# CVE-2026-98907: btrfs: protect sb_write_pointer() with invalidate lock CVE-2026-98907 is fixed in 39 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-98907, released October 24, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-98907 - Priority: High - CVSS: 7.1 (Moderate) - EPSS: 0.0016 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Oct 12, 2026 - Vendor advisory: https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-98907 ## Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: protect sb_write_pointer() with invalidate lock sb_write_pointer() reads the super block from the block device page cache using read_cache_page_gfp(). This has the same race with BLKBSZSET as the one fixed by commit 3f29d661e568 ("btrfs: sync read disk super and set block size"). Take the mapping invalidate lock around read_cache_page_gfp() to serialize the read against block size changes. ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released |
