      <title>CVE-2026-99241 — ntfs: take invalidate_lock in ntfs_filemap_page_mkwrite()</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-99241</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ntfs: take invalidate_lock in ntfs_filemap_page_mkwrite()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ntfs_filemap_page_mkwrite() calls iomap_page_mkwrite() without holding
mapping-&amp;gt;invalidate_lock, so a concurrent truncate or fallocate can be
in the middle of invalidating pagecache and rewriting the runlist while
the write fault maps blocks and dirties the folio.  This races with
ntfs_attr_fallocate(), which merges clusters into the in-memory
runlist, drops the runlist lock, and only afterwards zeroes the newly
allocated clusters on disk; and with the punch-hole/insert/collapse
paths that free clusters after truncating the cache.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Per Documentation/filesystems/locking.rst, -&amp;gt;page_mkwrite() must ensure
there are no truncate/invalidate races, &amp;#34;usually mapping-&amp;gt;invalidate_lock
is suitable for proper serialization&amp;#34;.  xfs takes its mmaplock (= the
invalidate_lock rwsem) shared in exactly this path.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Take invalidate_lock shared around iomap_page_mkwrite().  The read-only
fault path is already covered because filemap_fault() itself grabs
invalidate_lock shared on instantiation/read paths; only page_mkwrite
was bypassing it in this driver.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
