Schwartzentruber of the BlackBerry Security Automated Analysis Team
used the Address Sanitizer tool while fuzzing to discover an out-of-bounds read

read protected memory addresses. In combination with previous techniques used
for SVG timing attacks, this could allow for text values to be read across
domains, leading to information disclosure.");
