Mandriva Linux Advisory MDVA-2008:096

http://www.mandriva.com/security/

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : ntfs-3g

Date : June 14, 2008

Affected: 2008.0, 2008.1

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Problem Description:

 

In certain rare circumstances, any area of an NTFS volume, excluding

the NTFS boot sector, could get corrupted. The chances for this to

happen are greater when the disk is close to full utilization and when

using one of the more uncommon, less than 4096 byte cluster sizes.

The updated packages correct this issue.
