I've checked the following fix into the e2fsprogs git repository.
Thanks again for reporting the bug.

    libext2fs: add sanity check for an invalid itable_used value in inode scan 
code
    
    If the number of unused inodes is greater than number of inodes a
    block group, this can cause an e2fsck -n run of the file system to
    crash.
    
    We should add more checks to e2fsck to detect this case directly, but
    this will at least protect progams (tune2fs, dump, etc.) which use the
    inode_scan abstraction from crashing on an invalid file system.
