PathConsumed\n\nparse_dfs_referrals() validates that the response contains the fixed\nreferral entry array and, on for-next, the per-referral string offsets.\nHowever, the response also contains a PathConsumed value that is later\nused for DFS path parsing.\n\nIf a malformed response provides a PathConsumed value larger than the\nsearch name, later DFS parsing can advance beyond the end of the path.\n\nValidate PathConsumed against the search name length before storing it in\nthe parsed referral.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-08-10T12:03:19.939+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-19T21:09:05.575+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor
