             Summary: Harden Swift protocol negative sizes
                 Key: THRIFT-6033
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-6033
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Swift - Library
            Reporter: Jens Geyer


The Swift library does not validate negative sizes when reading Thrift payloads.

Size values appear in binary/string fields and in map/list/set headers. Those 
values must be non-negative. In {{TBinaryProtocol.swift}}, the 
{{readMapBegin}}, {{readListBegin}}, {{readSetBegin}}, and {{readStringBody}} 
methods read a size and use it without any negative check.

Note: the existing {{size < 0}} check in {{readMessageBegin}} is for protocol 
version detection (old-style message framing), not size validation.

This is a protocol hardening gap compared with other runtimes such as C++, 
Java, Python, Go, and Node.js, which all raise a NEGATIVE_SIZE exception.

The fix should add negative-size checks that throw a TProtocolError in all 
container and string/binary read paths.

See THRIFT-6025 for the equivalent Ruby fix.
