            Bug ID: 26353
           Summary: ftw/nftw:When a large nopenfd parameter is entered,
                    ftw() or nftw() triggers stack overflow.
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.31
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: nixiaoming at huawei dot com
                CC: drepper.fsp at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

Invoke ftw_startup() in ftw()/nftw(). 
ftw_startup() does not verify the upper limit of descriptors, and alloca is
used to apply for stack space, triggering stack overflow. 

------- code -----
io/ftw.c:
814 /* Entry points.  */
815
816 int
817 FTW_NAME (const char *path, FTW_FUNC_T func, int descriptors)
818 {
819   return ftw_startup (path, 0, func, descriptors, 0); 
820 }

833 int
834 NFTW_NAME (const char *path, NFTW_FUNC_T func, int descriptors, int flags)
835 {
836   return ftw_startup (path, 1, func, descriptors, flags);
837 }


io/ftw.c:

627 static int
628 __attribute ((noinline))
629 ftw_startup (const char *dir, int is_nftw, void *func, int descriptors,
630              int flags)
631 {
632   struct ftw_data data;
633   struct STAT st;
634   int result = 0;
635   int save_err;
636   int cwdfd = -1;
637   char *cwd = NULL;
638   char *cp;
639
640   /* First make sure the parameters are reasonable.  */
641   if (dir[0] == '\0')
642     {
643       __set_errno (ENOENT);
644       return -1;
645     }
646
647   data.maxdir = descriptors < 1 ? 1 : descriptors; /*No check upper limit.
*/ 
648   data.actdir = 0;
649   data.dirstreams = (struct dir_data **) alloca (data.maxdir
650                                                  * sizeof (struct dir_data
*));  /* Here, the stack overflows. */
651   memset (data.dirstreams, '\0', data.maxdir * sizeof (struct dir_data *));
