New submission from Boya Sun <boya....@case.edu>:

posix_lchown(PyObject *self, PyObject *args)
{
        ...
        int uid, gid;
        ...
        if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "etii:lchown",
                              Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding, &path,
                              &uid, &gid))
        ...
}

uid and gid could cause over flow. A similar bug is issue 5705.

Patch attached.  Any comment is appreciated!
