Is it a directed or an undirected graph?
If it's an undirected graph, you can construct a DFS Tree, and every back-edge defines a cycle
Shortest cycle length here $$$= 3$$$, not defined by only one back edge
I think this can help you

It can't be solved in better than $$$O(nm)$$$, where $$$m$$$ is the number of edges.
