It requires the inefficient process of reading the entire data into memory than duplicating it again in base64 format, and then copying it again in the JSON serializer / monitor code. For arbitrary general purpose file access, especially for large files, use a real file transfer program or use a network block device, not the QEMU guest agent. To avoid bug reports as BZ#1594054 (CVE-2018-12617), follow his suggestion to put a low, hard limit on "count" in the guest agent QAPI schema, and don't allow count to be larger than 48 MB.
