Source: linux Version: 5.2.9-2 Severity: critical Tags: upstream patch Justification: causes serious data loss
Hi. There were some reports over the last weeks from users on linux-btrfs which suffered from catastrophic btrfs corruption. The bug which is apparently a regression introduced in 5.2 has now been found[0] an a patch is available[1]. Since it's unclear how long it will take to be part of a stable release and when Debian will pick this up in unstable, please consider to cherry-pick the patch. Thanks, Chris.
