If rb_simple_insert() finds an existing entry, it\nreturns the existing rb_node and leaves the newly allocated node unlinked.\n\nThe error path then returns -EEXIST without freeing the new node.  Since\nthe node was never inserted into reloc_root_tree, the later cleanup in\nput_reloc_control() cannot find it either.\n\nFree the newly allocated node before returning -EEXIST.\n\nThe callers currently assert that -EEXIST should not happen, so this is a\ndefensive cleanup for an unexpected duplicate insert path.  If the path is\never reached, the local allocation should still be released."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/btrfs/relocation.c"],"versions":[{"version":"57a304cfd43b2b4a5b44b8f5dc026abb34183068","lessThan":"29d9746812d8b7c37d594f484e994fd552c3ec33","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"57a304cfd43b2b4a5b44b8f5dc026abb34183068","lessThan":"b7c5b8e1d5f0779dfbabc3068b7ac0f12e53b3a8","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"57a304cfd43b2b4a5b44b8f5dc026abb34183068","lessThan":"92bedc0455552b42ada1a1f42b0e3a8593cdfccc","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"57a304cfd43b2b4a5b44b8f5dc026abb34183068","lessThan":"14a8be9428435ee17f17fae7991215c246b7fd43","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"57a304cfd43b2b4a5b44b8f5dc026abb34183068","lessThan":"797dc567146c7e3c4f8d9680e4fbc76e0a6d9151","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"57a304cfd43b2b4a5b44b8f5dc026abb34183068","lessThan":"ae0629ff9ccb836416ada129f4edc7efea6eaaad","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"57a304cfd43b2b4a5b44b8f5dc026abb34183068","lessThan":"6a8269b6459ed870a8156c106a0f597383907872","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/btrfs/relocation.c"],"versions":[{"version":"5.13","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"5.13","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.216","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.183","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.148","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.101","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.42","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1.6","lessThanOrEqual":"7.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.13","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.216"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.13","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.183"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.13","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.148"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.13","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.101"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.13","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.42"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.13","versionEndExcluding":"7.1.6"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.13","versionEndExcluding":"7.2"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/29d9746812d8b7c37d594f484e994fd552c3ec33"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b7c5b8e1d5f0779dfbabc3068b7ac0f12e53b3a8"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/92bedc0455552b42ada1a1f42b0e3a8593cdfccc"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/14a8be9428435ee17f17fae7991215c246b7fd43"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/797dc567146c7e3c4f8d9680e4fbc76e0a6d9151"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ae0629ff9ccb836416ada129f4edc7efea6eaaad"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6a8269b6459ed870a8156c106a0f597383907872"}],"title":"btrfs: free mapping node on duplicate reloc root insert","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
