Description Alexander Bergmann 2018-06-06 16:08:22 UTC 
CVE-2018-11738

An issue was discovered in libtskfs.a in The Sleuth Kit (TSK) from release 4.0.2
through to 4.6.1. An out-of-bounds read of a memory region was found in the
function ntfs_make_data_run in tsk/fs/ntfs.c which could be leveraged by an
attacker to disclose information or manipulated to read from unmapped memory
causing a denial of service attack.
