Mentre eseguivo boron nel mio ambiente, mi sono imbattuto in 2 heap buffer overflow in libboron (libboron.so.2 versione 2.0.8) durante l'elaborazione di input leggermente malformati. Questo è stato testato ufficialmente sia su Mac (x86_64) che su Linux (x86_64):

## (CVE-2023-40294) Overflow del buffer heap in ur_parseBlockI in i_parse_blk.c:

https://github.com/0branch/boron/blob/e98ed6cbc7911cf31a6e4ac8a0b00fd7c224e807/urlan/i_parse_blk.c#L21


Per prima cosa, ho eseguito boron sul file che ha prodotto il crash:```
$ ./boron ur_parseBlockI_overflow.b 
malloc(): invalid size (unsorted)
zsh: IOT instruction  ./boron ur_parseBlockI_overflow.b

L'output mi ha fatto credere che ci fosse un heap overflow che corrompeva un heap chunk nell'unsorted bin, così ho compilato il progetto con address sanitizer e debug symbols per verificare:

Eseguendo boron contro ur_parseBlockI_overflow.b una seconda volta si ottiene il seguente output da ASAN, che conferma il buffer overflow nell'heap:
