[Xen-devel] [PATCH] libxl: fix the bug which will cause heap to break down



From: Li Liang <liangx.z.li@xxxxxxxxx>

If the JSON message contains more bytes than QMP_RECEIVE_BUFFER_SIZE,
this bug will break down the heap, that leads to core dump. One more
byte should be allocated to contain the appended null character.
