Title
Deskflow: Odd-length DSOP options vector causes out-of-bounds read in Deskflow client
Summary
Deskflow is a keyboard and mouse sharing app. From 1.17.0 until continuous build 1.26.0.296, a malicious Deskflow server can send an odd-length DSOP vector to ServerProxy::setOptions() in src/lib/client/ServerProxy.cpp, causing the missing value after the final option key to be read beyond the vector during the PacketStreamFilter::filterEvent to ServerProxy::handleData() to ServerProxy::parseHandshakeMessage() call chain and crash the connected client. This issue is fixed in continuous build 1.26.0.296.
