Add a bounds check on size_of_preparsed_data (computed from file-sourced FirstByteOfLinkCollectionArray and NumberLinkCollectionNodes) before passing it to malloc(). This ensures the tainted scalar values read via sscanf are sanitized by verifying the allocation size is within a permissible range (1 MB).
