There was a problem hiding this comment.
I don't think we should check for overflow in cases where it will never happen. To fix the vulnerability, we can and should normalize incoming values to make overflow impossible. I'm grateful to gosec for highlighting the issue, but I don't think the gosec integer overflow checker is mature enough to be included in our CI.
So, I think we should add G115 to the excludes list, and this PR should pivot to addressing the problem in the best way without affecting readability (normalize incoming values and change variable types to remove the need for conversions, where possible).
