While decoding a secinfo reply, I store the list of supported sec flavors on a page accessible through res->flavors. Before reading each new flavor, I do some math to determine if there is enough space left on this page, and I break out of my read look if there isn't. In order to perform this check correctly, I need to use the address of res->flavors, rather than the address of res. When this loop was broken early I lied to the caller and told them that the entire list had been decoded. This could lead to problems if the caller tries to use any the garbage data claiming to be a valid sec flavor. I fixed this by using res->flavors->num_flavors as a counter, incrementing it every time a sec flavor is successfully decoded.
