Unless we know what the cause is and if its involving parsing data
provided by external programs I'd mark this bug 'security' as it could
enable DoS text files, file names and/or worse if its a bug of that
kind
I'm pretty sure it's a "read-off-the-end" bug rather than a
"write-off-the-end" bug, so "worse" is unlikely. But yes, you
probably could trigger it with a really long weird web page
title that 'elinks' makes the terminal title.
