Unchecked pointer offset in crate `memmap2`
Details
Affected versionf of `memmap2` did not perform enough validation on the `offset` and `len` parameters of `Mmap::[unchecked_]advise_range()`, `MmapMut::[unchecked_]advise_ranage()` and `MmapMut::flush[_async]_range()`.
This can cause undefined behavior due to invalid values being passed to [`pointer::offset()`] and [`pointer::add()`] when passing an out-of-bounds range to any of the affected functions.
The flaw was corrected in commit [`cee7cf0`] and released in version `0.9.11`.
The invalid pointer is not dereferenced, but it is passed to the `madvise` and `msync` syscalls and their Windows equivalents.
