Default Factor roof rails rust repair

Not sure if this should go here or Fabrication but does anyone know how I can stop this from spreading and repair it? It's like this at the front a rear mounting points of the factory roof rails.

remove rail, sand, prime and paint.
if there's a hole, weld in a patch.

there's really nothing else you can do.

Drop your headliner and check how bad the under side is.
