[PATCH 5/5] packfile: detect overflow in .idx file size checks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In load_idx(), we check that the .idx file is sized appropriately for
the number of objects it claims to have. We recently fixed the case
where the number of objects caused our expected size to overflow a
32-bit unsigned int, and we switched to size_t.

On a 64-bit system, this is fine; our size_t covers any expected size.
On a 32-bit system, though, it won't. The file may claim to have 2^31
objects, which will overflow even a size_t.

This doesn't hurt us at all for a well-formed idx file. A 32-bit system
would already have failed to mmap such a file, since it would be too
big. But an .idx file which _claims_ to have 2^31 objects but is
actually much smaller would fool our check.

This is a broken file, and for the most part we don't care that much
what happens. But:

  - it's a little friendlier to notice up front "woah, this file is
    broken" than it is to get nonsense results

  - later access of the data assumes that the loading function
    sanity-checked that we have at least enough bytes for the regular
    object-id table. A malformed .idx file could lead to an
    out-of-bounds read.

So let's use our overflow-checking functions to make sure that we're not
fooled by a malformed file.
