Functions emitting chunks size are using size_t integer to do so. Depending
on the code path, these functions can be called using an unsigned long long
integer (h1m->curr_len for instance). On 64-bits architectures, there is no
issue. But on the 32-bits architecture, it is a problem. size_t are 32-bits
integer so the 64-bits parameter will be casted to a 32-bits integer. For
chunk size exceeding 4GB, the wrong size will be emitted.
To fix the issue, these functions are now using true 64-bits
integer. h1s_consume_kop() was also modified accordingly.
In addition, when a size_t is compared to a 64-bits integer, an explicit
cast is used to be sure the right type is used.
This patch must be backported as far as 3.0. It must be backported after
1ef74fc7c ("BUG/MEDIUM: mux_h1: fix stack buffer overflow in
h1_append_chunk_size()").
HAProxy
HAProxy is a free, very fast and reliable reverse-proxy offering high availability, load balancing, and proxying for TCP and HTTP-based applications.
Installation
The INSTALL file describes how to build HAProxy. A list of packages is also available on the wiki.
Getting help
The discourse and the mailing-list are available for questions or configuration assistance. You can also use the slack or IRC channel. Please don't use the issue tracker for these.
The issue tracker is only for bug reports or feature requests.
Documentation
The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for ease of use. It is available in text format as well as HTML. The wiki is also meant to replace the old architecture guide.
