> Attached is a sample file created by our Fuzzer running on the C++ library 
> that causes an std::bad_alloc due to the string or byte field having an 
> invalid negative integer length. The fix is trivial I'll send out a PR soon 
> but it's something like:
>  
> {code:java}
> void BinaryDecoder::decodeString(std::string& value)
> {
>  // Preserve the sign to avoid allocating memory if len is negative.
>  ssize_t len = decodeInt();
>  if (len < 0) {
>  throw Exception(
>  boost::format("Cannot have a string of negative length: %1%") % len);
>  }
>  value.resize(len);
>  if (len > 0) {
>  in_.readBytes(reinterpret_cast<uint8_t*>(&value[0]), len);
>  }
> }{code}
