Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description An issue exists in the ntfs3 file system where a failure during a rename operation does not properly handle inconsistent inodes. The system previously used a WARN ON macro instead of marking the inode as bad, which could allow further operations on an inconsistent inode. This is resolved by calling the ntfs bad inode() function to prevent subsequent operations on the affected inode.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
