Upgrading this to critical, because heap overflow vulnerabilities are not theoretical exploit vectors. Rather than porting a fix to the old version, it might make more sense to simply follow master because the project does not seem to have a sane release policy.

Bumped a patched version to [community-testing], please test if it has any side effect, thanks.
