commit 1d091155d24dc1b54c72f6780f2e4626230dbcb6
Author: Tom Lane <[email protected]>

    Prevent buffer overrun in unicode_normalize().
    
    Some UTF8 characters decompose to more than a dozen codepoints.
    It is possible for an input string that fits into well under
    1GB to produce more than 4G decomposed codepoints, causing
    unicode_normalize()'s decomp_size variable to wrap around to a
    small positive value.  This results in a small output buffer
    allocation and subsequent buffer overrun.
    
    To fix, test after each addition to see if we've overrun MaxAllocSize,
    and break out of the loop early if so.  In frontend code we want to
    just return NULL for this failure (treating it like OOM).  In the
    backend, we can rely on the following palloc() call to throw error.
    
    I also tightened things up in the calling functions in varlena.c,
    using size_t rather than int and allocating the input workspace
    with palloc_array().  These changes are probably unnecessary
    given the knowledge that the original input and the normalized
    output_chars array must fit into 1GB, but it's a lot easier to
    believe the code is safe with these changes.
