Subject: [committed] Fix dynamic-stack-buffer-overflow (write_dso, distance)
Date: Tue, 01 Jan 2019 00:00:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190627161338.GA7240@delia> (raw)

Hi,

When compiling with gcc 8 and -fsanitize=address -lasan, we run into a
dynamic-stack-buffer-overflow related to the distance variable in write_dso.

The variable is allocated with dimension dso->ehdr.e_shnum, but we use
dso->ehdr.e_shnum elements while not using element 0.

Fix this by increasing the size of the distance variable.

This fixes the dwz-fedora-s390x buildbot failure.

Committed to trunk.

Thanks,
- Tom
