Subject: [PATCH] upload-pack: don't send null character in abort message to the client
Date: Sun, 25 Feb 2024 19:34:52 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240225183452.1939334-1-szeder.dev@gmail.com> (raw)
Since 583b7ea31b (upload-pack/fetch-pack: support side-band
communication, 2006-06-21) the abort message sent by upload-pack in
case of possible repository corruption ends with a null character.
This can be seen in several test cases in 't5530-upload-pack-error.sh'
where 'grep <pattern> output.err' often reports "Binary file
output.err matches" because of that null character.
The reason for this is that the abort message is defined as a string
literal, and we pass its size to the send function as
sizeof(abort_msg), which also counts the terminating null character.
Use strlen() instead to avoid sending that terminating null character.
