Subject: [PATCH] out of boundary write in XListExtensions
References: bsc#1102068 CVE-2018-14600

The length value is interpreted as signed char on many systems
(depending on default signedness of char), which can lead to an out of
boundary write up to 128 bytes in front of the allocated storage, but
limited to NUL byte(s).

Casting the length value to unsigned char fixes the problem and allows
string values with up to 255 characters.
