A connected GGPO peer can send a VF4 card application message with an arbitrary player number. on_message currently passes it directly to:

setRfidCardData(event->u.card.playerNum, event->u.card.data);

setRfidCardData then accesses:

MapleDevices[1 + playerNum][5]

MapleDevices has four rows, so a player number of 255 attempts to access row 256. This invalid shared_ptr access can crash or corrupt the online session. The handler also does not ensure the message contains a complete card event.

Require the exact VF4 card-event length and restrict the player number to the two players supported by the GGPO session. Flycast’s sender already uses only player zero or one.

A connected peer can send a VF4 card event with an arbitrary player
number. The handler used it to index beyond the global MapleDevices
array.

…ast's open pull requests, release candidates in the updater, no Screenshot control

- Netplay: the checksum of a save state or of a CDI, GDI or CUE image is the
  file's, not its pointer's (flyinghead#2513).
- sh4: the FPSCR cause field is cleared when the guest writes FPSCR (flyinghead#2531).
- CHD: the track metadata's text fields are held to their buffers (flyinghead#2384).
- Input: absolute mouse motion rebased after relative input (flyinghead#2528); axis
  detection for triggers that report as buttons (flyinghead#2213).
- Checks of an ISO9660 directory record, RZIP chunk sizes, DNS answers,
  GGPO input packets and card events, and a Naomi LST's ranges (flyinghead#2414,
  flyinghead#2415, flyinghead#2416, flyinghead#2519, flyinghead#2520, flyinghead#2521).
- The updater ranks v1.1.0-rc1 under v1.1.0, and a release's build is not
  offered candidates.
- The quick menu's Screenshot row and control are gone: the console's
  Create button takes screenshots.
- Built with PS5_Vulkan 5b5e4fc, the payload SDK fork at b5efad5 and
  libsmb2 7e4ff97.
