Since commit c54980ab83 (list-objects-filter: convert filter_spec to a strbuf, 2022-09-11), building with SANITIZE=undefined triggers an error in t5616. The problem is that we end up with a strbuf that has been zero-initialized instead of via STRBUF_INIT. Feeding that strbuf to strbuf_addbuf() in list_objects_filter_copy() means we will call memcpy like: memcpy(some_actual_buffer, NULL, 0); This works on most systems because we're copying zero bytes, but it is technically undefined behavior to ever pass NULL to memcpy. Even though c54980ab83 is where the bug manifests, that is only because we switched away from a string_list, which is OK with being zero-initialized (though it may cause other problems by not duplicating the strings, it happened to be OK in this instance). The actual bug is caused by the commit before that, 2a01bdedf8 (list-objects-filter: add and use initializers, 2022-09-11). There we consistently initialize the top-level filter structs, but we forgot the dynamically allocated ones we stick in filter_options->sub when creating combined filters. Note that we need to fix two spots here: where we parse a "combine:" filter, but also where we transform from a single-filter into a combined one after seeing multiple "--filter" options. In the second spot, we'll do some minor refactoring to avoid repeating our very-long array index. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> --- This is a regression in v2.38.0-rc1. The fix should go on top of jk/list-objects-filter-cleanup. Sorry to have missed it before. I was carefully running all of those commits through SANITIZE=address (because I was worried about missing exactly this kind of thing), but for some reason I didn't add UBSan. The existing BUG() I added there didn't catch it either, because the sub-filter creation doesn't call into parse_list_objects_filter() directly. We could try to beef that up with more BUG()s, but I don't think it's worthwhile. The point there is to catch outside callers not initializing correctly; this was just a bug in the list-objects code itself. list-objects-filter-options.c | 10 +++++++--- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/list-objects-filter-options.c b/list-objects-filter-options.c index d46ce4acc4..5339660238 100644 --- a/list-objects-filter-options.c +++ b/list-objects-filter-options.c @@ -143,6 +143,7 @@ static int parse_combine_subfilter( ALLOC_GROW_BY(filter_options->sub, filter_options->sub_nr, 1, filter_options->sub_alloc); + list_objects_filter_init(&filter_options->sub[new_index]); decoded = url_percent_decode(subspec->buf); @@ -263,6 +264,8 @@ void parse_list_objects_filter( parse_error = gently_parse_list_objects_filter( filter_options, arg, &errbuf); } else { + struct list_objects_filter_options *sub; + /* * Make filter_options an LOFC_COMBINE spec so we can trivially * add subspecs to it. @@ -273,10 +276,11 @@ void parse_list_objects_filter( filter_spec_append_urlencode(filter_options, arg); ALLOC_GROW_BY(filter_options->sub, filter_options->sub_nr, 1, filter_options->sub_alloc); + sub = &filter_options->sub[filter_options->sub_nr - 1]; - parse_error = gently_parse_list_objects_filter( - &filter_options->sub[filter_options->sub_nr - 1], arg, - &errbuf); + list_objects_filter_init(sub); + parse_error = gently_parse_list_objects_filter(sub, arg, + &errbuf); } if (parse_error) die("%s", errbuf.buf); -- 2.38.0.rc1.583.ga560cd8328
