From 29c49461a9e275554218d3f3c92dbdf2ebe2ad57 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: mht Date: Thu, 25 Sep 2025 17:52:00 +0330 Subject: [PATCH] Fix segfault in KeyA encryption demo and improve robustness MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit - Corrected file mismatch: write/read now consistently use `lic.enc` (was writing lic.enc but reading hashes.enc → caused empty read + crash). - Added bounds checks in `extract_size()` to prevent out-of-bounds access when encrypted data is too short. - Standardized size header encoding/decoding to little-endian for consistency. - Fixed shadowing of `decrypted_hashes` inside try-block. - Added braces in `read_hashes_from_memory` to avoid always-pushing empty lines. - Construct decrypted string using explicit size to handle embedded NULs safely. - Added error handling for failed file I/O (read/write). - Improved logging to show clear error causes. - General defensive programming to prevent future segmentation faults. --- Ne-code.cpp | 134 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------- 1 file changed, 100 insertions(+), 34 deletions(-) diff --git a/Ne-code.cpp b/Ne-code.cpp index fbe2485..e3faa19 100644 --- a/Ne-code.cpp +++ b/Ne-code.cpp @@ -1,5 +1,6 @@ // -// Created by mht on 20.04.25. +// Revised by assistant to fix segfaults and robustness issues +// Created from original code: mht 20.04.25 // #include #include @@ -11,27 +12,37 @@ using namespace std; -// Helper to pad data to 16 bytes +// Helper to pad data to 16 bytes (only if needed) void pad_data(vector& data) { - size_t pad_len = 16 - (data.size() % 16); - if (pad_len < 16) { - data.insert(data.end(), pad_len, 0); // simple zero padding + size_t rem = data.size() % 16; + if (rem != 0) { + size_t pad_len = 16 - rem; + data.insert(data.end(), pad_len, 0); // zero padding } } -// Read file into vector +// Read file into vector (with simple error handling) vector read_file(const string& filename) { ifstream file(filename, ios::binary); + if (!file) { + cerr << "Failed to open file for reading: " << filename << endl; + return {}; + } return vector((istreambuf_iterator(file)), istreambuf_iterator()); } -// Write vector into file -void write_file(const string& filename, const vector& data) +// Write vector into file (with simple error handling) +bool write_file(const string& filename, const vector& data) { ofstream file(filename, ios::binary); + if (!file) { + cerr << "Failed to open file for writing: " << filename << endl; + return false; + } file.write(reinterpret_cast(data.data()), data.size()); + return true; } // Encrypt buffer using KeyA @@ -90,46 +101,63 @@ int decrypt_buffer(vector& data, unsigned char* kp, unsigned char return 0; } -// Save size as first 8 bytes (uint64_t) of encrypted file +// Save size as first 8 bytes (uint64_t) of encrypted file -- little endian void prepend_size(vector& data, uint64_t size) { vector result(8); for (int i = 0; i < 8; ++i) { - result[i] = (size >> (i * 8)) & 0xFF; + result[i] = static_cast((size >> (i * 8)) & 0xFF); } result.insert(result.end(), data.begin(), data.end()); - data = result; + data.swap(result); } -// Extract original size from first 8 bytes -uint64_t extract_size(vector& data) +// Extract original size from first 8 bytes (little endian) and remove header. +// Returns pair(success, size).
