+Subject: [PATCH 08/17] lib: Make `XML_Index` overflow check more intuitive
+
+In fixing a bug, 7e5b71b748491b6e459e5c9a1d090820f94544d8 introduced a magic number `2` in this code that made it difficult to understand the rationale for this overflow check without reading the commit log. This change introduces some more readable constants to use in these situations.
+
+CVE: CVE-2026-56406
+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/commit/252ff1a307b1490ce0f430632791e7e52d7e43fd]
+
+Backport Changes:
+- Adapt include context for Scarthgap 2.6.4 and expose SIZE_MAX in
+  the existing stdint.h comment.
+
+(cherry picked from commit 252ff1a307b1490ce0f430632791e7e52d7e43fd)
