[PATCH, RFC 2/2] ext3: Add sanity check to make_indexed_dir

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Make sure the rec_len field in the '..' entry is sane, lest we overrun
the directory block and cause a kernel oops on a purposefully
corrupted filesystem.

This fixes a bug related to a bug originally reported by Sami Liedes
for ext4 at:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12430
