BTW: Can in.available() be < length as well? In that case then exception before 
your changed line would be misleading.

Subject: RFR 8183591: Incorrect behavior when reading DER value with 
Integer.MAX_VALUE length

This is a bug fix for a corner case in which a DER value has length
equal to Integer.MAX_VALUE. The code uses IOUtils.readFully() to read
the value, which interprets length=Integer.MAX_VALUE to mean "read to
the end." The result is that no exception will be thrown when fewer then
Integer.MAX_VALUE bytes are read from the stream. The fix adds a check
after the readFully() to ensure that the expected number of bytes were
read.
