[Qemu-devel] [PULL 4/4] json: Fix % handling when not interpolating |

From: Christophe Fergeau <address@hidden>
Commit 8bca4613 added support for %% in json strings when interpolating,
but in doing so broke handling of % when not interpolating.
When parse_string() is fed a string token containing '%', it skips the
'%' regardless of ctxt->ap, i.e. even it's not interpolating. If the
'%' is the string's last character, it fails an assertion. Else, it
"merely" swallows the '%'.
Fix parse_string() to handle '%' specially only when interpolating.
To gauge the bug's impact, let's review non-interpolating users of this
parser, i.e. code passing NULL context to json_message_parser_init():
* tests/check-qjson.c, tests/test-qobject-input-visitor.c,
tests/test-visitor-serialization.c
Plenty of tests, but we still failed to cover the buggy case.
* monitor.c: QMP input
* qga/main.c: QGA input
* qobject_from_json():
- qobject-input-visitor.c: JSON command line option arguments of
-display and -blockdev
Reproducer: -blockdev '{"%"}'
- block.c: JSON pseudo-filenames starting with "json:"
Reproducer: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1668244#c3
- block/rbd.c: JSON key pairs
Pseudo-filenames starting with "rbd:".
Command line, QMP and QGA input are trusted.
Filenames are trusted when they come from command line, QMP or HMP.
They are untrusted when they come from from image file headers.
Example: QCOW2 backing file name. Note that this is *not* the security
boundary between host and guest. It's the boundary between host and an
image file from an untrusted source.
Neither failing an assertion nor skipping a character in a filename of
your choice looks exploitable. Note that we don't support compiling
with NDEBUG.
