Integer Overflow or Wraparound
CVE-2026-46384
Summary
Several Avro decoder paths read attacker-controlled 64-bit values from the wire format and either narrowed them to platform-sized `int` before bounds-checking, or summed them with overflow-prone signed-`int` arithmetic. On 32-bit targets (`GOARCH=386`, `arm`, `mips`, `wasm`, etc.), the truncation paths can silently bypass byte-slice limits, select the wrong union branch, or hit the OCF negative-`make` panic via wrap. Three sub-issues are not 32-bit-specific: cumulative-size arithmetic overflow in `arrayDecoder.Decode` / `mapDecoder.Decode` / `mapDecoderUnmarshaler.Decode` (wraps at `math.MaxInt64` on amd64 / arm64 and bypasses `MaxSliceAllocSize` / `MaxMapAllocSize`), `math.MinInt` negation in block-header handling, and `make([]byte, size)` with a negative size in OCF block reads -- all three panic or bypass caps on any platform, giving an attacker a denial-of-service primitive there.

CWE-190 - Integer Overflow or Wraparound
The software performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound, when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This can introduce other weaknesses when the calculation is used for resource management or execution control.
