The software 842 decompressor receives, through the initial value of the
'olen' parameter, the capacity of the buffer pointed to by 'out'. If this
capacity is insufficient to decode the compressed bitstream, -ENOSPC
should be returned.
However, the bounds checks are missing for index references (for those
ops. where decomp_ops includes a I2, I4 or I8 subop.), and also for
OP_SHORT_DATA. Due to this, sw842_decompress can write past the capacity
of the 'out' buffer.
The case for index references can be triggered by compressing data that
follows a 16-byte periodic pattern (excluding special cases which are
better encoded by OP_ZEROS) and passing a 'olen' somewhat smaller than the
original length.
The case for OP_SHORT_DATA can be triggered by compressing an amount of
data that is not a multiple of 8, and then a slightly smaller 'olen' that
can't fit those last <8 bytes.
Following is a small test module to demonstrate the issue.

in[i] = i % 16; // 0, 1, 2, ..., 14, 15, 0, 1, 2, ...

decomp[i] = 0xFF; // Place guard bytes
ret = sw842_compress(in, ibound, out, &clen, workspace);
