in LZO decompressor in the Linux kernel with the following commit:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/206a81c18401c0cde6e579164f752c4b147324ce.
Which amended the "lzo1x_decompress_safe" function located in
lib/lzo/lzo1x_decompress_safe.c file.

xen/common/lzo.c file, which has not been fixed.
Linux commit 206a81c18401 ("lzo: properly check for overruns") was
reverted a month later in af958a38a60c ("Revert "lzo: properly check for
overruns"") and then fixed differently in 72cf90124e87 ("lzo: check for
length overrun in variable length encoding.")
Xen mirrored that sequence with 504f70b62406, 092978f2ffcf and then
10a94ddbd2eb.
