Subject: [PATCH] fs: minix: Fix handling of corrupted directories
Date: Fri,  2 May 2025 19:43:36 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250502164337.62895-1-kitotavrik.media@gmail.com> (raw)

If the directory is corrupted and the number of nlinks is less than 2 
(valid nlinks have at least 2), then when the directory is deleted, the
minix_rmdir will try to reduce the nlinks(unsigned int) to a negative
value.

Make nlinks validity check for directory in minix_lookup.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
