Description Pierre Ossman cendio 2021-03-09 17:03:15 CET 
When we get junk data as an XML-RPC request we try to log that request, assumingly to aid in debugging. However that request can be rather large as we allow up to 1 MiB of data. We should probably limit things to something sensible in such cases.

This can happen in two places:

 1. When parsing the incoming request (see bug 5032)

 2. When parsing the response (logs "Trouble parsing XMLRPC response from VSM Agent ...")
