Subject: [PATCH 7.2.y 3/3] ntfs: fix memmove overlap in ntfs_new_attr_flags
Date: Thu, 22 Oct 2026 18:46:02 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261022224435.2159674-3-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261022224435.2159674-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Hongling Zeng <zenghongling@kylinos.cn>
[ Upstream commit acb1095fd2db884b417cb70808c886e4b615ff05 ]
When the record shrinks while the payload offsets increase (e.g., enabling
compression reduces padding, making arec_size < old_arec_size, but the header
grows by 8 bytes), moving the name first can overwrite the old mapping_pairs
before they are copied. Move mapping_pairs first in this case.
Since mp_ofs is derived from name_ofs, they always change in the same
direction. Checking name_ofs alone is sufficient.
Fixes: fc053f05ca28 ("ntfs: add reparse and ea operations")
