+Candidate: CVE-2006-6060
+References:
+ MISC:http://projects.info-pull.com/mokb/MOKB-19-11-2006.html
+Description:
+ The NTFS filesystem code in Linux kernel 2.6.x up to 2.6.18, and possibly
+ other versions, allows local users to cause a denial of service (CPU
+ consumption) via a malformed NTFS file stream that triggers an infinite loop
+ in the __find_get_block_slow function.
+Ubuntu-Description:
+Notes:
+ fixed by patch for CVE-2006-5757 since the bug is in the common
+ __find_get_block_slow() function.
+ dannf> reproducer at http://projects.info-pull.com/mokb/MOKB-19-11-2006.html
+ dannf> I mounted the reproducer fs on an ia64/2.4.27 system and though
+ it didn't cause an infinite loop, the system did lock up hard
+ jmm> e5657933863f43cc6bb76a54d659303dafaa9e58 in Linus git
+ dannf> The reproducer causes i386/2.4.36 to oops; but if this patch is
+ backported and applied it will print:
+ NTFS: Problem with runlist in extended record
+ ... and then oops.
+ So, I'm guessing this patch makes things better, but I don't think
+ its worth the risk of applying it unless the other oops gets fixed
+ as well.
+ dannf> Unpatched 2.4.27 oopses and prints the same runlist message that
+ patched 2.4.36 prints
