Subject: [PATCH] fix heap buffer overflows in UDP code (CVE-2019-20797) (#85)
Origin: https://github.com/coelckers/prboom-plus

* fix heap buffer overflows in UDP code (CVE-2019-20797)

* Limit length of buffer passed over to ChecksumPacket().
  Patch taken from the OP at https://logicaltrust.net/blog/2019/10/prboom1.html

* Never send more than one second worth of tics (i.e. 35) in both the
  main() routine in d_server.c and NetUpdate() in d_client.c.
  This avoids overflows of the allocated UDF buffer with a fixed size
  of 10000 bytes. Theoretically, up to about 35 seconds could be sent in the
  client code and up to about 7 seconds in the server code, but the
  network game would be unplayable with such a lag anyway.

Client code: pkt_size = 8 + 2 + X * 8 (= 9810 for X = 35*35)
  Server code: pkt_size = 8 + 1 + X * (1 + 4 * (1 + 8)) (= 9074 for X = 7 * 35)

Fixes: #84

* limit number of sent tics to 128

* fix brain bug
