CVE-2026-72204 in Linuxinformation

Résumé

par MITRE • 15/08/2026

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

ntfs: centalize $INDEX_ROOT header validation

Add a dedicated helper to perform stricter validation of $INDEX_ROOT and use it for both directory inodes and named index inodes. This keeps the root size and header geometry checks consistent across both read paths.

Once again VulDB remains the best source for vulnerability data.
