+Subject: [PATCH] apr_base64: Make sure encoding/decoding lengths fit in an int
+ >= 0.
+
+The (old) API of apr_base64 functions has always used int for representing
+lengths and it does not return errors. Make sure to abort() if the provided
+data don't fit.
+
+* encoding/apr_base64.c():
+  #define APR_BASE64_ENCODE_MAX and APR_BASE64_DECODE_MAX as the hard length
+  limits for encoding and decoding respectively.
+
+* encoding/apr_base64.c(apr_base64_encode_len, apr_base64_encode,
+                        apr_base64_encode_binary, apr_pbase64_encode):
+  abort() if the given length is above APR_BASE64_ENCODE_MAX.
+
+* encoding/apr_base64.c(apr_base64_decode_len, apr_base64_decode,
+                        apr_base64_decode_binary, apr_pbase64_decode):
+  abort() if the given plain buffer length is above APR_BASE64_DECODE_MAX.
+
+
+apr_base64: Follow up to r1902206: Cap to APR_BASE64_ENCODE_MAX in apr_pbase64_encode().
+
+
+Merges r1902206[, r1904666] from trunk.
+Merges r1904727 from 1.7.x.
