[libvirt] [PATCH v2] conf: virDomainDefValidateInternal prohibit some characters in shmem name
Posted by Simon Kobyda 5 years, 9 months ago
XML shmem name will not include character '/', and will not be equal to strings
"." or "..", as shmem name is used in a path.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1192400
---

Changes in V2 
	- Added error reports
	- Error situation will happen only if shmem name is equal to
	  "." or "..", however their occurence in a name compromised of more
          characters is allowed.

Validate that the provided XML shmem name is not directory specific "."
or ".." names as well as ensuring that there is no path separator '/' in
the name.

I believe this actually belongs in virDomainDeviceDefValidateInternal
for case VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_SHMEM.

Also, should the docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng be modified? Currently it
has:

  <define name="shmem">
    <element name="shmem">
      <attribute name="name">
        <data type="string">
          <param name="pattern">[^/]*</param>
        </data>

Consider how other names are limited in their scope. The basictypes.rng
has a number of examples.

Naturally, the problem with changing it is that someone somewhere will
complain, but libvirt used to accept this other format. Right now I
would think the scope a bit too broad.

If we are to limit the name we should also document in
docs/formatdomain.html.in that the shmem name is "limited" in name to
avoid the '/' character, ".", and "..".

BTW: My regex isn't that good, but it would seem '/' is an invalid
character by XML standards even though the code never checked for it.
Using virt-xml-validate <file> <schema> would "validate" whether someone
provides valid XML.
