Title:
  Possible null pointer dereferencing in
  modules/ca/src/client/udpiiu.cpp

Status in EPICS Base:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Codacy report an Error level issue on a possible null pointer
  dereferencing  modules/ca/src/client/udpiiu.cpp line 950.

  If the function bool udpiiu::pushDatagramMsg ( epicsGuard < epicsMutex > & guard, const caHdr & msg, const void * pExt, ca_uint16_t extsize ) is called with the following parameters:
  1) pExt == null
  2) extsize > 0

  This will cause the memcpy to read extsize bytes from null, presumably
  crashing the code.
