Other fs maintainers could apply patches on next cycle (or coordinate they pull request with you). If you would agree to that, I suggest to copy the following section from the cover letter into the ext2 patch: The current implementation has a lurking out-of-bounds access bug to the ext2_type_by_mode array. The array is defined with size S_IFMT >> S_SHIFT, so 15. This means that it is possible with a malformed inode to get an index of 15, as the array is always accessed with: ext2_type_by_mode[(mode & S_IFMT)>>S_SHIFT]; Thanks, Amir.
