A heap-based buffer overflows was discovered in upx, during the generic pointer 'p' points to an inaccessible address in func get_le32(). The problem is essentially caused in PackLinuxElf32::elf_lookup() at p_lx_elf.cpp:5349
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
