In a shell
mkdir dired-err
touch dired-err/xx
chmod 555 dired-err
emacs -Q
M-x dired dired-err
C-x C-q
edit the xx file name to taste
C-c C-c (finish the edit)
You exit the filename editing mode with an error (not surprising) but
all your edits are lost. It would be more helpful if either C-x C-q gave
you a warning or the finish of the edit spotted that nothing was going
to work and complained or that it didn't exit the mode (though I realise
that there may be cases where some edits may have worked e.g. where the
dired-err subdir has been inserted in another dired session before
editing the file names)
