Security flaws in FAPG 0.41 and related patches

Hello Antoine!

As part of a security course at university our group has
studied code of FAPG 0.38. With the help of Splint [1]
we were able to find two security flaws that are still
present in FAPG 0.41.

I have attached a patch to this mail for each flaw.
Would be cool if you could include these patches
in the next FAPG release.

Best regards,

Sebastian
