{"id":"CVE-2025-68365","summary":"fs/ntfs3: Initialize allocated memory before use","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nfs/ntfs3: Initialize allocated memory before use\n\nKMSAN reports: Multiple uninitialized values detected:\n\n- KMSAN: uninit-value in ntfs_read_hdr (3)\n- KMSAN: uninit-value in bcmp (3)\n\nMemory is allocated by __getname(), which is a wrapper for\nkmem_cache_alloc(). This memory is used before being properly\ncleared. Change kmem_cache_alloc() to kmem_cache_zalloc() to\nproperly allocate and clear memory before use.","modified":"2026-03-31T17:29:58.846656Z","published":"2025-12-24T10:32:52.728Z","related":["SUSE-SU-2026:0447-1","SUSE-SU-2026:0472-1","SUSE-SU-2026:0587-1","SUSE-SU-2026:20477-1","SUSE-SU-2026:20498-1","SUSE-SU-2026:20845-1","SUSE-SU-2026:20876-1","openSUSE-SU-2026:10039-1","openSUSE-SU-2026:10301-1"],"database_specific":{"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2025/68xxx/CVE-2025-68365.json","cna_assigner":"Linux"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/192e8ce302f14ac66259231dd10cede19858d742"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7d52c592cf53f5bb7163967edc01d2d7d80de44a"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a58e29849aef8d26554a982989a2190b49aaf8ed"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a8a3ca23bbd9d849308a7921a049330dc6c91398"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bdf38063fd15f2fc7361dc0b5d3c259741eab835"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f7728057220cabd720e27e46097edad48e5bd728"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2025/68xxx/CVE-2025-68365.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-68365"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"82cae269cfa953032fbb8980a7d554d60fb00b17"},{"fixed":"bdf38063fd15f2fc7361dc0b5d3c259741eab835"},{"fixed":"a58e29849aef8d26554a982989a2190b49aaf8ed"},{"fixed":"7d52c592cf53f5bb7163967edc01d2d7d80de44a"},{"fixed":"f7728057220cabd720e27e46097edad48e5bd728"},{"fixed":"192e8ce302f14ac66259231dd10cede19858d742"},{"fixed":"a8a3ca23bbd9d849308a7921a049330dc6c91398"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2025-68365.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
