unsquashfs segfault on 64bit machines

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Using binwalk with the -e option in order to extract an squashfs ends up in 
segmentation fault of a tool inside FMK.

As it turns out, this only happens in 64bit machines context, running perfectly 
on 32bit ones.

If you are not willing to debug and fix this beware that I will attempt to when 
I have more time, so please don't mark instantaniously as wont fix.

Thanks in advance.

Valgrind has tracked this down to the OutWindowCopyBackBlock function, which is 
a "BRCM modification" in the WindowOut.h file (I've never seen good code from 
Broadcom).

Specifically it is performing an invalid read on a pointer address that is not 
mapped in memory. The invalid address on my 64 bit machine is 0x010541D087, 
while it appears that this address should be 0x0541D087. That high byte (0x01) 
is outside the range of a 32-bit address, which is probably why this works fine 
in 32-bit environments.

Still looking in to the specific cause and a fix.

Any improvement here?

Thanks for your time.

I meet the same problem. I run archlinux 64bit in VM virtual.

Download the file from: www.dd-wrt.com : dd-wrt.v24_std_generic.bin
run the last fmk tools: extract-firmware.sh 

Here is error:
