Technical details
In src/LitDoc.cpp, LitParseHeader() computes a section offset as hdrLen + nPieces * 16 using signed 32-bit arithmetic on attacker-controlled values without validating the complete result. A malicious .lit file can force this calculation to wrap to a negative value, causing an invalid-pointer read in LitU32() and terminating the process. The vulnerability requires local file access and user interaction (opening the file) to trigger.
