CVE-2026-40449: Implicit Signed Unsigned Comparison
A potentially signed value is compared directly against an unsigned maximum limit (`SIZE_MAX / $SIZE`). This can lead to type promotion issues where the signed integer is implicitly cast, potentially enabling integer overflows to bypass bounds checks. Explicitly cast the signed value to an unsigned integer type before making the comparison.
