From @dcollinsn

Greetings Porters,

I have compiled bleadperl with the afl-gcc compiler using​:

./Configure -Dusedevel -Dprefix='/usr/local/perl-afl' -Dcc='ccache afl-gcc' -Uuselongdouble -Duse64bitall -Doptimize=-g -Uversiononly -Uman1dir -Uman3dir -Dusequadmath -des
AFL_HARDEN=1 make && make test

And then fuzzed the resulting binary using​:

AFL_NO_VAR_CHECK=1 afl-fuzz -i in -o out bin/perl @​@​

After reducing testcases using `afl-tmin` and performing additional minimization by hand, I have located the following testcase that triggers an segfault in the perl interpreter. The testcase is the file below. On normal builds, this segfaults. On debug builds, this returns an assert fail.

dcollins@​nightshade64​:~$ cat f3i0
do
qr//dcollins@​nightshade64​:~$
dcollins@​nightshade64​:~$ od -c f3i0
0000000 d o \n q r / \0 /
0000010
dcollins@​nightshade64​:~$ ls -l f3i0

Greetings Porters,

I have compiled bleadperl with the afl-gcc compiler using​:

./Configure -Dusedevel -Dprefix='/usr/local/perl-afl' -Dcc='ccache
afl-gcc' -Uuselongdouble -Duse64bitall -Doptimize=-g -Uversiononly
-Uman1dir -Uman3dir -Dusequadmath -des
AFL_HARDEN=1 make && make test

And then fuzzed the resulting binary using​:

AFL_NO_VAR_CHECK=1 afl-fuzz -i in -o out bin/perl @​@​

After reducing testcases using `afl-tmin` and performing additional
minimization by hand, I have located the following testcase that
triggers an segfault in the perl interpreter. The testcase is the file
below. On normal builds, this segfaults. On debug builds, this returns
an assert fail.

Aborted

Some of the code added by v5.19.3-130-gc8028aa to pp_ctl.c​:pp_require (now in S_require_file) uses SvPVX(sv) and SvCUR(sv) without making sure that the SV is a PV.

I believe that is the culprit.

In fact, the code in question could just use the name and len variables it already has, from stringifying the sv a few lines earlier.

(I may be wrong here. I have not even run this through gdb or done a bisect. I simply looked at the code.)

This is fixed in 08f800f and has a perldelta entry in f8591e0.

I think these should be candidates for backporting to maint-5.24 and maint-5.22 (and maint-5.20 if we are still doing that).

Thank you for the report.
