[PATCH] tree-walk: don't parse incorrect entries

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

 



The current code can access memory outside of the tree
buffer in the case of malformed tree entries.

This patch prevent this by:
* The rest of the buffer must be at least 24 bytes
  (at least 1 byte mode, 1 blank, at least one byte path name,
   1 NUL, 20 bytes sha1).
* Check that the last NUL (21 bytes before the end) is present.
  This ensurse, that strlen and get_mode stay within the buffer.
* The mode may not be empty. We have only to reject a blank at the begin,
  as the rest is handled by if (c < '0' || c > '7').
* The blank is ensured by get_mode.
* The path must contain at least one character.
