[jira] Created: (HARMONY-1376) [launcher] properties buffer may be overflowed

[launcher] properties buffer may be overflowed
----------------------------------------------

                 Key: HARMONY-1376
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-1376
             Project: Harmony
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Classlib
            Reporter: Alexey Varlamov


The launcher parses "harmonyvm.properties" into a buffer of fixed size and without boundaries checking.
If the file has more than 20 lines with VM arguments, segfault occurs.

[jira] Updated: (HARMONY-1376) [launcher] properties buffer may be overflowed

Posted by "Alexey Varlamov (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-1376?page=all ]

Alexey Varlamov updated HARMONY-1376:
-------------------------------------

    Attachment: H-1376.diff 

Fixed number of issues with "harmonyvm.properties":
1) Robust file parsing with any EOLs;
2) The buffer overflow mentioned above;
3) Added support for %VM_DIR% tokens, now easy to add any others;
4) Command-line "-Xbootclasspath:" option now really overrides whole BCP.

Also removed some unused parameters from internal declarations.

--------------------------------------------

Thanks.  Staring.  Only grumble is that you did some refactoring too unrelated to the fixing of properties handling, which is distracting.  But still, nice work.  Need to stare a bit more...

Alexey Varlamov commented on HARMONY-1376:
------------------------------------------

I strived to not touch extra code unrelated to createVMArgs(), but there was a chain of unused params going quite deeply through the call stack - so I fixed all that in one shot. Sorry if it bothers...

Also, I had to enhance shared parser a bit - e.g. add a support for keys with empty values, etc. And this gets the parser closer to j.l.Properties.load() behavior.
