Grant Henke updated KUDU-2305:
------------------------------
Target Version/s: 1.8.0 (was: 1.7.0)
> Local variables can overflow when serializing a 2GB message
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KUDU-2305
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-2305
> Project: Kudu
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: rpc
> Affects Versions: 1.6.0
> Reporter: Joe McDonnell
> Assignee: Joe McDonnell
> Priority: Major
>
> When rpc_max_message_size is set to its maximum of INT_MAX (2147483647),
> certain local variables in SerializeMessage can overflow as messages approach
> this size. Specifically, recorded_size, size_with_delim, and total_size are 4
> byte signed integers and could overflow when additional_size becomes large.
> Since INT_MAX is the largest allowable value for rpc_max_message_size (a 4
> byte signed integer), these variables will not overflow if changed to 4 byte
> unsigned integers. This would eliminate the potential problem for
> serialization.
> A similar problem exists in the InboundTransfer::ReceiveBuffer() and similar
> codepaths. Changing those variables to unsigned integers should resolve the
> issue.
> This does not impact existing systems, because the default value of
> rpc_max_message_size is 50MB.
