Fixes CVE-2019-9755: An integer underflow issue exists in ntfs-3g 2017.3.23. A local attacker could potentially exploit this by running /bin/ntfs-3g with specially crafted arguments from a specially crafted directory to cause a heap buffer overflow, resulting in a crash or the ability to execute arbitrary code. In installations where /bin/ntfs-3g is a setuid-root binary, this could lead to a local escalation of privileges.

Subject: [PATCH] Fixed reporting an error when failed to build the mountpoint
|
|
|
|
The size check was inefficient because getcwd() uses an unsigned int
|
|
argument.
