+Subject: [PATCH] Fix heap buffer overflow in fgetwln()
+
+In the function fgetwln() there's a 4 byte heap overflow.
+
+There is a while loop that has this check to see whether there's still
+enough space in the buffer:
+
+		if (!fb->len || wused > fb->len) {
+
+If this is true more memory gets allocated. However this test won't be
+true if wused == fb->len, but at that point wused already points out
+of the buffer. Some lines later there's a write to the buffer:
+
+		fb->wbuf[wused++] = wc;
+
+This bug was found with the help of address sanitizer.
