Better String library Porting Guide
-----------------------------------
by Paul Hsieh
The bstring library is an attempt to provide improved string processing
functionality to the C and C++ language. At the heart of the bstring library
is the management of "bstring"s which are a significant improvement over '\0'
terminated char buffers. See the accompanying documenation file bstrlib.txt
for more information.
===============================================================================
Identifying the Compiler
------------------------
Bstrlib has been tested on the following compilers:
Microsoft Visual C++
Watcom C/C++ (32 bit flat)
Intel's C/C++ compiler (on Windows)
The GNU C/C++ compiler (on Windows/Linux on x86 and PPC64)
Borland C++
Turbo C
There are slight differences in these compilers which requires slight
differences in the implementation of Bstrlib. These are accomodated in the
same sources using #ifdef/#if defined() on compiler specific macros. To
port Bstrlib to a new compiler not listed above, it is recommended that the
same strategy be followed. If you are unaware of the compiler specific
identifying preprocessor macro for your compiler you might find it here:
http://predef.sourceforge.net/precomp.html
Note that Intel C/C++ on Windows sets the Microsoft identifier: _MSC_VER.
16-bit vs. 32-bit vs. 64-bit Systems
------------------------------------
Bstrlib has been architected to deal with strings of length between 0 and
INT_MAX (inclusive). Since the values of int are never higher than size_t
there will be no issue here. Note that on most 64-bit systems int is 32-bit.
Dependency on The C-Library
---------------------------
Bstrlib uses the functions memcpy, memmove, malloc, realloc, free and
vsnprintf. Many free standing C compiler implementations that have a mode in
which the C library is not available will typically not include these
functions which will make porting Bstrlib to it onerous. Bstrlib is not
designed for such bare bones compiler environments. This usually includes
compilers that target ROM environments.
Porting Issues
--------------
Bstrlib has been written completely in ANSI/ISO C and ISO C++, however, there
are still a few porting issues. These are described below.
1. The vsnprintf () function.
Unfortunately, the earlier ANSI/ISO C standards did not include this function.
If the compiler of interest does not support this function then the
BSTRLIB_NOVSNP should be defined via something like:
#if !defined (BSTRLIB_VSNP_OK) && !defined (BSTRLIB_NOVSNP)
# if defined (__TURBOC__) || defined (__COMPILERVENDORSPECIFICMACRO__)
# define BSTRLIB_NOVSNP
# endif
#endif
which appears at the top of bstrlib.h. Note that the bformat(a) functions
will not be declared or implemented if the BSTRLIB_NOVSNP macro is set. If
the compiler has renamed vsnprintf() to some other named function, then
search for the definition of the exvsnprintf macro in bstrlib.c file and be
sure its defined appropriately:
#if defined (__COMPILERVENDORSPECIFICMACRO__)
# define exvsnprintf(r,b,n,f,a) {r=__compiler_specific_vsnprintf(b,n,f,a);}
#else
# define exvsnprintf(r,b,n,f,a) {r=vsnprintf(b,n,f,a);}
#endif
Take notice of the return value being captured in the variable r. It is
assumed that r exceeds n if and only if the underlying vsnprintf function has
determined what the true maximal output length would be for output if the
buffer were large enough to hold it. Non-modern implementations must output a
lesser number (the macro can and should be modified to ensure this).
2. Weak C++ compiler.
C++ is a much more complicated language to implement than C. This has lead
to varying quality of compiler implementations. The weaknesses isolated in
the initial ports are inclusion of the Standard Template Library,
std::iostream and exception handling. By default it is assumed that the C++
compiler supports all of these things correctly. If your compiler does not
support one or more of these define the corresponding macro:
BSTRLIB_CANNOT_USE_STL
BSTRLIB_CANNOT_USE_IOSTREAM
BSTRLIB_DOESNT_THROW_EXCEPTIONS
The compiler specific detected macro should be defined at the top of
bstrwrap.h in the Configuration defines section. Note that these disabling
macros can be overrided with the associated enabling macro if a subsequent
version of the compiler gains support. (For example, its possible to rig
up STLport to provide STL support for WATCOM C/C++, so -DBSTRLIB_CAN_USE_STL
can be passed in as a compiler option.)
3. The bsafe module, and reserved words.
The bsafe module is in gross violation of the ANSI/ISO C standard in the
sense that it redefines what could be implemented as reserved words on a
given compiler. The typical problem is that a compiler may inline some of the
functions and thus not be properly overridden by the definitions in the bsafe
module. It is also possible that a compiler may prohibit the redefinitions in
the bsafe module. Compiler specific action will be required to deal with
these situations.
Platform Specific Files
-----------------------
The makefiles for the examples are basically setup of for particular
environments for each platform. In general these makefiles are not portable
and should be constructed as necessary from scratch for each platform.
Testing a port
--------------
To test that a port compiles correctly do the following:
1. Build a sample project that includes the bstrlib, bstraux, bstrwrap, and
bsafe modules.
2. Compile bstest against the bstrlib module.
3. Run bstest and ensure that 0 errors are reported.
4. Compile test against the bstrlib and bstrwrap modules.
5. Run test and ensure that 0 errors are reported.
6. Compile each of the examples (except for the "re" example, which may be
complicated and is not a real test of bstrlib and except for the mfcbench
example which is Windows specific.)
7. Run each of the examples.
The builds must have 0 errors, and should have the absolute minimum number of
warnings (in most cases can be reduced to 0.) The result of execution should
be essentially identical on each platform.
Performance
-----------
Different CPU and compilers have different capabilities in terms of
performance. It is possible for Bstrlib to assume performance
characteristics that a platform doesn't have (since it was primarily
developed on just one platform). The goal of Bstrlib is to provide very good
performance on all platforms regardless of this but without resorting to
extreme measures (such as using assembly language, or non-portable intrinsics
or library extensions.)
There are two performance benchmarks that can be found in the example/
directory. They are: cbench.c and cppbench.cpp. These are variations and
expansions of a benchmark for another string library. They don't cover all
string functionality, but do include the most basic functions which will be
common in most string manipulation kernels.

Better String library Security Statement
----------------------------------------
by Paul Hsieh
===============================================================================
Introduction
------------
The Better String library (hereafter referred to as Bstrlib) is an attempt to
provide improved string processing functionality to the C and C++ languages.
At the heart of the Bstrlib is the management of "bstring"s which are a
significant improvement over '\0' terminated char buffers. See the
accompanying documenation file bstrlib.txt for more information.

ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.
Like any software, there is always a possibility of failure due to a flawed
implementation. Nevertheless a good faith effort has been made to minimize
such flaws in Bstrlib. Also, use of Bstrlib by itself will not make an
application secure or free from implementation failures. However, it is the
author's conviction that use of Bstrlib can greatly facilitate the creation
of software meeting the highest possible standards of security.
Part of the reason why this document has been created, is for the purpose of
security auditing, or the creation of further "Statements on Security" for
software that is created that uses Bstrlib. An auditor may check the claims
below against Bstrlib, and use this as a basis for analysis of software which
uses Bstrlib.
===============================================================================
Statement on Security
---------------------
This is a document intended to give consumers of the Better String Library
who are interested in security an idea of where the Better String Library
stands on various security issues. Any deviation observed in the actual
library itself from the descriptions below should be considered an
implementation error, not a design flaw.
This statement is not an analytical proof of correctness or an outline of one
but rather an assertion similar to a scientific claim or hypothesis. By use,
testing and open independent examination (otherwise known as scientific
falsifiability), the credibility of the claims made below can rise to the
level of an established theory.
Common security issues:
.......................
1. Buffer Overflows
The Bstrlib API allows the programmer a way to deal with strings without
having to deal with the buffers containing them. Ordinary usage of the
Bstrlib API itself makes buffer overflows impossible.
Furthermore, the Bstrlib API has a superset of basic string functionality as
compared to the C library's char * functions, C++'s std::string class and
Microsoft's MFC based CString class. It also has abstracted mechanisms for
dealing with IO. This is important as it gives developers a way of migrating
all their code from a functionality point of view.
2. Memory size overflow/wrap around attack
Bstrlib is, by design, impervious to memory size overflow attacks. The
reason is it is resiliant to length overflows is that bstring lengths are
bounded above by INT_MAX, instead of ~(size_t)0. So length addition
overflows cause a wrap around of the integer value making them negative
causing balloc() to fail before an erroneous operation can occurr. Attempted
conversions of char * strings which may have lengths greater than INT_MAX are
detected and the conversion is aborted.
It is unknown if this property holds on machines that don't represent
integers as 2s complement. It is recommended that Bstrlib be carefully
auditted by anyone using a system which is not 2s complement based.
3. Constant string protection
Bstrlib implements runtime enforced constant and read-only string semantics.
I.e., bstrings which are declared as constant via the bsStatic() macro cannot
be modified or deallocated directly through the Bstrlib API, and this cannot
be subverted by casting or other type coercion. This is independent of the
use of the const_bstring data type.
The Bstrlib C API uses the type const_bstring to specify bstring parameters
whose contents do not change. Although the C language cannot enforce this,
this is nevertheless guaranteed by the implementation of the Bstrlib library
of C functions. The C++ API enforces the const attribute on CBString types
correctly.
4. Aliased bstring support
Bstrlib detects and supports aliased parameter management throughout the API.
The kind of aliasing that is allowed is the one where pointers of the same
basic type may be pointing to overlapping objects (this is the assumption the
ANSI C99 specification makes.) Each function behaves as if all read-only
parameters were copied to temporaries which are used in their stead before
the function is enacted (it rarely actually does this). No function in the
Bstrlib uses the "restrict" parameter attribute from the ANSI C99
specification.
5. Information leaking
In bstraux.h, using the semantically equivalent macros bSecureDestroy() and
bSecureWriteProtect() in place of bdestroy() and bwriteprotect() respectively
will ensure that stale data does not linger in the heap's free space after
strings have been released back to memory. Created bstrings or CBStrings
are not linked to anything external to themselves, and thus cannot expose
deterministic data leaking. If a bstring is resized, the preimage may exist
as a copy that is released to the heap. Thus for sensitive data, the bstring
should be sufficiently presized before manipulated so that it is not resized.
bSecureInput() has been supplied in bstraux.c, which can be used to obtain
input securely without any risk of leaving any part of the input image in the
heap except for the allocated bstring that is returned.
6. Memory leaking
Bstrlib can be built using memdbg.h enabled via the BSTRLIB_MEMORY_DEBUG
macro. User generated definitions for malloc, realloc and free can then be
supplied which can implement special strategies for memory corruption
detection or memory leaking. Otherwise, bstrlib does not do anything out of
the ordinary to attempt to deal with the standard problem of memory leaking
(i.e., losing references to allocated memory) when programming in the C and
C++ languages. However, it does not compound the problem any more than exists
either, as it doesn't have any intrinsic inescapable leaks in it. Bstrlib
does not preclude the use of automatic garbage collection mechanisms such as
the Boehm garbage collector.
7. Encryption
Bstrlib does not present any built-in encryption mechanism. However, it
supports full binary contents in its data buffers, so any standard block
based encryption mechanism can make direct use of bstrings/CBStrings for
buffer management.
8. Double freeing
Freeing a pointer that is already free is an extremely rare, but nevertheless
a potentially ruthlessly corrupting operation (its possible to cause Win 98 to
reboot, by calling free mulitiple times on already freed data using the WATCOM
CRT.) Bstrlib invalidates the bstring header data before freeing, so that in
many cases a double free will be detected and an error will be reported
(though this behaviour is not guaranteed and should not be relied on).
Using bstrFree pervasively (instead of bdestroy) can lead to somewhat
improved invalid free avoidance (it is completely safe whenever bstring
instances are only stored in unique variables). For example:
struct tagbstring hw = bsStatic ("Hello, world");
bstring cpHw = bstrcpy (&hw);
#ifdef NOT_QUITE_AS_SAFE
bdestroy (cpHw); /* Never fail */
bdestroy (cpHw); /* Error sometimes detected at runtime */
bdestroy (&hw); /* Error detected at run time */
#else
bstrFree (cpHw); /* Never fail */
bstrFree (cpHw); /* Will do nothing */
bstrFree (&hw); /* Will lead to a compile time error */
#endif
9. Resource based denial of service
bSecureInput() has been supplied in bstraux.c. It has an optional upper limit
for input length. But unlike fgets(), it is also easily determined if the
buffer has been truncated early. In this way, a program can set an upper limit
on input sizes while still allowing for implementing context specific
truncation semantics (i.e., does the program consume but dump the extra
input, or does it consume it in later inputs?)
10. Mixing char *'s and bstrings
The bstring and char * representations are not identical. So there is a risk
when converting back and forth that data may lost. Essentially bstrings can
contain '\0' as a valid non-terminating character, while char * strings
cannot and in fact must use the character as a terminator. The risk of data
loss is very low, since:
A) the simple method of only using bstrings in a char * semantically
compatible way is both easy to achieve and pervasively supported.
B) obtaining '\0' content in a string is either deliberate or indicative
of another, likely more serious problem in the code.
C) the library comes with various functions which deal with this issue
(namely: bfromcstr(), bstr2cstr (), and bSetCstrChar ())
Marginal security issues:
.........................
11. 8-bit versus 9-bit portability
Bstrlib uses CHAR_BIT and other limits.h constants to the maximum extent
possible to avoid portability problems. However, Bstrlib has not been tested
on any system that does not represent char as 8-bits. So whether or not it
works on 9-bit systems is an open question. It is recommended that Bstrlib be
carefully auditted by anyone using a system in which CHAR_BIT is not 8.
12. EBCDIC/ASCII/UTF-8 data representation attacks.
Bstrlib uses ctype.h functions to ensure that it remains portable to non-
ASCII systems. It also checks range to make sure it is well defined even for
data that ANSI does not define for the ctype functions.
Obscure issues:
...............
13. Data attributes
There is no support for a Perl-like "taint" attribute, however, an example of
how to do this using C++'s type system is given as an example.
