Since nginx always uses exactly one entry in the question section of
a DNS query, and never uses compression pointers in this entry, parsing
of a DNS response in ngx_resolver_process_response() does not expect
compression pointers to appear in the question section of the DNS
response. Indeed, compression pointers in the first name of a DNS response
hardly make sense, do not seem to be allowed by RFC 1035 (which says
"a pointer to a prior occurance of the same name", note "prior"), and
were never observed in practice.
Added an explicit check to ngx_resolver_process_response()'s parsing
of the question section to properly report an error if compression pointers
nevertheless appear in the question section.
Instead of checking on each label if we need to place a dot or not,
now it always adds a dot after a label, and reduces the resulting
length afterwards.
Previously, anything with any of the two high bits set were interpreted
as compression pointers. This is incorrect, as RFC 1035 clearly states
that "The 10 and 01 combinations are reserved for future use". Further,
the 01 combination is actually allocated for EDNS extended label type
(see RFC 2671 and RFC 6891), not really used though.
Fix is to reject unrecognized label types rather than misinterpreting
them as compression pointers.
It is believed to be harmless, and in the worst case it uses some
uninitialized memory as a part of the compression pointer length,
eventually leading to the "name is out of DNS response" error.
Generic function ngx_quic_order_bufs() is introduced. This function creates
and maintains a chain of buffers with holes. Holes are marked with b->sync
flag. Several buffers and holes in this chain may share the same underlying
memory buffer.
When processing STREAM frames with this function, frame data is copied only
once to the right place in the stream input chain. Previously data could
be copied twice. First when buffering an out-of-order frame data, and then
when filling stream buffer from ordered frame queue. Now there's only one
data chain for both tasks.
When variables are used in ssl_certificate or ssl_certificate_key, a request
is created in the certificate callback to evaluate the variables, and then
freed. Freeing it, however, updates c->log->action to "closing request",
resulting in confusing error messages like "client timed out ... while
closing request" when a client times out during the SSL handshake.
Fix is to restore c->log->action after calling ngx_http_free_request().
According to profiling, those two are among most frequently called,
so inlining is generally useful, and unrolling should help with it.
Further, this fixes undefined behaviour seen with invalid values.

Similarly to smtpd_hard_error_limit in Postfix and smtp_max_unknown_commands
in Exim, specifies the number of errors after which the connection is closed.
The change is mostly the same as the SMTP one (04e43d03e153 and 3f5d0af4e40a),
and ensures that nginx is able to properly handle or reject multiple IMAP
commands. The s->cmd field is not really used and set for consistency.
Non-synchronizing literals handling in invalid/unknown commands is limited,
so when a non-synchronizing literal is detected at the end of a discarded
line, the connection is closed.
Only "A-Za-z0-9-._" characters now allowed (which is stricter than what
RFC 3501 requires, but expected to be enough for all known clients),
and tags shouldn't be longer than 32 characters.
Previously, s->backslash was set if any of the arguments was a quoted
string with a backslash character. After successful command parsing
this resulted in all arguments being filtered to remove backslashes.
This is, however, incorrect, as backslashes should not be removed from
IMAP literals. For example:
S: * OK IMAP4 ready
C: a01 login {9}
S: + OK
C: user\name "pass\"word"
S: * BAD internal server error
resulted in "Auth-User: username" instead of "Auth-User: user\name"
as it should.
Fix is to apply backslash filtering on per-argument basis during parsing.
As discussed in the previous change, s->arg_start handling in the "done"
labels of ngx_mail_pop3_parse_command(), ngx_mail_imap_parse_command(),
and ngx_mail_smtp_parse_command() is wrong: s->arg_start cannot be
set there, as it is handled and cleared on all code paths where the
"done" labels are reached. The relevant code is dead and now removed.
Previously, s->arg_start was left intact after invalid IMAP commands,
and this might result in an argument incorrectly added to the following
command. Similarly, s->backslash was left intact as well, leading
to unneeded backslash removal.
For example (LFs from the client are explicitly shown as "<LF>"):
S: * OK IMAP4 ready
C: a01 login "\<LF>
S: a01 BAD invalid command
C: a0000000000\2 authenticate <LF>
S: a00000000002 aBAD invalid command
The backslash followed by LF generates invalid command with s->arg_start
and s->backslash set, the following command incorrectly treats anything
from the old s->arg_start to the space after the command as an argument,
and removes the backslash from the tag. If there is no space, s->arg_end
will be NULL.
Both things seem to be harmless though. In particular:
- This can be used to provide an incorrect argument to a command without
arguments. The only command which seems to look at the single argument
is AUTHENTICATE, and it checks the argument length before trying to
access it.
- Backslash removal uses the "end" pointer, and stops due to "src < end"
condition instead of scanning all the process memory if s->arg_end is
NULL (and arg[0].len is huge).
- There should be no backslashes in unquoted strings.
An obvious fix is to clear s->arg_start and s->backslash on invalid commands,
similarly to how it is done in POP3 parsing (added in 810:e3aa8f305d21) and
SMTP parsing.
This, however, makes it clear that s->arg_start handling in the "done"
label is wrong: s->arg_start cannot be legitimately set there, as it
is expected to be cleared in all possible cases when the "done" label is
reached. The relevant code is dead and will be removed by the following
change.
The change is mostly the same as the SMTP one (04e43d03e153 and 3f5d0af4e40a),
and ensures that nginx is able to properly handle or reject multiple POP3
commands, as required by the PIPELINING capability (RFC 2449). The s->cmd
field is not really used and set for consistency.
There is no need to scan buffer from s->buffer->pos, as we already scanned
the buffer till "p" and wasn't able to find an LF.
There is no real need for this change in SMTP, since it is at most a
microoptimization of a non-common code path. Similar code in IMAP, however,
will have to start scanning from "p" to be correct, since there can be
newlines in IMAP literals.
Previously, if an invalid SMTP command was split between reads, nginx failed
to wait for LF before returning an error, and interpreted the rest of the
command received later as a separate command.
The sw_invalid state in ngx_mail_smtp_parse_command(), introduced in
04e43d03e153, did not work, since ngx_mail_smtp_auth_state() clears
s->state when returning an error due to NGX_MAIL_PARSE_INVALID_COMMAND.
And not clearing s->state will introduce another problem: the rest
of the command would trigger duplicate error when rest of the command is
received.
Fix is to return NGX_AGAIN from ngx_mail_smtp_parse_command() until full
command is received.
Previously, if there were some pipelined SMTP data in the buffer when
a proxied connection with the backend was established, nginx called
ngx_mail_proxy_handler() to send these data, and not tried to send the
response to the last command. In most cases, this response was later sent
along with the response to the pipelined command, but if for some reason
client decides to wait for the response before finishing the next command
this might result in a connection hang.
Fix is to always call ngx_mail_proxy_handler() to send the response, and
additionally post an event to send the pipelined data if needed.
When using server push, a segfault occured because
ngx_http_v3_create_push_request() accessed ngx_http_v3_session_t object the old
way. Prior to 9ec3e71f8a61, HTTP/3 session was stored directly in c->data.
Now it's referenced by the v3_session field of ngx_http_connection_t.
With this change, it is now possible to use ngx_conf_merge_ptr_value()
to merge complex values. This change follows much earlier changes in
ngx_conf_merge_ptr_value() and ngx_conf_set_str_array_slot()
in 1452:cd586e963db0 (0.6.10) and 1701:40d004d95d88 (0.6.22), and the
change in ngx_conf_set_keyval_slot() (7728:485dba3e2a01, 1.19.4).
To preserve compatibility with existing 3rd party modules, both NULL
and NGX_CONF_UNSET_PTR are accepted for now.
Client IDs cannot be reused on different paths. This change allows to reuse
client id previosly seen on the same path (but with different dcid) in case
when no unused client IDs are available.
According to quic-transport, 9.1:
PATH_CHALLENGE, PATH_RESPONSE, NEW_CONNECTION_ID, and PADDING frames
are "probing frames", and all other frames are "non-probing frames".
Previously it was parsed in ngx_http_v3_streams.c, while the streams were
parsed in ngx_http_v3_parse.c. Now all parsing is done in one file. This
simplifies parsing API and cleans up ngx_http_v3_streams.c.
Previously, an ngx_http_v3_connection_t object was created for HTTP/3 and
then assinged to c->data instead of the generic ngx_http_connection_t object.
Now a direct reference is added to ngx_http_connection_t, which is less
confusing and does not require a flag for http3.
It's used instead of accessing c->quic->parent->data directly. Apart from being
simpler, it allows to change the way session is stored in the future by changing
the macro.
Now ngx_http_v3_ack_header() and ngx_http_v3_inc_insert_count() always generate
decoder error. Our implementation does not use dynamic tables and does not
expect client to send Section Acknowledgement or Insert Count Increment.
Stream Cancellation, on the other hand, is allowed to be sent anyway. This is
why ngx_http_v3_cancel_stream() does not return an error.
The patch adds proper transitions between multiple networking addresses that
can be used by a single quic connection. New networking paths are validated
using PATH_CHALLENGE/PATH_RESPONSE frames.
Due to structure's alignment, some uninitialized memory contents may have
been passed between processes.
Zeroing was removed in 0215ec9aaa8a.

7.2.1:
If a DATA frame is received on a control stream, the recipient MUST
respond with a connection error of type H3_FRAME_UNEXPECTED;
7.2.2:
If a HEADERS frame is received on a control stream, the recipient MUST
respond with a connection error (Section 8) of type H3_FRAME_UNEXPECTED.
With SMTP pipelining, ngx_mail_read_command() can be called with s->buffer
without any space available, to parse additional commands received to the
buffer on previous calls. Previously, this resulted in recv() being called
with zero length, resulting in zero being returned, which was interpreted
as a connection close by the client, so nginx silently closed connection.
Fix is to avoid calling c->recv() if there is no free space in the buffer,
but continue parsing of the already received commands.
Currently both names are used which is confusing. Historically these were
different objects, but now it's the same one. The name qs (quic stream) makes
more sense than sn (stream node).
