Bugfix release that fixes an out of bounds read #118. This shouldn't have any security implications.
This release includes a lot of rework in the parser and includes the Cunity unit testing framework, as well as some fixes. I increased the minor version number because there were quite a lot of internal changes.
- New type for cJSON structs:
cJSON_Invalid
(#108)
- runtime checks for a lot of potential integer overflows
- fix incorrect return in cJSON_PrintBuffered (cf9d57d56cac21fc59465b8d26cf29bf6d2a87b3)
- fix several potential issues found by Coverity
- fix potentially undefined behavior when assigning big numbers to
valueint
(41e2837df1b1091643aff073f2313f6ff3cc10f4)- Numbers exceeding
INT_MAX
or lower thanINT_MIN
will be explicitly assigned tovalueint
asINT_MAX
andINT_MIN
respectively (saturation on overflow). - fix the
cJSON_SetNumberValue
macro (87f77274de6b3af00fb9b9a7f3b900ef382296c2), this slightly changes the behavior, see commit message
- Numbers exceeding
Started writing unit tests with the Cunity testing framework. Currently this covers the parser functions.
Also:
- Support for running the tests with Valgrind
- Support for compiling the tests with AddressSanitizer and UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer.
travis.yml
file for running unit tests on travis. (not enabled for the repository yet though #102)
After having unit tests for the parser function in place, I started refactoring the parser functions (as well as others) and making them easier to read and maintain.
- Use
strtod
from the standard library for parsing numbers (074766997246481dfc72bfa78f07898a2716473f) - Use goto-fail in several parser functions (#100)
- Rewrite/restructure all of the parsing functions to be easier to understand and have less code paths doing the same as another. (#109)
- Simplify the buffer allocation strategy to always doubling the needed amount (9f6fa94c91a87b71e4c6868dbf2ce431a48517b0)
- Combined
cJSON_AddItemToObject
andcJSON_AddItemToObjectCS
to one function (cf862d0fed7f9407e4b046d78d3d8050d2080d12)
- Prevent the usage of incompatible C and header versions via preprocessor directive (123bb1af7bfae41d805337fef4b41045ef6c7d25)
- Let CMake automatically detect compiler flags
- Add new compiler flags (
-Wundef
,-Wswitch-default
,-Wconversion
,-fstack-protector-strong
) (#98) - Change internal sizes from
int
tosize_t
(ecd5678527a6bc422da694e5be9e9979878fe6a0) - Change internal strings from
char*
tounsigned char*
(28b9ba4334e0f7309e867e874a31f395c0ac2474) - Add
const
in more places

- fixed a memory leak in
cJSON_Duplicate
, thanks @alperakcan (#81) - fix the
ENABLE_CUSTOM_COMPILER_FLAGS
cmake option
Rename internal boolean type, see #71.
Small bugfix release.
- Fixes a bug with the use of the cJSON structs type in cJSON_Utils, see d47339e2740360e6e0994527d5e4752007480f3a
- improve code readability
- initialize all variables
This is the first official versioned release of cJSON. It provides an API version for the shared library and improved Makefile and CMake build files.
