Eryk Sun added the comment: Here's a patch for Python 3 that modifies the Reg2Py function in PC/winreg.c for the case of REG_SZ/REG_EXPAND_SZ. The existing code took a conservative approach by only removing a null character at the end of a buffer. I modified it to use wcsnlen instead.
I added a test that depends on setting a string containing null values via winreg.SetValueEx. It could be rewritten using ctypes if it's desired to also prevent the setting of strings that contain null values. Note that the patch also fixes an error in the delete_tree method. The desired access for OpenKey was mistakenly being passed as the "reserved" argument. ---------- keywords: +patch stage: test needed -> patch review Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file41220/issue25778_py3_1.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25778> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
