The original code wasn't careful to test the file descriptor returned by PQsocket() for an invalid socket. If an invalid socket did turn up, that would amount to calling FD_ISSET with fd = -1, whereby undefined behavior can be invoked. To fix, test file descriptor for validity and stop further processing if that fails. Problem noticed by Coverity. There is an existing FD_ISSET callsite that does check for invalid sockets beforehand, but the error message reported by it was strerror(errno); in testing the aforementioned change, that turns out to result in "bad socket: Success" which isn't terribly helpful. Instead use PQerrorMessage() in both places which is more likely to contain an useful error message. Backpatch-through: 9.1. |
