Not sure this is specific to my case, but i managed to fix this error by changing the following in 'disasmObject' function.

This:

flags = getWord(objectTable, offs, endian)
hlName = getWord(objectTable, offs + 6, endian)

to this:

flags = getWord(indirectTable, offs, endian)
hlName = getWord(indirectTable, offs + 6, endian)

OK, I have reviewed the sample that you sent me. Do not make the changes that you suggested. I haven't made the stupid mistake of addressing the wrong table. Instead, somebody has been actively using a design flaw of pcodedmp and has patched this document so that pcodedmp does not see the modules.

I'll send you a detailed description by e-mail. For now, I am closing the issue. The design flaw will have to be addressed, eventually, in order to handle such attacks, but it involves parsing a very complex and undocumented stream format and I really don't have the time for such an adventure right now.
