To fix the problem, we need to ensure that the arithmetic operation involving the lengths of the slices does not overflow. This can be achieved by validating the lengths of the slices before performing the arithmetic operation. Specifically, we should check if the sum of the lengths of
customFields
andcommonFields
exceeds the maximum value for the type before using it in the allocation.customFields
andcommonFields
before performing the arithmetic operation.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
