Non-progress DoS in SHIFT_JISX0213 -> UCS-4 conversion state <br/> handling (`iconvdata/shift_jisx0213.c`): crafted input can cause repeated <br/> emission of a buffered code point without further input consumption, <br/> leading to persistent retry churn and denial of service in callers <br/> converting untrusted text.<br/> Requirements to exploit: An attacker must be able to supply text that an <br/> application converts from `SHIFT_JISX0213` to `UCS-4`, trigger a 2-byte <br/> sequence that expands through `__jisx0213_to_ucs_combining`, and have the <br/> caller retry after `E2BIG` with the same conversion state once only enough <br/> output space remains for the first of the two emitted code points. <br/> Applications that never use this conversion path, or that abort on repeated <br/> no-progress `E2BIG`, are not practically exposed.<br/>
