CVE-2023-46135: stellar-strkey vulnerable to panic in SignedPayload::from_payload

October 25, 2023

Panic vulnerability when a specially crafted payload is used. This is because of the following calculation:

inner_payload_len + (4 - inner_payload_len % 4) % 4

If inner_payload_len is 0xffffffff, (4 - inner_payload_len % 4) % 4 = 1 so

inner_payload_len + (4 - inner_payload_len % 4) % 4 = u32::MAX + 1

which overflow.
