Support variadic function calls in checked scope #1174
Conversation
We add support for calling variadic functions in checked scope. These are functions like printf, scanf, etc that take a format string and have a variable number of arguments. We implement checking of arguments to these functions. Following is a list of some important checks that we implement in checked scope for these functions: - check that the argument corresponding to the %s format specifier is a null-terminated array. - all warnings emitted by the -Wformat family of flags have been converted to errors in checked scope.

checkedc/checkedc-clang#1174 added support to call variadic functions like printf/scanf, etc within checked scope. As a result, tests that check for errors if such functions are invoked in checked scope started failing. We fix one such test in this PR.
I realize I may have waited a little too late to post this, but I tested this PR and found several holes in the new checking. If you save the code below as #pragma CHECKED_SCOPE on
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#define TEST(_name) else if (strcmp(test_name, #_name) == 0)
int main(int argc, _Nt_array_ptr<_Nt_array_ptr<char>> argv : count(argc)) {
_Nt_array_ptr<char> test_name = argv[1];
if (!test_name) {
fprintf(stderr, "No test name specified\n");
return 1;
}
if (0) {}
TEST(percent_n) {
// Missing check that %n argument is a _Ptr.
int arr _Checked[1];
printf("hello\n%n", arr + 123456789);
}
TEST(scanf_scalar) {
// Missing check that _any_ scalar scanf argument is a _Ptr.
int arr _Checked[1];
sscanf("42", "%d", arr + 123456789);
}
TEST(printf_s_count) {
// Missing check that printf %s argument has at least count(0).
char buf _Nt_checked[1];
printf("%s", buf + 123456789);
}
TEST(scanf_p) {
// scanf reads an arbitrary _Ptr<void> via %p. The right solution here may
// be to disallow _Ptr<void>
// (https://github.com/microsoft/checkedc/issues/335). I couldn't find any
// other way to exploit %p, but that doesn't mean there isn't any.
_Ptr<void> q = 0;
sscanf("0x1", "%p", &q);
_Ptr<char> p = (_Ptr<char>)q;
(*p)++;
}
TEST(scanf_s_overflow) {
// scanf %s overflows the output buffer. I guess the compiler should require
// the format string to specify a maximum width and check it against the
// bounds of the argument?
char field _Nt_checked[10];
char input _Nt_checked[1000];
memset(input, 'x', sizeof input - 1);
sscanf(input, "%s", field);
}
else {
fprintf(stderr, "Unknown test name\n");
return 1;
}
return 0;

Thanks @mattmccutchen-cci for identifying these issues. I have filed #1178 to track these. |

We add support for calling variadic functions in checked scope. These are
functions like printf, scanf, etc that take a format string and have a variable
number of arguments. We implement checking of arguments to these functions.
Following is a list of some important checks that we implement in checked scope
for these functions:
