Description:
------------
convert_uudecode does not check the string length and thus tries to read past string end on short strings.

Test script:
---------------
$a = "M86%A86%A86%A86%A86%A86%A86%A86%A86%A86%A86%A86%A86%A86%A86%A"."\n"."!.";


Expected result:
----------------
no memory errors

Actual result:
--------------
