The source<br \/>\nbyte count &#8216;to_move&#8217; is summed from the on-disk resident entry sizes<br \/>\nand is independent of the destination buffer size, which comes from<br \/>\nroot-&gt;index_block_size (via indx-&gt;index_bits).<\/p>\n<p>A crafted NTFS image that keeps a valid, full resident root but<br \/>\nshrinks root-&gt;index_block_size down to 512 after the root has been<br \/>\npopulated makes hdr_insert_head() memcpy attacker-controlled resident<br \/>\nentry bytes past the end of the kmalloc(1u &lt;index_bits)<br \/>\nallocation returned by indx_new(). For a 512-byte destination and a<br \/>\nresident root whose non-last entries total 560 bytes, the memcpy<br \/>\noverruns by 120 bytes and a following memmove extends the highest<br \/>\nwritten offset to 136 bytes past the allocation. The overflow bytes<br \/>\nare a direct copy of on-disk entries (via kmemdup), so they are<br \/>\nfully attacker-controlled.<\/p>\n<p>The write is reachable from unprivileged open(O_CREAT) on a mounted<br \/>\ncrafted NTFS image: a single sufficiently long create in a directory<br \/>\nwhose resident root is already full forces root promotion and<br \/>\ntriggers the copy.<\/p>\n<p>This is a controlled out-of-bounds write of 120-136 bytes past a<br \/>\nkmalloc(index_block_size) allocation, with attacker-controlled<br \/>\ncontent. It is a bounded adjacent-heap corruption primitive; it is<br \/>\nnot an arbitrary-address write. Successful exploitation into a named<br \/>\nvictim object depends on the surrounding slab layout.<\/p>\n<p>Reject the copy at the sink.

On mismatch, fail with<br \/>\n-EINVAL and mark the filesystem as having a detected on-disk<br \/>\ninconsistency, which is the same behaviour as the surrounding<br \/>\nvalidation in this function.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<\/p>\n<p>ntfs3: bound to_move in indx_insert_into_root before hdr_insert_head<\/p>\n<p>indx_insert_into_root() promotes a full resident $INDEX_ROOT <\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":[],"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6824","vuln","type-vuln","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.54iter.cn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/vuln\/6824","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.54iter.cn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/vuln"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.54iter.cn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/vuln"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.54iter.cn\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6824"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.54iter.cn\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6824"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.54iter.cn\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6824"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
