DF-0853: NO PANIC OBSERVED. The bug is type confusion (CWE-704), not memory corruption. In 3+ mount attempts on the unpatched 6.5-DEVELOPMENT #0 kernel the guest stayed up; the only observable effect was: - dmesg: "cd9660: High Sierra Format" logged for a Standard ISO9660 PVD - mount succeeded (rc=0) but ls /mnt/df0853 returned ENOTDIR (root_extent misread at Sierra offsets) No fatal trap, no KASSERT, no Stopped-at in dfbsd-qemu/boot.log.
