+ - Fix CVE-2018-16438 / GHSA-9xmm-cpf8-rgmx
+
+ Make sure info block for external links has at least 3 bytes.
+
+ According to the specification, the information block for external links
+ contains 1 byte of version/flag information and two 0 terminated strings
+ for the object linked to and the full path.
+ Although not very useful, the minimum string length for each (with
+ terminating 0) would be one byte.
+ Checking this helps to avoid SEGVs triggered by bogus files.
