[Tarantool-patches] [PATCH] base64: Properly ignore invalid characters

Sergey Nikiforov void at tarantool.org
Tue Dec 22 11:40:35 MSK 2020


Not all invalid characters were ignored by base64 decoder
causing data corruption and reads beyond decode table
(faults under ASAN).

Added corresponding check into base64 unit test.

Fixes: #5627
