I agree with you, but what can we do now is trying our best to fuzz
all the fields.

So, what is your opinion about EROFS?

I EROFS already has many error handing paths to recover corrupted images,
and your discovery is a bug out of one error handing path miswritten by me.
I cannot make a guarantee that all the new things (every new kernel version
will introduce new feature / new code) are bug-free since I am not a machine
or code parser.

My answer about this EROFS will be more stable with our development, we have
a dedicated team with paid job, and since we currently use EROFS on the top of
dm-verity for current Android, which will keep us from corrupted images.
But yes, we will focus on fuzzing all the images for generic usages,
and we will backport all these patches to old stable versions.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
