Description: zziplib is an intentionally lightweight library that offers the ability to easily extract data from files archived in a single zip file. A fuzz on it discovered an NULL pointer access. The complete ASan output: # unzzipcat-mem $FILE ==7955==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x00000000001a (pc 0x7fcfc78e3c50 bp 0x7ffdf55d4f70 sp 0x7ffdf55d4e40 T0) ==7955==The signal is caused by a READ memory access. ==7955==Hint: address points to the zero page. #0 0x7fcfc78e3c4f in zzip_mem_entry_new /tmp/portage/dev- libs/zziplib-0.13.62-r1/work/zziplib-0.13.62/zzip/memdisk.c:182:21 #1 0x7fcfc78e3c4f in zzip_mem_disk_load /tmp/portage/dev- libs/zziplib-0.13.62-r1/work/zziplib-0.13.62/zzip/memdisk.c:137 #2 0x7fcfc78e38b7 in zzip_mem_disk_open /tmp/portage/dev- libs/zziplib-0.13.62-r1/work/zziplib-0.13.62/zzip/memdisk.c:89:5 #3 0x50982d in main /tmp/portage/dev-libs/zziplib-0.13.62- r1/work/zziplib-0.13.62/bins/unzzipcat-mem.c:82:12 #4 0x7fcfc6a2361f in __libc_start_main /var/tmp/portage/sys- libs/glibc-2.22-r4/work/glibc-2.22/csu/libc-start.c:289 #5 0x419748 in _init (/usr/bin/unzzipcat-mem+0x419748) AddressSanitizer can not provide additional info.
