This is kind of a silly bug.  There are a bunch of static tables, with their length defined as a constant.  For some reason, the end of these tables was chopped off, but the length wasn't updated for EUCTWFreq.  EUCTW_TABLE_SIZE should be 5376, but it is 8102.  So the bounds check isn't right, and we end up reading off the end of the array.  At least that's what I think is happening from looking at the ASAN log, I haven't tried the test yet.

I think the way forward here is to replace these dangerous magic constants with a direct computation of the length.

Do you want review for this or are you waiting on tests?

> Do you want review for this or are you waiting on tests?

I haven't gotten around to actually trying it out yet, beyond compiling it and running the browser.  There's no big hurry here, as I think we've kind of missed the window for the current cycle of beta, so I'm planning to wait until we're a bit into the next release cycle before landing it.

I'm marking this sec-low.  The array length that is wrong is wrong by a fair amount, a few thousand, so you can read into some random stuff which I guess could cause a crash, but nothing is done with the value that is read out except increment a counter if the value found is > 512.  The data in the table is already fairly arbitrary, from a security standpoint, so it doesn't look to me like it could be that bad. Please say something or upgrade it if you disagree.
