Subject: [PATCH RFC] sscanf: Fix integer overflow with sscanf field width
Hi,
This fixes 53809751ac23 ("sscanf: don't ignore field widths for numeric
conversions"). sscanf overflows integers with simple strings such as dates.
As an example, consider
r = sscanf("20190523123456", "%4d%2d%2d%2d%2d%2d",
&year, &month, &day,
&hour, &minute, &second);
pr_info("%d %04d-%02d-%2d %02d:%02d:%02d\n",
r,
year, month, day,
hour, minute, second);
On a 32-bit machine this prints
6 0000-05-23 12:34:56
where the year is zero, and not 2019 as expected. The reason is that sscanf
attempts to read 20190523123456 as a whole integer and then divide it with
10^10 to obtain 2019, which obviously fails. Of course, 64-bit machines fail
similarly on longer numerical strings.
I'm offering a simple patch to correct this below. The idea is to have a
variant of _parse_integer() called _parse_integer_end(), with the ability
to stop consuming digits. The functions
simple_{strtol,strtoll,strtoul,strtoull}()
now have the corresponding
sscanf_{strtol,strtoll,strtoul,strtoull}()
taking a field width into account. There are some code duplication issues
etc. so one might consider making more extensive changes than these.
What are your thoughts?
Fredrik
