| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in ntfs-3g. This vulnerability allows a local attacker to achieve privilege escalation or cause a Denial of Service (DoS) through memory corruption. By mounting or processing a specially crafted NTFS filesystem image containing manipulated file metadata, the flaw triggers a heap-based buffer overflow within the set user ID (SUID) root utility. An attacker could exploit this condition to execute arbitrary code with elevated root privileges.
