Short Description
Segmentation fault in libpq/PQconsumeInput on SSL connection
Long Description
When I start SSL connection and try to handle async query:
// run query action handler
void
SqlDialog::sendQuery (const QString &_query) {
PQsendQuery (m_conn, _query.utf8 ());
connect(m_idle_timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), this, processQuery())
}
// run in idle loop
void
SqlDialog::processQuery () {
// load data from server
PQconsumeInput (conn);
// if data not ready yet - return
if (PQisBusy (conn))
return;
// process next query result when data completly loaded
PQresult *res = PQgetResult (conn);
if (res) {
...
// wait next result
return;
}
// all results handled
disconnect(m_idle_timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), this, processQuery());
}
I get segmentation fault in PQconsumeInput. I run gdb
and found that pqsecure_read recursive call itself infinite on
SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ return code from libssl. I don't know why but
this code don't work well for me and cause Stack Overflow
(reported by OS (ALTLinux) as Segmentation Fault) error.
I solve this problem easy: instead recirsive call pqsecure_read
on SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ I simple return 0 as count of readed bytes.
n = pqsecure_read (...)
replace with
n = 0;
in pqsecure_read. I do that in pqsecure_write on SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE
also.
I check all places where pqsecure_* called and found that 0
handled currectly at all.
