Alexey says: IdentifierArena::makeIdentifier is sometimes called with an empty string, in which case it creates the identifier from garbage memory. Steps to reproduce: 1. Add ASSERT(length > 0); to IdentifierArena::makeIdentifier. 2. Open https://bugs.webkit.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=WebKit Results: the assertion fails. This out of bounds read is not harmless, because the value affects logic in this function, and then goes into an actual identifier. IdentifierArena::makeIdentifierLCharFromUChar has the same problem.
