sumanthakur1976 opened a new pull request, #2788:
URL: https://github.com/apache/thrift/pull/2788
This patch fixes the problem with uncheckd data
conversion read from the network. Currently, code
reads data from the network, converts it to
i32, and then blindly converts it to usize (so -1
gets converted to -1_usize and causes panic in
debug build and huge memory use in release build).
This could easily become a security vulnerability.
The fix replaces all `as usize` casts to try_into
style casts.

<!-- We recommend you review the checklist/tips before submitting a pull
request. -->
- [ ] Did you create an [Apache
Jira](https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/THRIFT/issues/) ticket?
([Request account here](https://selfserve.apache.org/jira-account.html), not
required for trivial changes)
- [ ] If a ticket exists: Does your pull request title follow the pattern
"THRIFT-NNNN: describe my issue"?
- [ ] Did you squash your changes to a single commit? (not required, but
preferred)
- [ ] Did you do your best to avoid breaking changes? If one was needed,
did you label the Jira ticket with "Breaking-Change"?
- [ ] If your change does not involve any code, include `[skip ci]` anywhere
in the commit message to free up build resources.
