Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

fs/ntfs3: Fix NULL deref in ntfs_update_mftmirr

If ntfs_fill_super() wasn't called then sbi->sb will be equal to NULL. Code should check this ptr before dereferencing. Syzbot hit this issue via passing wrong mount param as can be seen from log below

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
