CVE-2025-71311

Vulnerability Description

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

fs/ntfs3: Initialize new folios before use

KMSAN reports an uninitialized value in longest_match_std(), invoked
from ntfs_compress_write(). When new folios are allocated without being
marked uptodate and ni_read_frame() is skipped because the caller expects
the frame to be completely overwritten, some reserved folios may remain
only partially filled, leaving the rest memory uninitialized.
