From 6ed791e768d83b40ed56c99dbb1ed72c1e49aae7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rich Felker Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2016 15:26:40 -0400 Subject: fix FILE buffer underflow in ungetwc commit 7e816a6487932cbb3cb71d94b609e50e81f4e5bf (version 1.1.11 release cycle) moved the code that performs wchar_t to multibyte conversion across code that used the resulting length in bytes, thereby breaking the unget buffer space check in ungetwc and clobbering up to three bytes below the start of the buffer. for allocated FILEs (all read-enabled FILEs except stdin), the underflow clobbers at most the FILE-specific locale pointer. no stores are performed through this pointer, but subsequent loads may result in a crash or mismatching encoding rule (UTF-8 multibyte vs byte-based). for stdin, the buffer lies in .bss and the underflow may clobber another object. in practice, for libc.so the adjacent object seems to be stderr's buffer, which is completely unused, but this could vary with linking options, or when static linking. applications which do not attempt to use more than one character of ungetwc pushback, or which do not use ungetwc, are not affected. --- src/stdio/ungetwc.c | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) (limited to 'src') diff --git a/src/stdio/ungetwc.c b/src/stdio/ungetwc.c index 80d6e203..9edf366f 100644 --- a/src/stdio/ungetwc.c +++ b/src/stdio/ungetwc.c @@ -8,7 +8,7 @@ wint_t ungetwc(wint_t c, FILE *f) { unsigned char mbc[MB_LEN_MAX]; - int l=1; + int l; locale_t *ploc = &CURRENT_LOCALE, loc = *ploc; FLOCK(f); @@ -17,8 +17,8 @@ wint_t ungetwc(wint_t c, FILE *f) *ploc = f->locale; if (!f->rpos) __toread(f); - if (!f->rpos || f->rpos < f->buf - UNGET + l || c == WEOF || - (!isascii(c) && (l = wctomb((void *)mbc, c)) < 0)) { + if (!f->rpos || c == WEOF || (l = wcrtomb((void *)mbc, c, 0)) < 0 || + f->rpos < f->buf - UNGET + l) { FUNLOCK(f); *ploc = loc; return WEOF; -- cgit v1.2.1
