CVE-2023-54002
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix assertion of exclop condition when starting balance
Balance as exclusive state is compatible with paused balance and device add, which makes some things more complicated. The assertion of valid states when starting from paused balance needs to take into account two more states, the combinations can be hit when there are several threads racing to start balance and device add. This won't typically happen when the commands are started from command line.
Scenario 1: With exclusive_operation state == BTRFS_EXCLOP_NONE.
Concurrently adding multiple devices to the same mount point and btrfs_exclop_finish executed finishes before assertion in btrfs_exclop_balance, exclusive_operation will changed to BTRFS_EXCLOP_NONE state which lead to assertion failed:

Scenario 2: With exclusive_operation state == BTRFS_EXCLOP_BALANCE_PAUSED.
Concurrently adding multiple devices to the same mount point and btrfs_exclop_balance executed finish before the latter thread execute assertion in btrfs_exclop_balance, exclusive_operation will changed to BTRFS_EXCLOP_BALANCE_PAUSED state which lead to assertion failed:
An example of the failed assertion is below, which shows that the paused balance is also needed to be checked.
