btrfs-progs: use ftw() unstead of system("du")
size_sourcedir() uses shockingly bad code to try and estimate the size of the files and directories in a subtree. - Its use of snprintf(), strcat(), and sscanf() with arbitrarily small on-stack buffers manages to overflow the stack a few times when given long file names. $ BIG=$(perl -e 'print "a" x 200') $ mkdir -p /tmp/$BIG/$BIG/$BIG/$BIG/$BIG $ mkfs.btrfs /tmp/img -r /tmp/$BIG/$BIG/$BIG/$BIG/$BIG *** stack smashing detected ***: mkfs.btrfs terminated - It passes raw paths to system() allowing interpreting file names as shell control characters. $ mkfs.btrfs /tmp/img -r /tmp/spacey\ dir/ du: cannot access `/tmp/spacey': No such file or directory du: cannot access `dir/': No such file or directory - It redirects du output to "temp_file" in the current directory, allowing overwriting of files through symlinks. $ echo hi > target $ ln -s target temp_file $ mkfs.btrfs /tmp/img -r /tmp/somedir/ $ cat target 3 /tmp/somedir/ This fixes the worst problems while maintaining -r functionality by tearing out the system() code and using ftw() to walk the source tree and sum up st.st_size.
