The "src" parameter of NaCl objects is processed as a string when the
property is set, however no validation is done to ensure that a string is
actually used to set this property. By setting this value to an integer
instead, a type confusion attack occurs and the integer value is used as a
pointer internally, and can lead to memory corruption etc.
