CVE-2019-19377

Publication date 29 November 2019

Last updated 24 July 2024


Ubuntu priority

Cvss 3 Severity Score

7.8 · High

Score breakdown

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.

From the Ubuntu Security Team

It was discovered that the btrfs implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly detect that a block was marked dirty in some situations. An attacker could use this to specially craft a file system image that, when unmounted, could cause a denial of service (system crash).
