[PATCH 0/3] net: use strnstr() for lwip_strnstr()

[Heinrich Schuchardt]

Using strstr() instead of strnstr() creates a security concern.

* Implement missing library function strnstr() and add unit tests.
* Use it for lwIP.

This won't return s1 when s2 == NULL, will it?
Why not use a known good implementation such as [1]?

Why should it? That's a broken caller. You can't call str* functions
with NULL pointers. It's ok for s2 to point at an empty string, in which
case l2 is 0, so the very first memcmp() is guaranteed to succeed and
yes, this will return s1 in that case.

As passing "" as s2 is likely quite rare, the current short-circuiting
of that case is pointless.

Licensing? Also, that's quite unreadable, so please don't.

Sorry I read the strncmp() man page too quickly and mistook empty string
for NULL :-/

Agreed.

This leads to:

as a failure, that I only end up seeing in Azure (I didn't track down if
there's some good reason we don't see this in Gitlab).

Hello Tom,

It is not really clear how

     Lab failure: Timeout executing 'tftpboot 40400000 u-boot.bin

could be related to this patch series.

     git grep -ni strstr net/

only shows usage in wget but not in tftp.

Is this test result reproducible in Azure?

Best regards

Heinrich

Agreed.

Yes, every time. And 1/3 + 2/3 pass, with 3/3 is when it fails.

This was premature, sorry, I need to re-test this in Azure before
pushing.
