Message-ID: <2025122448-CVE-2022-50739-f061@gregkh> Date: Wed, 24 Dec 2025 14:05:50 +0100 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-cve-announce@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...nel.org> Subject: CVE-2022-50739: fs/ntfs3: Add null pointer check for inode operations From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...nel.org> Description =========== In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/ntfs3: Add null pointer check for inode operations This adds a sanity check for the i_op pointer of the inode which is returned after reading Root directory MFT record. We should check the i_op is valid before trying to create the root dentry, otherwise we may encounter a NPD while mounting a image with a funny Root directory MFT record.

Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: fs/ntfs3/super.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f62506f5e45afbb01c84c3f28a2878b320a0b0f7 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9f24743ddcdd3683b0a6b16e1439ad091dc3489b https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a7b23037b38b577d9a4372e0c6b7c9fe808070c1 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c1ca8ef0262b25493631ecbd9cb8c9893e1481a1
