| Doc Text: |
A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's XFS filesystem scrub/repair code. In xrep_revalidate_allocbt(), when revalidating both the BNOBT and CNTBT btrees, if the first btree validation fails during cross-reference, the second btree cursor is nullified. The code then attempts to revalidate the second btree using the NULL cursor, causing a kernel crash.
