      "title": "ntfs3: bound to_move in indx_insert_into_root before hdr_insert_head",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nntfs3: bound to_move in indx_insert_into_root before hdr_insert_head\n\nindx_insert_into_root() promotes a full resident $INDEX_ROOT into\n$INDEX_ALLOCATION and copies all non-last resident root entries into\na newly allocated INDEX_BUFFER via hdr_insert_head(). The source\nbyte count 'to_move' is summed from the on-disk resident entry sizes\nand is independent of the destination buffer size, which comes from\nroot->index_block_size (via indx->index_bits).\n\nA crafted NTFS image that keeps a valid, full resident root but\nshrinks root->index_block_size down to 512 after the root has been\npopulated makes hdr_insert_head() memcpy attacker-controlled resident\nentry bytes past the end of the kmalloc(1u << indx->index_bits)\nallocation returned by indx_new(). For a 512-byte destination and a\nresident root whose non-last entries total 560 bytes, the memcpy\noverruns by 120 bytes and a following memmove extends the highest\nwritten offset to 136 bytes past the allocation. The overflow bytes\nare a direct copy of on-disk entries (via kmemdup), so they are\nfully attacker-controlled.\n\nThe write is reachable from unprivileged open(O_CREAT) on a mounted\ncrafted NTFS image: a single sufficiently long create in a directory\nwhose resident root is already full forces root promotion and\ntriggers the copy.\n\nThis is a controlled out-of-bounds write of 120-136 bytes past a\nkmalloc(index_block_size) allocation, with attacker-controlled\ncontent. It is a bounded adjacent-heap corruption primitive; it is\nnot an arbitrary-address write. Successful exploitation into a named\nvictim object depends on the surrounding slab layout.\n\nReject the copy at the sink. The destination's INDEX_HDR already\nreports hdr_total (the payload capacity of the new buffer) and\nhdr_used (the bytes already consumed by the terminal END entry\ninstalled by indx_new()); require that to_move fits in the remaining\npayload before calling hdr_insert_head(). On mismatch, fail with\n-EINVAL and mark the filesystem as having a detected on-disk\ninconsistency, which is the same behaviour as the surrounding\nvalidation in this function.",
