Out-of-bounds read in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-64533
Published: July 28, 2026
Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in log_replay() in fs/ntfs3 when replaying a malformed NTFS filesystem restart table. A local user can provide a specially crafted filesystem image to cause a denial of service.
The issue occurs during conversion of DIR_PAGE_ENTRY_32 records into DIR_PAGE_ENTRY records for version 0 restart tables.
