Summary
Fix the bounds check in
VerifierTemplate::VerifySizePrefixedBuffer()to avoid relying on addition that can wrap on 32-bit builds, and instead enforce the framing invariant directly.Root Cause
The previous check used:
prefix + sizeof(SizeT) <= size_
This relies on unsigned addition, which can wrap on 32-bit systems. It also enforces the boundary indirectly rather than checking the invariant itself.
Change
Replaced the addition-based check with:
prefix <= size_ - sizeof(SizeT)
This:
Invariant
For size-prefixed buffers, the declared payload size must fit within the remaining bytes after the prefix.
Impact
