In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: avoid calling post_write_mst_fixup() for invalid index_block
ntfs_icx_ib_sync_write() calls post_write_mst_fixup() when ntfs_ib_write() returns an error, intending to restore the buffer after a failed write.
However, ntfs_ib_write() returns an error immediately if pre_write_mst_fixup() validation fails. The caller, ntfs_icx_ib_sync_write(), interprets any error as a write failure requiring rollback. It does not differentiate between I/O errors and validation failures, and calls post_write_mst_fixup() anyway.
Since post_write_mst_fixup() assumes that the index_block contents is correct, it doesn't perform the boundary checks, which results in out-of-bounds memory access.
An attacker can craft a malicious NTFS image with:
- large index_block.usa_ofs offset, pointing outside the ntfs_record
- index_block.usa_count = 0, causing integer underflow
- or index_block.usa_count larger than actual number of secto

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NTFS file system driver. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing a specially crafted NTFS image, leading to out-of-bounds memory access. This memory corruption can cause the system to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
