This change adds extra validation against varint decoding to ensure that rejectNonADR027TxRaw doesn't panic when we try to slice txBytes[m:] due to the fact that varint decoding can be trivially fooled by adding extraneous bytes peppered with 0x80, as investigated at https://cyber.orijtech.com/advisory/varint-decode-limitless

Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The update involves adding a validation check to a function that decodes transaction bytes. This check ensures that the length of the decoded transaction does not surpass the actual byte length of the input. Additionally, a comment has been added to highlight potential issues with the decoding of variable-length integers (varints).

Changes

File Path Change Summary
.../decode/adr027.go Added validation for decoded transaction byte length and a comment about varint decoding issues.

Thanks for the reviews @julienrbrt and @testinginprod! @testinginprod the test is quite complex to produce the exact byte pattern and I have a fuzzer running currently for protowire that'll exhaust the path and when I do some attacks on that repository. My change is pre-emptive protection for the cosmos-sdk as varint decoding is fickle for most implementations.
