Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel version 4.15.0
Description The issue is related to the ntfs read locked inode function in the ntfs.ko filesystem driver, which allows attackers to trigger a use-after-free read. This could potentially cause a denial of service, resulting in a kernel oops or panic, via a crafted ntfs filesystem.
Recommendations For Linux kernel version 4.15.0, consider updating to a newer version that contains a fix for this issue, as using a crafted ntfs filesystem could lead to a denial of service.
