From 59a255aef05633c45c780987fa0c861cda9006f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Sat, 18 Aug 2018 09:16:28 -0700 Subject: sideband: do not read beyond the end of input The caller of maybe_colorize_sideband() gives a counted buffer , but the callee checked src[] as if it were a NUL terminated buffer. If src[] had all isspace() bytes in it, we would have made n negative, and then (1) made number of strncasecmp() calls to see if the remaining bytes in src[] matched keywords, reading beyond the end of the array (this actually happens even if n does not go negative), and/or (2) called strbuf_add() with negative count, most likely triggering the "you want to use way too much memory" error due to unsigned integer overflow. Fix both issues by making sure we do not go beyond &src[n]. In the longer term we may want to accept size_t as parameter for clarity (even though we know that a sideband message we are painting typically would fit on a line on a terminal and int is sufficient). Write it down as a NEEDSWORK comment.
