In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: only count successfully cleared runs when freeing clusters
ntfs_cluster_free_from_rl_nolock() adds a run's length to nr_freed
whenever the error bookkeeping condition is false, which includes
cases where ntfs_bitmap_clear_run() actually failed - e.g. a second
run failing with the same errno as an earlier one, or any failure
after a non-ENOMEM error was already recorded. Since a failed
ntfs_bitmap_clear_run() rolls back its partial modifications, no
bits were cleared for that run, yet its length still inflates
vol->free_clusters, corrupting statfs output and the allocator's
free space gate.
Only count runs whose bitmap clear succeeded.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NTFS (New Technology File System) driver. When errors occur while releasing storage blocks, the driver mistakenly counts failed release operations as successfully freed space. A local user could exploit this behavior to cause file system state corruption and a potential Denial of Service (DoS) by skewing available storage calculations and triggering allocation failures.
