CVE-2026-72477
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: call _ntfs_bad_inode() when failing to rename
Replace the WARN_ON with a call to _ntfs_bad_inode() to prevent further operations on the inconsistent inode.
Detalles técnicos trazas, registros y código del informe original
It is safe to call _ntfs_bad_inode on live inodes since:
commit 519b078998ce ("fs/ntfs3: Exclude call make_bad_inode for live nodes.")
The WARN_ON was added when it wasn't safe by:
commit d99208b91933 ("fs/ntfs3: cancle set bad inode after removing name fails")CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 9.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.55%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 44
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.

Vector CVSS N/A/L sin UI sugiere acceso remoto sin autenticación, pero el contexto de kernel (ntfs3) implica actividad local de E/S. La falta de WARN_ON y manejo deficiente de inodos inconsistentes puede causar DoS o corrupción de datos. Confianza moderada por ambigüedad del mecanismo de explotación
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
