Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - btrfs: release path before iget_failed() in btrfs_read_locked_inode() In btrfs_read_locked_inode() if we     fail to lookup the inode, we jump to the 'out' label with a path that has a read locked leaf and then we     call iget_failed(). This can result in a ABBA deadlock, since iget_failed() triggers inode eviction and     that causes the release of the delayed inode, which must lock the delayed inode's mutex, and a task     updating a delayed inode starts by taking the node's mutex and then modifying the inode's subvolume btree.
