since this iconv implementation's output is stateless, it's necessary to know before writing anything to the output buffer whether the conversion of the current input character will fit. previously we used a hard-coded table of the output size needed for each supported output encoding, but failed to update the table when adding support for conversion to jis-based encodings and again when adding separate encoding identifiers for implicit-endianness utf-16/32 and ucs-2/4 variants, resulting in out-of-bound table reads and incorrect size checks. no buffer overflow was possible, but the affected characters could be converted incorrectly, and iconv could potentially produce an incorrect return value as a result. remove the hard-coded table, and instead perform the recursive iconv conversion to a temporary buffer, measuring the output size and transferring it to the actual output buffer only if the whole converted result fits. |

musl libc musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain. The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and glibc functionality. For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file. Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on the project website: http://www.musl-libc.org/
