File glib2-CVE-2026-1484.patch of Package glib2

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] gbase64: Use gsize to prevent potential overflow
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Both g_base64_encode_step() and g_base64_encode_close() return gsize
values, but these are summed to an int value.

If the sum of these returned values is bigger than MAXINT, we overflow
while doing the null byte write.

Spotted by treeplus.
Thanks to the Sovereign Tech Resilience programme from the Sovereign
Tech Agency.

ID: #YWH-PGM9867-168
Closes: #3870


(cherry picked from commit 6845f7776982849a2be1d8c9b0495e389092bff2)

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] gbase64: Ensure that the out value is within allocated
 size

We do not want to deference or write to it
