Subject: [PATCH] 2.6.22.6 fix kernel panic on corrupted reiserfs directory
Date: Fri, 14 Sep 2007 18:10:19 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070914101019.GA12437@router.lepton.home> (raw)

Hi,
  When reading corrupted reiserfs directory data, d_reclen
  could be a negative number or a big positive number, this
  can lead to kernel panic or oop.
  The following patch adds a sanity check. (against 2.6.20.4)
