Subject: [PATCH] Fix buffer underflow in xdl_build_script
Date: Fri, 23 May 2025 20:51:40 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.1976.git.git.1748033500935.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)

From: jinyaoguo <guo846@purdue.edu>

The loop in xdl_build_script used `i1 >= 0 || i2 >= 0`, causing
`i1` (or `i2`) to reach 0 and then access `rchg1[i1-1]` (or
`rchg2[i2-1]`), which underflows the buffer.
This commit adds explicit `i1 > 0` and `i2 > 0` checks around
those array accesses to prevent invalid negative indexing.
