### Description
Buffer overflow.
`memcpy`
was used without checking the size of the buffer
before copying to it. Additionally, a logic flaw was causing the wrong buffer
to be used as the destination for the copy under certain circumstances.
### Mitigation
Correct the logic to select the correct buffer, and add bounds checking to
prevent malformed messages causing a buffer overflow.
