I never triggered the bug itself but this can be a security concern if we want to prevent potential (depending on how weechat handles unicode) remote crashes.
Using bytes.decode("utf-8", "replace") should fix the issue.
Also, note that packet handling does no error catching whatsoever, so even a buggy network connection might be able to crash the packet handler.
