ORA-19566: exceeded limit of 0 corrupt blocks

Question

Hi All,
We have been encountering some issues with RMAN backup; it has been erroring out with same errors (max corrupt blocks). As of now, I ran the db verify for affected files and found that indexes are failing. When I tried to find out the indexes from extent views, I was unable to find it. Looks like these blocks are in free space as I found it and also the V$backup corruption view shows the logical corruption.
Waiting for you suggestion....

dbv file=/ora/oradata/binadb/RAT_TRANS_IDX01.dbf blocksize=8192

Seems like I have 1 page failing. I try to run this script:
select segment_type, segment_name, owner
from sys.dba_extents
where file_id = 18 and 23496 between block_id
and block_id + blocks - 1;
No rows returned.
Then, I try to run this script:
Select tablespace_name, file_id, block_id, bytes
from dba_free_space
where file_id = 18
and 23496 between block_id and block_id + blocks - 1
Resulting 1 row.
Seems like I have the possible corrupt block on unused space.
