        Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: unset reloc control if transaction commit fails in prepare_to_relocate()
In btrfs_relocate_block_group(), the rc is allocated.  Then
btrfs_relocate_block_group() calls
relocate_block_group()
  prepare_to_relocate()
    set_reloc_control()
that assigns rc to the variable fs_info->reloc_ctl. When
prepare_to_relocate() returns, it calls
btrfs_commit_transaction()
  btrfs_start_dirty_block_groups()
    btrfs_alloc_path()
      kmem_cache_zalloc()
which may fail for example (or other errors could happen). When the
failure occurs, btrfs_relocate_block_group() detects the error and frees
rc and doesn't set fs_info->reloc_ctl to NULL. After that, in
btrfs_init_reloc_root(), rc is retrieved from fs_info->reloc_ctl and
then used, which may cause a use-after-free bug.
This possible bug can be triggered by calling btrfs_ioctl_balance()
before calling btrfs_ioctl_defrag().
To fix this possible bug, in prepare_to_relocate(), check if
btrfs_commit_transaction() fails. If the failure occurs,
unset_reloc_control() is called to set fs_info->reloc_ctl to NULL.
The error log in our fault-injection testing is shown as follows:

En btrfs_relocate_block_group(), se asigna el rc. Luego, btrfs_relocate_block_group() llama a relocate_block_group() prepare_to_relocate() set_reloc_control() que asigna rc a la variable fs_info-\u0026gt;reloc_ctl. Cuando prepare_to_relocate() retorna, llama a btrfs_commit_transaction() btrfs_start_dirty_block_groups() btrfs_alloc_path() kmem_cache_zalloc() que puede fallar, por ejemplo (o podr\u00edan ocurrir otros errores). Cuando ocurre el fallo, btrfs_relocate_block_group() detecta el error y libera rc y no establece fs_info-\u0026gt;reloc_ctl en NULL. Posteriormente, en btrfs_init_reloc_root(), se recupera rc de fs_info-\u0026gt;reloc_ctl y se utiliza, lo que podr\u00eda causar un error de Use-After-Free. Este posible error se puede activar llamando a btrfs_ioctl_balance() antes de llamar a btrfs_ioctl_defrag(). Para corregir este posible error, en prepare_to_relocate(), compruebe si btrfs_commit_transaction() falla.
