CVE-2022-50841CVE-2022-50841
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: Add overflow check for attribute size
The offset addition could overflow and pass the used size check given an
attribute with very large size (e.g., 0xffffff7f) while parsing MFT
attributes. This could lead to out-of-bound memory R/W if we try to
access the next attribute derived by Add2Ptr(attr, asize)
