From: Alexander Sverdlin <[email protected]>
The bootparam parsing loop uses "eval" to set shell variables from
kernel command line parameters. Since eval interprets its argument as
shell code, a crafted boot parameter such as:
rootdelay=1";command;"
would be executed as arbitrary shell code during early init.
Replace the eval-based parser with a single sed invocation that
tokenizes /proc/cmdline (respecting double-quoted values) and feeds the
result to a while-read loop that uses only "export" for variable
assignment, which never interprets the value as code.
The sed script works as follows:
- Split the line at unquoted spaces into one token per line. The regex
treats sequences of non-space/non-quote chars, balanced "..." pairs,
and lone " (for mid-value quotes) as atomic units that are never split.
- Strip outer quotes from whole-param-quoted tokens ("param=val").
- Strip balanced quotes around parameter values (key="val" -> key=val).
- Replace . and - with _ in parameter names (the key part before =),
iterating until none remain.
- Print each processed token and loop (P/D).
Additional benefits:
- Whitespace inside quoted values is now preserved exactly as specified
(the for-loop word-splitting collapsed multiple spaces)
- Reduced from 3+ sed/cut invocations per parameter to a single sed
process for the entire command line
