In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: centalize $INDEX_ROOT header validation
Add a dedicated helper to perform stricter validation of $INDEX_ROOT and
use it for both directory inodes and named index inodes. This keeps the
root size and header geometry checks consistent across both read paths.
