Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
fs/ntfs3: handle hdr_first_de() return value<br />
<br />
The hdr_first_de() function returns a pointer to a struct NTFS_DE. This<br />
pointer may be NULL. To handle the NULL error effectively, it is important<br />
to implement an error handler. This will help manage potential errors<br />
consistently.<br />
<br />
Additionally, error handling for the return value already exists at other<br />
points where this function is called.<br />
<br />
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
