Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: Fix oob in ntfs_listxattr
The length of name cannot exceed the space occupied by ea.
A vulnerability was found in the ntfs3 function in ntfs_list_ea() in the Linux kernel, where a missing check on the length of an attribute name could exceed the expected size of the extended attribute structure and cause an out-of-bounds error. This issue could result in memory corruption, data leakage, crashes, and arbitrary code execution.
