The bug was discovered with basic fuzz testing. As libxml2 maintainer, I found more and more issues in various iconv implementations by accident which is a strong indicator that all this code isn't tested enough. The iconv API is also trivial to fuzz, so it seemed like a nice weekend project. Thanks, AFL?

My work is related to static checkers and linters (we will contribute an important patch to weggli soon), so I was wondering if you used something that used symbolic execution.

Nice job! Nick
