Backport upstream commit 5f6d86b50bebf5458ab1becf4de2c5e5f066122b
to fix CVE-2026-58014, a one-byte heap under-read in
g_key_file_get_locale_string_list() when called on a key
with an empty value. The fix adds a `len > 0` guard check
before accessing the buffer. The patch also includes
fuzzing and unit test improvements.

Subject: [PATCH] gkeyfile: Fix a one-byte heap under-read with
|
|
g_key_file_get_locale_string_list()
|
|
|
|
If this method was called on a key file key which has an empty value,
|
|
`len == 0` and this leads to a one-byte under-read off the start of the
|
|
key file buffer.
|
|
|
|
Spotted by linhlhq as #YWH-PGM9867-200. The suggested fix is theirs, and
|
|
the unit test is adapted from their report. I added the fuzzing test.
