Bug ID: 28038
Summary: getdelim()/getline() does not add NUL terminator if
first character is EOF.
Product: glibc
Version: 2.28
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: stdio
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org

Testcase (run with: printf '' | valgrind ./testcase)
According to IEEE Std 1003.1-2017 (
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/getdelim.html ):
> The characters read, including any delimiter, shall be stored in the object,
> and a terminating NUL added when the delimiter or end-of-file is encountered.
However, if the first character is an end-of-file, the first character of the
line should be a NUL -- instead, it's uninitialized.
Looking at the source, it appears this is still a problem:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob;f=libio/iogetdelim.c;hb=HEAD
I have attached a testcase. If you compile the testcase (gcc -Wall -Werror
-pedantic testcase.c -o testcase), then do `printf '' | valgrind
--track-origins=yes ./testcase`, you get the following:

Untested patch that *should* fix the problem.
Here's a patch that *should* fix the problem, but I haven't tested (since I
don't know how).
