Potential fix for https://github.com/trimble-oss/go-mysql-server/security/code-scanning/268

To address the issue, the conversion from float64 to int64 should be modified to ensure that the bounds check is performed before the conversion. Additionally, the logic should be updated to avoid relying on implicit assumptions about the safety of the conversion. This can be achieved by explicitly checking the bounds and returning an error if the value is out of range.

The fix involves:

  1. Adding a bounds check before performing the conversion from float64 to int64.
  2. Ensuring that the conversion logic is robust and does not rely on implicit assumptions.
  3. Updating the Convert method in systemSetType to handle edge cases explicitly.

To address the issue, we need to ensure that the conversion from float64 to int64 is safe and does not allow untrusted or out-of-range values to propagate. The best approach is to add explicit bounds checks for the float64 value before performing the conversion. Additionally, we should ensure that the t.SetType.Convert(intValue) call is only executed if the value is guaranteed to be safe.

  1. Add a check to ensure that the float64 value is within the range of int64 and does not exceed the bounds of the target type.
  2. If the value is out of range or invalid, return an appropriate error or fallback value.
  3. Modify the Convert method in sql/system_settype.go to include these additional checks.
