CVE-2025-22080: Linux Kernel

Medium severity, CVSS 5.5. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/ntfs3: Prevent integer overflow in hdr_first_de() The "de_off" and "used" variables come from the disk so they both need to check. The problem is that on 32bit systems if they're both greater than UINT_MAX - 16 then the check does work as intended because of an integer overflow.

Affected products

• Linux Linux Kernel: from 6.2, before 6.6.87 (fixed in 6.6.87); from 6.7, before 6.12.23 (fixed in 6.12.23); from 6.13, before 6.13.11 (fixed in 6.13.11); from 6.14, before 6.14.2 (fixed in 6.14.2)
