Linux · Linux Kernel · CVE-2022-49550
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
**Description**
A memory leak issue exists in the Linux kernel due to the lack of the `invalidate folio` method in the ntfs3 filesystem. This causes cached written data to not be freed when the filesystem is unmounted after writing to it, resulting in a permanent memory leak.
**Recommendations**
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
