[Qemu-devel] [PULL 8/9] ui: check VNC audio frequency limit at time of reading from client

[Gerd Hoffmann]

From: Daniel P. Berrangé <address@hidden>

The 'vs->as.freq' value is a signed integer, which is read from an
unsigned 32-bit int field on the wire. There is thus a risk of overflow
on 32-bit platforms. Move the frequency limit checking to be done at
time of read before casting to a signed integer.
