Subject: [PATCH v1 08/13] perf python: Check counts_values size in set_values
Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2026 22:35:10 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260623053515.2677888-9-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260623053515.2677888-1-irogers@google.com>

The set_values function incorrectly assumed the list contained exactly
5 elements. Add a check to prevent out-of-bounds access.

Fixes: 877108e42b1b ("perf tools: Initial python binding")
