fs/ntfs3: Validate buffer length while parsing index
CVE: CVE-2022-50442
Component: kernel
Severity: None
Release date: 2022-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

fs/ntfs3: Validate buffer length while parsing index

indx_read is called when we have some NTFS directory operations that
need more information from the index buffers. This adds a sanity check
to make sure the returned index buffer length is legit, or we may have
some out-of-bound memory accesses.
