Summary
fs/ntfs3: Initialize allocated memory before use
Details

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

fs/ntfs3: Initialize allocated memory before use

KMSAN reports: Multiple uninitialized values detected:

  • KMSAN: uninit-value in ntfsreadhdr (3)
  • KMSAN: uninit-value in bcmp (3)

Memory is allocated by __getname(), which is a wrapper for kmemcachealloc(). This memory is used before being properly cleared. Change kmemcachealloc() to kmemcachezalloc() to properly allocate and clear memory before use.
