Description
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
