Hi Stefan,

> The direntlen checks were quite bogus, i.e. the loop termination used
> "len + offset == blocksize" (exact match only), and checked for a
> direntlen less than 0. The latter can never happen as the len is
> unsigned, this has been reported by Coverity, CID 153384.
> 
> Use the same code as in search_dir for directory traversal. This code
> has the correct checks for direntlen >= sizeof(struct dirent), and
> offset < blocksize.
