Hi Allan,
Le 14/05/2026 à 20:18, Allan ELKAIM a écrit :
sqfs_dir_offset() returns a negative errno on failure, but three
call sites in sqfs_search_dir() use the return value as an array
index without checking for errors first. If the lookup fails,
dirs->table is set to an invalid address, leading to undefined
behavior.

Add negative-value guards after each sqfs_dir_offset() call so
that any lookup failure propagates cleanly as an error rather
than producing incorrect results.

Note: the corresponding sqfs_find_inode() NULL checks and the
heap exhaustion fix during symlink resolution are applied in
separate patches.

Don't we need to:
        free(dirs->entry);
        dirs->entry = NULL;
here?
