📝 WalkthroughSummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughVariant object field lookup now validates row metadata, resolves dictionary IDs to names, and searches name-ordered fields. Path resolution passes row metadata to the updated lookup while preserving malformed-data and value-bound checks. ChangesVariant object field lookup
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to Malformed Parquet Variant data with an out-of-range field ID could trigger invalid memory access or incorrect field lookup results. The bounds validation and safe offset computation should be fixed before merging. Possibly related PRs

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔴 Critical | ⚡ Quick win
Validate field_id against num_meta_entries in name_for_id.
name_for_id never checks that field_id is inside the dictionary. probe_id at Line 540 comes from the object's field_ids list, which is untrusted data, and narrow_cast only bounds it to size_type max.
Two consequences follow:
meta_offsets_start + field_id * meta_offset_sizeisintarithmetic. A largeprobe_idoverflows it, which is undefined behavior in device code.- For any
field_id >= num_meta_entries, the two reads land in the string-data region instead of the offset table. The decoded "name" is then arbitrary, so the binary search can take the wrong branch or report a false match on malformed input.
Add the range check and compute the entry positions in 64 bits.
Please also add a unit test with an object whose field_id exceeds the dictionary size, to lock in the empty-span result.

Description
locate_object_fieldmaps an integer dictionary ID to the encoded bytes of a field value within a Parquet Variant object blob. This function previously did a linear scan over all field IDs to find the matching entry. When field IDs within an object are sorted by name rather than by ID value, this PR binary searches on each candidate's name (resolved in O(1) via the metadata offset table) instead of the raw ID, making the search O(log N).Checklist
