No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

btrfs: tracepoints: get correct superblock from dentry in event btrfs_sync_file()

If overlay is used on top of btrfs, dentry->d_sb translates to overlay's super block and fsid assignment will lead to a crash.

Use file_inode(file)->i_sb to always get btrfs_sb.
