UBUNTU-CVE-2026-43117: Medium severity ubuntu/linux-azure vulnerability

Q: Which systems are exposed to this issue?

Systems using an affected Ubuntu Linux kernel where OverlayFS is layered on top of a Btrfs filesystem are exposed to the crash condition. The listed Ubuntu kernel packages include linux, linux-azure, linux-aws-fips, linux-azure-fips, linux-fips, linux-gcp-fips, linux-gcp, and linux-oracle.

Q: What access does an attacker need?

The severity vector indicates local access and low privileges are required. No user interaction is required.

Q: What is the expected impact?

The flaw can cause a crash when the Btrfs sync-file tracepoint uses an OverlayFS superblock instead of the underlying Btrfs superblock. The provided severity vector identifies availability as the affected security property, with no indicated confidentiality or integrity impact.

Published May 6, 2026

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: tracepoints: get correct superblock from dentry in event btrfssyncfile() If overlay is used on top of btrfs, dentry->dsb translates to overlay's super block and fsid assignment will lead to a crash. Use fileinode(file)->isb to always get btrfssb.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which systems are exposed to this issue?

Systems using an affected Ubuntu Linux kernel where OverlayFS is layered on top of a Btrfs filesystem are exposed to the crash condition. The listed Ubuntu kernel packages include linux, linux-azure, linux-aws-fips, linux-azure-fips, linux-fips, linux-gcp-fips, linux-gcp, and linux-oracle.

What access does an attacker need?

The severity vector indicates local access and low privileges are required. No user interaction is required.

What is the expected impact?

The flaw can cause a crash when the Btrfs sync-file tracepoint uses an OverlayFS superblock instead of the underlying Btrfs superblock. The provided severity vector identifies availability as the affected security property, with no indicated confidentiality or integrity impact.
