    Medium [CVE-2026-74572] fix deadlock between metadata writeback and transaction commit

    CVE-2026-74572Source published Source updated

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: zoned: fix deadlock between metadata writeback and transaction commit When writing out metadata extent buffers in a zoned filesystem, btree_writepages() holds fs_info->zoned_meta_io_lock across the whole writeback loop, including the call to btrfs_check_meta_write_pointer() -> check_bg_is_active(). For the tree-log block group, check_bg_is_active() may fail to activate the zone and fall back to btrfs_zone_finish_one_bg() to free an active zone. That path waits for the running transaction to commit while still holding zoned_meta_io_lock, but the committer needs that same lock to write out the tree extents, so the two tasks deadlock: Task A (kworker, metadata writeback) Task B (fsstress, transaction commit)…
