Subject: [PATCH] tools/perf: use local variable for segment file offset
Date: Thu, 2 Oct 2014 15:38:41 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141002143824.GA3824@rcane-VirtualBox> (raw)
The value of phdr->p_offset is stored inside a buffer that gets reallocated, so it could become corrupted if the new size isn't big enough to contain it
