[PATCH 16/24] e2fsck: don't crash during rehash

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

 



If a user crafts a carefully constructed filesystem containing a
single directory entry block with an invalid checksum and fewer than
two entries, and then runs e2fsck to fix the filesystem, fsck will
crash when it tries to "compress" the short dir and passes a negative
dirent array length to qsort.  Therefore, don't allow directory
"compression" in this situation.
