AddressSanitizer: null pointer dereference (SEGV) in Sass::Functions::selector_append (libsass/src/functions.cpp:2088:13)

[glen-mac]

Hey there, I have discovered a null pointer dereference in libsass at: functions.cpp:2088:13

Found when fuzzing commit 60f8391 of libsass, using commit aa6d5c6 of sassc as a harness.

Compile flags to reproduce:

CC=clang CXX=clang++ CFLAGS='-fsanitize=address -g -O2 -fno-omit-frame-pointer' CXXFLAGS=$CFLAGS make -C sassc -j8

System information:

$ uname -a
Linux s127422 3.13.0-137-generic #186-Ubuntu SMP Mon Dec 4 19:09:19 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

This bug was found to be in libsass releases from 3.3.6 until the commit listed above.

You can find a collection of PoC files that trigger the bug here.

Thanks for the report.
We confirmed this issue shares a common root cause to other reported issues.
We have assigned the selector-validation to the affected issues.

[VictorRodriguez]

@xzyfer thanks a lot for the great support, do you have the patch of the common root cause issue?

[glebm]

There are two separate issues here:

First, the & parent selector shouldn't be allowed in selector-append. Example:

div {
  a: selector-append('.menu', 'li', '&');
}

I've sent a fix for this in #2760.

---

Second is this issue:

div {
  a: selector-append('.x~~', 'li', 'a')
}

dart-sass output:

Error: Parent ".x ~ ~" is incompatible with this selector.
  a: selector-append('.x~~', 'li', 'a')
     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  ../../../tmp/test2.scss 2:6  root stylesheet

ruby-sass output:

Error: Invalid parent selector for "&li": ".x ~ ~"
        on line 2 of /home/glebm/tmp/test2.scss
  Use --trace for backtrace.

I've sent #2762 for this one but not sure if it's the best solution.
