device

The reason for this is that we’re using a
