Read the unsigned two-byte message length before decoding Bedrock status fields. Interpreting that prefix as UTF-8 can introduce a semicolon and shift the MOTD, version, and player counts. Preserve empty trailing fields and reject truncated payloads through the fixed-length byte reader. Keep the change in the existing packet handler. The upstream review asks for a focused protocol fix without extra classes or a new test harness.

Decode the unsigned two-byte length before the RakNet status message. A length byte equal to
0x3Bpreviously became a semicolon and shifted the MOTD and player counts.Read exactly the advertised message length and retain empty trailing fields. The fixed-length byte reader rejects truncated messages. The fix stays in the existing status handler.
