Revision 447ac906e189535e77dcb1f4bbe3f1bc917d4c12 authored by Patrick Steinhardt on 01 December 2022, 14:45:31 UTC, committed by Junio C Hamano on 05 December 2022, 06:14:16 UTC
The `struct attr_stack` tracks the stack of all patterns together with
their attributes. When parsing a gitattributes file that has more than
2^31 such patterns though we may trigger multiple out-of-bounds reads on
64 bit platforms. This is because while the `num_matches` variable is an
unsigned integer, we always use a signed integer to iterate over them.

I have not been able to reproduce this issue due to memory constraints
on my systems. But despite the out-of-bounds reads, the worst thing that
can seemingly happen is to call free(3P) with a garbage pointer when
calling `attr_stack_free()`.

Fix this bug by using unsigned integers to iterate over the array. While
this makes the iteration somewhat awkward when iterating in reverse, it
is at least better than knowingly running into an out-of-bounds read.
While at it, convert the call to `ALLOC_GROW` to use `ALLOC_GROW_BY`
instead.

struct strbuf;

/* Help to copy the thing properly quoted for the shell safety.
 * any single quote is replaced with '\'', any exclamation point
 * is replaced with '\!', and the whole thing is enclosed in a
 * single quote pair.
 *
 * For example, if you are passing the result to system() as an
 * argument:
 *
 * sprintf(cmd, "foobar %s %s", sq_quote(arg0), sq_quote(arg1))
 *
 * would be appropriate.  If the system() is going to call ssh to
 * run the command on the other side:
 *
 * sprintf(cmd, "git-diff-tree %s %s", sq_quote(arg0), sq_quote(arg1));
 * sprintf(rcmd, "ssh %s %s", sq_quote(host), sq_quote(cmd));
 *
 * Note that the above examples leak memory!  Remember to free result from
 * sq_quote() in a real application.
 *
 * sq_quote_buf() writes to an existing buffer of specified size; it
 * will return the number of characters that would have been written
 * excluding the final null regardless of the buffer size.
 *
 * sq_quotef() quotes the entire formatted string as a single result.
