Subject: [PATCH] Avoid pre-decrement of pointer in big-endian CRC calculation.
|
|
|
|
There was a small optimization for PowerPCs to pre-increment a
|
|
pointer when accessing a word, instead of post-incrementing. This
|
|
required prefacing the loop with a decrement of the pointer,
|
|
possibly pointing before the object passed. This is not compliant
|
|
with the C standard, for which decrementing a pointer before its
|
|
allocated memory is undefined. When tested on a modern PowerPC
|
|
with a modern compiler, the optimization no longer has any effect.
|
|
Due to all that, and per the recommendation of a security audit of
|
|
the zlib code by Trail of Bits and TrustInSoft, in support of the
|
|
Mozilla Foundation, this "optimization" was removed, in order to
|
|
avoid the possibility of undefined behavior.
