Surely we should read s->response_pos off the wire before
validating it rather than after?

Also, your checks on arglen aren't sufficient. Consider
the case where the attacker:
 * sets mode to SSI_SD_RESPONSE
 * sets arglen to something huge
 * sets response_pos to 0
 * gets the guest to repeatedly provoke calls to ssi_sd_transfer

We'll happily read off the end of the s->response[] buffer,
because our "when do we stop returning response bytes" check
is "s->response_pos >= s->arglen".
