Neither case validates\nview.data_off + dlen against e->size; the existing\ncheck_if_index_root / check_if_alloc_index helpers walk the\nentry chain and validate the entry's offset, but not its\ninternal view fields.\n\nThe neighbouring read sites (e.g., fs/ntfs3/index.c when\niterating view entries) check view.data_off + view.data_size\n<= e->size. Apply the same bound at the two memmove sites.\n\nReproduced under UML+KASAN on mainline 8d90b09e6741 via\npr_warn-only probe instrumentation: with view.data_off forced\nto 0xFFFC, the memmove writes 32 bytes past the end of the\nNTFS_DE.\n\nThis is similar in shape to Pavitra Jha's 2026-05-02 patch\n\"fs/ntfs3: prevent oob in case UpdateRecordDataRoot\"\n(<20260502105008.21827-1-jhapavitra98@gmail.com>) which\nproposes calling ntfs3_bad_de_range(); that helper does not\nexist in mainline.
