pe: fix three PE resource parsing issues (#490)
* fix: Resolve three critical security vulnerabilities in PE resource parsing This commit addresses three security vulnerabilities that could cause denial of service attacks through crafted PE files: 1. Index out of bounds in UTF-16 string parsing (resource.rs:52) - Added bounds checking before accessing chunk elements - Prevents panic when processing odd-length byte arrays 2. Integer overflow in resource directory entry count (resource.rs:172) - Replaced addition with saturating_add to prevent overflow - Handles cases where entry counts exceed u16::MAX 3. Stack overflow in recursive resource directory parsing (resource.rs:393) - Added maximum recursion depth limit of 10 levels - Prevents infinite recursion through circular references - Limit based on typical PE resource structure (3-4 levels: Type → Name/ID → Language → Data) All fixes maintain backward compatibility while ensuring robust error handling for malformed PE files. Tested with proof-of-concept files that previously triggered crashes. Fixes: Index out of bounds, integer overflow, and stack overflow vulnerabilities --------- Co-authored-by: rcampbell_halcyon <[email protected]>
