[PATCH 1/2] gpg-interface: handle missing " with " gracefully in parse_ssh_output()

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

 



If the output of ssh-keygen starts with "Good \"git\" signature for ",
but is not followed by " with " for some reason, then parse_ssh_output()
uses -1 as the len parameter of xmemdupz(), which in turn will end the
program.  Reject the signature and carry on instead in that case.

This code was added after v2.33.0.
Patch formatted with --inter-hunk-context=2 for easier review.

Silly bonus question: What's the purpose of the "+ 1" and "- 1", which
seem to cancel each other out?
