Subject: [PATCH 0/2] fix read past end of array in alternates files
Date: Mon, 18 Sep 2017 11:51:00 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170918155059.54f7z6cnrl47f5el@sigill.intra.peff.net> (raw)

This series fixes a regression in v2.11.1 where we might read past the
end of an mmap'd buffer. It was introduced in cf3c635210, but I didn't
base the patch on there, for a few reasons:

  1. There's a trivial conflict when merging up (because of
     git_open_noatime() becoming just git_open() in the inerim).

  2. The reproduction advice relies on our SANITIZE Makefile knob, which
     didn't exist back then.

  3. The second patch does not apply there because we don't have
     warn_on_fopen_errors(). Though admittedly it could be applied
     separately after merging up; it's just a clean-up on top.

It does apply on the current "maint".

  [1/2]: read_info_alternates: read contents into strbuf
  [2/2]: read_info_alternates: warn on non-trivial errors
