Subject: [PATCH] yylex: Make lexer fatal errors actually be fatal
|
|
|
80913e |
|
|
|
80913e |
When presented with a command that can't be tokenized to anything
|
|
|
80913e |
smaller than YYLMAX characters, the parser calls YY_FATAL_ERROR(errmsg),
|
|
|
80913e |
expecting that will stop further processing, as such:
|
|
|
80913e |
|
|
|
80913e |
#define YY_DO_BEFORE_ACTION \
|
|
|
80913e |
yyg->yytext_ptr = yy_bp; \
|
|
|
80913e |
yyleng = (int) (yy_cp - yy_bp); \
|
|
|
80913e |
yyg->yy_hold_char = *yy_cp; \
|
|
|
80913e |
*yy_cp = '\0'; \
|
|
|
80913e |
if ( yyleng >= YYLMAX ) \
|
|
|
80913e |
YY_FATAL_ERROR( "token too large, exceeds YYLMAX" ); \
|
|
|
80913e |
yy_flex_strncpy( yytext, yyg->yytext_ptr, yyleng + 1 , yyscanner); \
|
|
|
80913e |
yyg->yy_c_buf_p = yy_cp;
|
|
|
80913e |
|
|
|
80913e |
The code flex generates expects that YY_FATAL_ERROR() will either return
|
|
|
80913e |
for it or do some form of longjmp(), or handle the error in some way at
|
|
|
80913e |
least, and so the strncpy() call isn't in an "else" clause, and thus if
|
|
|
80913e |
YY_FATAL_ERROR() is *not* actually fatal, it does the call with the
|
|
|
80913e |
questionable limit, and predictable results ensue.
|
|
|
80913e |
|
|
|
80913e |
Unfortunately, our implementation of YY_FATAL_ERROR() is:
|
|
|
80913e |
|
|
|
80913e |
#define YY_FATAL_ERROR(msg) \
|
|
|
80913e |
do { \
|
|
|
80913e |
grub_printf (_("fatal error: %s\n"), _(msg)); \
|
|
|
80913e |
} while (0)
|
|
|
80913e |
|
|
|
80913e |
The same pattern exists in yyless(), and similar problems exist in users
|
|
|
80913e |
of YY_INPUT(), several places in the main parsing loop,
|
|
|
80913e |
yy_get_next_buffer(), yy_load_buffer_state(), yyensure_buffer_stack,
|
|
|
80913e |
yy_scan_buffer(), etc.
|
|
|
80913e |
|
|
|
80913e |
All of these callers expect YY_FATAL_ERROR() to actually be fatal, and
|
|
|
80913e |
the things they do if it returns after calling it are wildly unsafe.
