In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: prevent copying too big compressed lzo segment
Compressed length can be corrupted to be a lot larger than memory we have allocated for buffer. This will cause memcpy in copy_compressed_segment to write outside of allocated memory.
This mostly results in stuck read syscall but sometimes when using btrfs send can get #GP
