"summary": "Calling functions that return multi-dimensional fixed-size arrays can result in memory corruption.",
"description": "If Solidity code calls a function that returns a multi-dimensional fixed-size array, array elements are incorrectly interpreted as memory pointers and thus can cause memory corruption if the return values are accessed. Calling functions with multi-dimensional fixed-size arrays is unaffected as is returning fixed-size arrays from function calls. The regular expression only checks if such functions are present, not if they are called, which is required for the contract to be affected.",

Constructors
============
-A constructor is an optional function declared with the ``constructor`` keyword which is executed upon contract creation.
-Constructor functions can be either ``public`` or ``internal``. If there is no constructor, the contract will assume the
-default constructor: ``contructor() public {}``.
+A constructor is an optional function declared with the ``constructor`` keyword
+which is executed upon contract creation, and where you can run contract
+initialisation code.
+
+Before the constructor code is executed, state variables are initialised to
+their specified value if you initialise them inline, or zero if you do not.
+
+After the final code of the contract is returned. The final deployment of
+the code costs additional gas linear to the length of the code. If you did not
+supply enough gas to initiate the state variables declared in the constructor,
+then an "out of gas" exception is generated.
+
+Constructor functions can be either ``public`` or ``internal``. If there is no
+constructor, the contract will assume the default constructor, which is
+equivalent to ``constructor() public {}``. For example:

In a similar way, the function ``delegatecall`` can be used: the difference is that only the code of the given address is used, all other aspects (storage, balance, ...) are taken from the current contract. The purpose of ``delegatecall`` is to use library code which is stored in another contract. The user has to ensure that the layout of storage in both contracts is suitable for delegatecall to be used. Prior to homestead, only a limited variant called ``callcode`` was available that did not provide access to the original ``msg.sender`` and ``msg.value`` values.

It might be that you run into Out-of-Gas for ``sha256``, ``ripemd160`` or ``ecrecover`` on a *private blockchain*. The reason for this is that those are implemented as so-called precompiled contracts and these contracts only really exist after they received the first message (although their contract code is hardcoded). Messages to non-existing contracts are more expensive and thus the execution runs into an Out-of-Gas error. A workaround for this problem is to first send e.g. 1 Wei to each of the contracts before you use them in your actual contracts. This is not an issue on the official or test net.
