When we detect an invalid tag-name header in a tag object, like, "tag foo bar\n", we feed the pointer starting at "foo bar" to a printf "%s" formatter. This shows the name, as we want, but then it keeps printing the rest of the tag buffer, rather than stopping at the end of the line. Our tests did not notice because they look only for the matching line, but the bug is that we print much more than we wanted to. So we also adjust the test to be more exact. Note that when fscking tags with "index-pack --strict", this is even worse. index-pack does not add a trailing NUL-terminator after the object, so we may actually read past the buffer and print uninitialized memory. Running t5302 with valgrind does notice the bug for that reason. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> --- I'm generally nervous about adding too-specific stderr wording or formatting to our tests, as I do not want them to be brittle. But I do not actually think this is substantially different than what other fsck tests do (i.e., they are already grepping for _half_ the wording already, so if it changes, they are likely to break, too). If we care, the test can check test_line_count or similar to make sure there isn't extra data. But I think the way I have written it below is a lot easier for a reader coming later to understand what is going on. fsck.c | 3 ++- t/t1450-fsck.sh | 8 ++++++-- 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/fsck.c b/fsck.c index 2fffa43..88c92e8 100644 --- a/fsck.c +++ b/fsck.c @@ -423,7 +423,8 @@ static int fsck_tag_buffer(struct tag *tag, const char *data, } strbuf_addf(&sb, "refs/tags/%.*s", (int)(eol - buffer), buffer); if (check_refname_format(sb.buf, 0)) - error_func(&tag->object, FSCK_WARN, "invalid 'tag' name: %s", buffer); + error_func(&tag->object, FSCK_WARN, "invalid 'tag' name: %.*s", + (int)(eol - buffer), buffer); buffer = eol + 1; if (!skip_prefix(buffer, "tagger ", &buffer)) diff --git a/t/t1450-fsck.sh b/t/t1450-fsck.sh index 019fddd..57ccce5 100755 --- a/t/t1450-fsck.sh +++ b/t/t1450-fsck.sh @@ -229,8 +229,12 @@ test_expect_success 'tag with incorrect tag name & missing tagger' ' echo $tag >.git/refs/tags/wrong && test_when_finished "git update-ref -d refs/tags/wrong" && git fsck --tags 2>out && - grep "invalid .tag. name" out && - grep "expected .tagger. line" out + + cat >expect <<-EOF && + warning in tag $tag: invalid '\''tag'\'' name: wrong name format + warning in tag $tag: invalid format - expected '\''tagger'\'' line + EOF + test_cmp expect out ' test_expect_success 'tag with bad tagger' ' -- 2.2.0.390.gf60752d -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
