Actually the cause seems to be related to
[https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=109439]. Indeed, the further
warning are not emitted only after an OOB read. Consider:
int arr[] = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7};
arr[9] = 7; // 1 warning OOB
arr[15] = 12; // 1 warning OOB
int y = arr[12]; // 2 Warnings as in PR109439, terminate path
arr[11]; // No warnings
The reason is because of the poisoned_value diagnostic that is implementing the
diagnostic_path::terminate_path method
