Hi All,

I was reading through Bug 9695860 write up (available at
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/07/11/second-all-access-apk-exploit-is-revealed-just-two-days-after-master-key-goes-public-already-patched-by-google/).

Am I the only guy scratching my head in disbelief in AOSP's
unwillingness to validate fields properly? What's with the stupid
programmer tricks of forcing a negative value to positive? Those silly
tricks just turned -2 into 65534, which is still probably incorrect.
Is there any reason an APK is not rejected as malformed?

Jeff
