cdparanoia: Assertion failed: (range.location + range.length <= dataLength), function __CFDataValidateRange, file CFData.c, line 235

[Jtaillan]

Whatever the command I give, I always get the same error. For example :

$ cdparanoia -A
cdparanoia III release 10.2 (September 11, 2008)

Using cdda library version: 10.2
Using paranoia library version: 10.2
Assertion failed: (range.location + range.length <= dataLength), function __CFDataValidateRange, file CFData.c, line 235

I *think* this worked flawlessly on MacOS 12.X

no assertions for me on an arm64 Mac running 13.2:

The reporter replied via email ​https://lists.macports.org/pipermail/macports-dev/2023-January/044912.html:

I think you tested without a music CD in the drive…

Could you please retry the test with a music CD? I can confirm I still see the problem with Ventura 13.2

[chrstphrchvz (Christopher Chavez)]

I have not reproduced this issue myself nor looked into it deeply, but from finding a similar error in another program (see ​https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/issues/3185 and ​https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/commit/770b71c), I suspect the bug is near ​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/blob/d3272007c0ea/audio/cdparanoia/files/osx_interface.patch#L459-L468: CFGetDataBytes() is being called with a range of CFRangeMake(0, CFDataGetLength(data) + 1), whereas ​https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corefoundation/1541940-cfdatagetbytes?language=objc says that a range of CFRangeMake(0, CFDataGetLength(data)) should be used when retrieving all data.

I don't have a CD drive for the arm64 Mac, but the assertion does happen on an Intel Ventura system when a CD is in the drive. Let me see if Chris' find fixes it.

[kencu (Ken)]

Yup, good find:

Attempting to set cdrom to full speed... 
	drive returned OK.

I changed just one line in osx_interface.patch, from:

+  buf_len = CFDataGetLength(data) + 1;

to

+  buf_len = CFDataGetLength(data);

I suppose we should test that on at least one or two older systems, but it seems a simple, solid fix so should be no problems. Presumably Ventura is increasingly strict about buffer overruns.

[kencu (Ken)]

yes, works fine with the new buffer length on Lion. LGTM.

In c8e15973bc3c1e1ab371bc0ee2de14209e639f17/macports-ports (master):

cdparanoia: fix buffer overrun on Ventura

this minor error has been in the patch forever, but
was flagged on Ventura.

kudos to @chrstphrchvz

Sorry but this doesn't fix the problem here :

[Jtaillan]

My mistake. I somehow mixed the old and the new version during my tests.

Th new version is indeed working great. Thanks for the fix!
