Hello,  thanks for the bug report.

When you say the "default" eCryptfs configuration, what do you mean?

How did you set it up?

How are you using eCryptfs to store your Firefox data?

What is your kernel version?  (Hint, uname -a)

What is your ecryptfs version?  (Hint, dpkg -l | grep ecryptfs)

Bug description:
Dear community members,
I would report a corruption in my partition ext3 happened 2 times on one computer and 2 times on another computer when the filesystems get unmounted during the halting process (Ubuntu 8.10, updated). A segfault appeared two times (one on the first computer and one on the second laptop) while the third and the fourth errors produced a lot of messages on the console (sorry but I did not note the messages) until I manually switched off the pc.
After reboot, fsck get automatically launched and it finds several errors. Mostly it finds orphaned inodes that puts in lost+found. I checked the content and I guessed it was encrypted files (3DUfw and CONSOLE appear in the content of each recovered inode).
Actually I use eCryptFS to store only my Firefox profile (using the default eCryptFS configuration).
