CVE-2026-72204Source published Source updated
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntfs: centalize $INDEX_ROOT header validation Add a dedicated helper to perform stricter validation of $INDEX_ROOT and use it for both directory inodes and named index inodes. This keeps the root size and header geometry checks consistent across both read paths. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NTFS file system driver. This vulnerability arises from insufficient validation of the `$INDEX_ROOT` header, which is crucial for managing directory and file indexes. An attacker could potentially craft a specially malformed NTFS file system. Processing this malformed file system could lead to file system corruption or a denial of service (DoS) condition, impacting system availability. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5…
