CVE-2023-54125CVE-2023-54125
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: Return error for inconsistent extended attributes
ntfs_read_ea is called when we want to read extended attributes. There
are some sanity checks for the validity of the EAs. However, it fails to
return a proper error code for the inconsistent attributes, which might
lead to unpredicted memory accesses after return.
