Error 39 : Decoding error : Destination buffer is too small

[easterEodj]

I tried diagnosis of the source code and using the clang-6.0 reports to find the issue for 10min, but wasn't lucky. My best guess is that the clang diagnosis is right and in lib/huf_decompress.c line 422 symbol is not assigned correctly to a U16, as it was formerly stored as a BYTE within assembling sortedSymbol in HUF_readDTableX4 line 494. Is the read out of bounds for weight and symbol on purpose?

Thanks for report @easterEodj .

It's a bit unexpected, as the problem seems to be triggered during the FSE decompression test,
hence, no huffman function, like HUF_readDTableX4(), is supposed to be invoked.

I'm also unable currently the reproduce the issue,
so I would like a few more details if possible to try to generate the error on my side.

• Which cpu type ?
• Which OS ?
• Which compiler ? (clang6 ?)
• Which version of source code ? (commit hash if possible)
