Subject: Make sure info block for external links has at least 3 bytes
Patch-mainline: Not yet
Git-repo: ssh://eich@192.168.122.1:/home/eich/sources/HPC/hdf5
Git-commit: 082bfe392b04b1137da9eabd1ecac76c212ab385
References:
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 would be one
byte.
This fixes CVE-2018-16438.
