 Replying to [comment:12 pulkomandy]:

app_server can try to do some validation, but if we send completely
 bogus data, it's difficult to catch it all there.

 app_server must validate all data that come from another processes.
 Otherwise specially crafted program can directly send data to server port
 link to crash app_server or install exploit.
