Subject: [PATCH] giochannel: Fix memcmp() off the end of the buffer with long
terminators
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
If the line terminator is longer than a single byte, and the current
line extends to the end of the buffer, and the buffer (which is a
`GString`) is near a power of two in length (as that’s how `GString`s
are allocated) it’s possible for the `memcmp()` which checks the
terminator to read off the end of the string buffer.
Fix that by checking the terminator length against the last character
before calling `memcmp()`. Add a unit test.
Spotted by linhlhq as #YWH-PGM9867-199. The fix is theirs (validated by
me), and the unit test is adapted from their proof of concept.
Fixes: #3925
CVE: CVE-2026-58013
Upstream-Status: Backport [https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/commit/6a2583dec39bfe05553b16d9b7419d6c2a257244]
Backport Changes:
- Added the <stdint.h> include for the regression test because these target
branches do not otherwise expose uint8_t in glib/tests/io-channel.c.
