Another not-really-urgent fix: ... Subject: [PATCH] don't let a bogus packet trigger over-allocation and segfault
* src/xen/proxy_internal.c (xenProxyDomainDumpXML): An invalid packet could include a too-large "ans.len" value, which would make us allocate too much memory and then copy data from beyond the end of "ans", possibly evoking a segfault. Ensure that the value we use is no larger than the remaining portion of "ans". Also, change unnecessary memmove to memcpy (src and dest obviously do not overlap, so no need to use memmove).
Here's another. It is nearly identical, so I'll squash it onto the above.
And here's a third one from that file:
