[libvirt] [PATCH] virFileReadLimFD: diagnose maxlen <= 0, rather than passing it on...

Not urgent. From: Jim Meyering <meyering(a)redhat.com&gt; Date: Wed, 3 Mar 2010 11:42:11 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] virFileReadLimFD: diagnose maxlen <= 0, rather than passing it on... to saferead_lim, which interprets it as a size_t. * src/util/util.c (virFileReadLimFD): Do not malfunction when maxlen < -1. Return -1,EINVAL in that case. Handle maxlen==0 in the same manner. --- src/util/util.c | 11 +++++++++-- 1 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/util/util.c b/src/util/util.c index 34c585d..7a3a3c4 100644 --- a/src/util/util.c +++ b/src/util/util.c @@ -1030,10 +1030,17 @@ saferead_lim (int fd, size_t max_len, size_t *length) /* A wrapper around saferead_lim that maps a failure due to exceeding the maximum size limitation to EOVERFLOW. */ -int virFileReadLimFD(int fd, int maxlen, char **buf) +int +virFileReadLimFD(int fd, int maxlen, char **buf) { size_t len; - char *s = saferead_lim (fd, maxlen+1, &len); + char *s; + + if (maxlen <= 0) { + errno = EINVAL; + return -1; + } + s = saferead_lim (fd, maxlen+1, &len); if (s == NULL) return -1; if (len > maxlen || (int)len != len) { -- 1.7.0.1.464.g0adc7
