From 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Lemire Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2024 12:28:47 -0400 Subject: src: provide workaround for container-overflow Address a sanitizer error 'container-overflow', which happens only on systems where the standard library has been annotated to warn about reads between the std::string's end and the end of the its allocated memory (std::string:capacity). This reads are memory safe but they can also be a sign that there is a real bug. In the instance of issue 55584, it is not a bug, it is a false positive. In some instances, it is possible to indicate to the compiler that we want to disallow these checks to avoid the false positive, but I could not find documentation on this topic In a future release of simdjson, we will provide a more convenient function that avoids such ugly workaround. diff --git a/src/node_modules.cc b/src/node_modules.cc index dfd115a9eccc6b58d63a72ac450a1497354482dd..16a9f923148835daa95d3578e5941b284ff71434 100644 --- a/src/node_modules.cc +++ b/src/node_modules.cc @@ -100,11 +100,23 @@ const BindingData::PackageConfig* BindingData::GetPackageJSON( if (ReadFileSync(&package_config.raw_json, path.data()) < 0) { return nullptr; } + // In some systems, std::string is annotated to generate an + // AddressSanitizer: container-overflow error when reading beyond the end of + // the string even when we are still within the capacity of the string. + // https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/AddressSanitizerContainerOverflow + // https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/55584 + // The next lines are a workaround to avoid this false positive. + size_t json_length = package_config.raw_json.size(); + package_config.raw_json.append(simdjson::SIMDJSON_PADDING, ' '); + simdjson::padded_string_view json_view(package_config.raw_json.data(), + json_length, + package_config.raw_json.size()); + // End of workaround simdjson::ondemand::document document; simdjson::ondemand::object main_object; simdjson::error_code error = - binding_data->json_parser.iterate(package_config.raw_json).get(document); + binding_data->json_parser.iterate(json_view).get(document); const auto throw_invalid_package_config = [error_context, path, realm]() { if (error_context == nullptr) {
