Here's tryCreateArrayButterfly which is invoked from intlObjectFuncGetCanonicalLocales to create a JSArray object.

inline Butterfly* tryCreateArrayButterfly(VM& vm, JSCell* intendedOwner, unsigned initialLength)
{
    Butterfly* butterfly = Butterfly::tryCreate(
        vm, intendedOwner, 0, 0, true, baseIndexingHeaderForArrayStorage(initialLength),
        ArrayStorage::sizeFor(BASE_ARRAY_STORAGE_VECTOR_LEN));
    if (!butterfly)
        return nullptr;
    ArrayStorage* storage = butterfly->arrayStorage();
    storage->m_sparseMap.clear();
    storage->m_indexBias = 0;
    storage->m_numValuesInVector = 0;
    return butterfly;
}

It allocates a fixed size(BASE_ARRAY_STORAGE_VECTOR_LEN) of memory without caring about |initialLength|. So a BOF occurs in the following iteration.

EncodedJSValue JSC_HOST_CALL intlObjectFuncGetCanonicalLocales(ExecState* state)
{
    ...
    auto length = localeList.size();
    for (size_t i = 0; i < length; ++i) {
        localeArray->initializeIndex(vm, i, jsString(state, localeList[i]));
        RETURN_IF_EXCEPTION(scope, encodedJSValue());
    }
    ...
}
