[PATCH 15/20] commit-graph: check size of generations chunk

From
Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
Date
Oct 9, 2023, 21:05 UTC
Message-ID
<20231009210544.GO3282181@coredump.intra.peff.net>
In-Reply-To
<20231009205544.GA3281950@coredump.intra.peff.net>

We neither check nor record the size of the generations chunk we parse from a commit-graph file. This should have one uint32_t for each commit in the file; if it is smaller (due to corruption, etc), we may read outside the mapped memory.

The included test segfaults without this patch, as it shrinks the size considerably (and the chunk is near the end of the file, so we read off the end of the array rather than accidentally reading another chunk).

We can fix this by checking the size up front (like we do for other fixed-size chunks, like CDAT).
