remote SETATTR or EndOfFile requests reach vfs_truncate(), ntfs_setattr(), ntfs_truncate(), and attr_set_size().\nAC:L - The path has no race or victim-dependent timing, and an attacker can control file layout, truncation sizes, resource pressure, and repeated attempts to induce a shrink-side failure.\nPR:L - NFS requires write/truncate permission, while ksmbd requires a valid session and FILE_WRITE_DATA access; an ordinary authorized share user suffices without administrative capabilities.\nUI:N - Once the NTFS3 volume is mounted and shared, the attacker can issue truncation requests without any victim action.\nS:U - The inconsistent inode and resulting filesystem availability impact remain within the host kernel and filesystem security authority.\nC:N - The bug provides no memory-read primitive, and data beyond the reduced valid-data length is unmapped or zero-filled rather than disclosed.\nI:L - The ignored failure can desynchronize VFS size, valid-data length, allocation runs, attribute-list records, and parent metadata, causing limited persistent filesystem corruption without an arbitrary memory-write primitive.\nA:H - The inconsistency can mark an inode bad, make files inaccessible, persist damaged NTFS metadata, or render the affected volume unusable; repeated requests can sustain the denial of service."}]}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/ntfs3/file.c"],"versions":[{"version":"4342306f0f0d5ff4315a204d315c1b51b914fca5","lessThan":"92300ac7ff17cad67ff2f3fbb7003afa326134e0","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"4342306f0f0d5ff4315a204d315c1b51b914fca5","lessThan":"3a718675d6af4992e34ffe86b8f36d471a5afe0e","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"4342306f0f0d5ff4315a204d315c1b51b914fca5","lessThan":"d73dcd1520d65a34420761641a36b951b14c8c53","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"4342306f0f0d5ff4315a204d315c1b51b914fca5","lessThan":"6dfea43d11513b7f2892529de55e8f0855108a2c","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"4342306f0f0d5ff4315a204d315c1b51b914fca5","lessThan":"576248a34b927e93b2fd3fff7df735ba73ad7d01","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/ntfs3/file.c"],"versions":[{"version":"5.15","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"5.15","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.145","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.92","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.34","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.19.6","lessThanOrEqual":"6.19.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.0","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.145"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.92"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.34"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15","versionEndExcluding":"6.19.6"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15","versionEndExcluding":"7.0"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/92300ac7ff17cad67ff2f3fbb7003afa326134e0"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3a718675d6af4992e34ffe86b8f36d471a5afe0e"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d73dcd1520d65a34420761641a36b951b14c8c53"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6dfea43d11513b7f2892529de55e8f0855108a2c"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/576248a34b927e93b2fd3fff7df735ba73ad7d01"}],"title":"fs/ntfs3: handle attr_set_size() errors when truncating files","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
