    strntol: fix out-of-bounds reads when parsing numbers with leading sign When parsing a number, we accept a leading plus or minus sign to return a positive or negative number. When the parsed string has such a leading sign, we set up a flag indicating that the number is negative and advance the pointer to the next character in that string. This misses updating the number of bytes in the string, though, which is why the parser may later on do an out-of-bounds read. Fix the issue by correctly updating both the pointer and the number of remaining bytes. Furthermore, we need to check whether we actually have any bytes left after having advanced the pointer, as otherwise the auto-detection of the base may do an out-of-bonuds access. Add a test that detects the out-of-bound read. Note that this is not actually security critical. While there are a lot of places where the function is called, all of these places are guarded or irrelevant: - commit list: this operates on objects from the ODB, which are always NUL terminated any may thus not trigger the off-by-one OOB read. - config: the configuration is NUL terminated. - curl stream: user input is being parsed that is always NUL terminated - index: the index is read via `git_futils_readbuffer`, which always NUL terminates it. - loose objects: used to parse the length from the object's header. As we check previously that the buffer contains a NUL byte, this is safe. - rebase: this parses numbers from the rebase instruction sheet. As the rebase code uses `git_futils_readbuffer`, the buffer is always NUL terminated. - revparse: this parses a user provided buffer that is NUL terminated. - signature: this parser the header information of objects. As objects read from the ODB are always NUL terminated, this is a non-issue. The constructor `git_signature_from_buffer` does not accept a length parameter for the buffer, so the buffer needs to be NUL terminated, as well. - smart transport: the buffer that is parsed is NUL terminated - tree cache: this parses the tree cache from the index extension. The index itself is read via `git_futils_readbuffer`, which always NUL terminates it. - winhttp transport: user input is being parsed that is always NUL terminated
