For anyone dealing with Minix file-systems still for this nearly 40 year old creation, the upcoming Linux 6.19 kernel is expected to bring some fixes to the Minix driver for better handling corrupted file-system images.

Syzbot has uncovered some corruption bugs within the Linux kernel's Minix file-system driver. When trying to mount and deal with corrupted Minix file-systems, some problems were uncovered that are now being addressed to be able to report said corruption and fixing the underlying bugs detected.
