CVE-2026-89785 in Linux
요약
\~에 의해 MITRE • 2026. 09. 16.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: fix out-of-bounds read of INDEX_ROOT in reparse/objid init
ntfs_reparse_init() and ntfs_objid_init() parse the index root of the $Extend/$Reparse and $Extend/$ObjId metafiles (the INDEX_ROOT attributes named $R and $O). They read its type and rule fields through resident_data(), which does not check that the resident attribute is large enough to hold them.
mi_enum_attr() accepts a resident attribute with data_off == asize and data_size == 0. For such an attribute placed last in its MFT record, resident_data() returns a pointer to the end of the record_size buffer, so reading root->type / root->rule reads past the allocation.
Use resident_data_ex(attr, sizeof(struct INDEX_ROOT)) and bail out when it returns NULL, as ntfs_security_init() already does for $SDH / $SII.
The attribute is only parsed while mounting a crafted image, so this needs CAP_SYS_ADMIN.
