The GUIX binary resource (theme) loader sizes its arena and populates it in two separate passes that traverse the resource file with independent cursor arithmetic. Because gxpageheaderdatasize is never validated against the glyph data a page actually contains, the two passes can read different page headers for the same font page, derive different glyph counts, and reserve less than the load pass writes. The excess is written past the end of the arena, with content taken verbatim from the file.

The overflowed buffer is allocated by GUIX itself, through gxsystemmemoryallocator, rather than supplied by the caller. The public API gxbinresthemeload() takes no size parameter, so no amount of caller diligence prevents this.

Reproduces in the shipped default configuration; GXBINARYRESOURCESUPPORT is enabled by default.
