Add bounds checking and validation for binary dictionary values#1083
Conversation
Add bounds checking for pValueBuffer advancement when parsing .ocd2 dictionary files. A crafted .ocd2 file with manipulated numValueBytes values could cause reads past the end of the heap-allocated valueBuffer. The fix validates that: - numValueBytes is non-zero - pValueBuffer + numValueBytes does not exceed the buffer end - The value is properly null-terminated within the buffer Fixes GHSA-q92m-gpfj-xgqv https://claude.ai/code/session_019sH5KXruubuLydo2NNasNE
Tests craft binary .ocd2 files to verify that NewFromFile properly rejects malformed input: - Value offset exceeding buffer bounds - Value not null-terminated within its claimed range - Zero-length numValueBytes - Cumulative offsets overflowing the buffer - Sanity check that well-formed crafted files still deserialize correctly https://claude.ai/code/session_019sH5KXruubuLydo2NNasNE

Summary
This change adds safety validation when reading serialized values from OpenCC binary dictionary files to prevent out-of-bounds memory access and ensure data integrity.
Key Changes
pValueBufferEndpointer to track the end boundary of the value buffernumValueBytesdoesn't exceed the remaining buffer spaceInvalidFormatexception with descriptive error messages when validation failsImplementation Details
The validation occurs before dereferencing the value pointer, ensuring:
This prevents potential buffer overflows and data corruption when reading malformed or corrupted dictionary files.
