Status for tcpxtract/1.0.1-19
| Patch | Description | Author | Forwarded | Bugs | Origin | Last update |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 90_initialise_srch_machine_pointer.patch | initialize srch_machine pointer to null The srch_machine initialization checks that pointer is null before setting it. Ensure that initialization is performed by setting the pointer to null. |

| 100_terminate_lexem.patch | resolve ambiguity in the configuration grammar Explicitly match '(', ')' and ',' tokens instead of returning any character, so that unexpected characters are reported as syntax errors instead of being treated as valid tokens. Adapted from the original patch: the %error-verbose directive was dropped because the parser is generated with byacc, which does not support it. |

| 110_use-captured-packet-length.patch | use the captured packet length to bound payload reads The payload size was computed from header->len, the original wire length of the packet, while only header->caplen bytes are actually present in the capture buffer. With a malformed capture where the wire length is smaller than the link/IP/TCP header sizes, the subtraction underflows on size_t (the following "payload_size <= 0" check can never be true for an unsigned type) and search() then reads far beyond the capture buffer, crashing with a heap buffer overflow on crafted capture files. Use the captured length and bail out when there is not enough data captured. |

| 120_use-extract-prototype.patch | use the real extract() prototype The extract function was declared with an empty parameter list, a K&R style construct that was removed in C23. GCC 15 defaults to a newer C standard where such declarations mean "no arguments", turning the five argument calls into a build failure. Use a complete prototype, with a forward declaration to avoid the mutually recursive header situation mentioned in the comment. |

| 130_packet-structures-packed.patch | mark the packet overlay structures as packed The ethernet, IP and TCP header structures overlay unaligned packet data, so accessing their members is undefined behaviour that happens to work on architectures with tolerant unaligned accesses. Mark the structures as packed so the compiler emits the correct accesses on every architecture. |
