From: Christopher Brannon <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The cur_item variable from keyhelp.c is an index into a table of messages. The following condition should always hold: MSG_FUNCNAMES_START + cur_item <= MSG_FUNCNAMES_END. The check in keyhelp.c was wrong. It allowed cur_item to be incremented to an out-of-bounds value.
