[Bug 1222912] Re: Error parsing proxy.pac
Michael, thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Your patch was highly appreciated and is now applied on IcedTea upstream. Would you be willing to test icedtea-web head? Can you build it yourself? Or would you rather grab a pre-build deb file, either directly or from a ppa? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1222912 Title: Error parsing proxy.pac To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/icedtea/+bug/1222912/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Looks like that was actually only about 95% of the way to the bug. Here's the real issue, one call further in, in the get_proxy_info function: gpointer instance=getFirstInTableInstance(instance_to_id_map); browser_functions.getvalueforurl((NPP) instance, NPNURLVProxy, siteAddr, proxy, len); looking at the docs for that function (NPN_GetValueForURL), the signature is: NPError NPN_GetValueForURL(NPP instance, NPNURLVariable variable, const char *url, char **value, uint32_t *len); and an important point called out for the value parameter: *Note: the value may have internal NULL bytes and may not be NULL- terminated.* importantly, neither the return value nor len are actually checked before moving on and attempting to use the value.

[Bug 1222912] Re: Error parsing proxy.pac
A real oddity to me is that if I put the plugin into debug mode before
running firefox it all works:
$ export ICEDTEAPLUGIN_DEBUG=true
$ firefox --new-instance 2>&1 | tee /tmp/ffdebug.log
(will attach log momentarily)
after downloading the source package and poking around, I found this
code:
gchar* proxy;
uint32_t len;
gchar* decoded_url = (gchar*) calloc(strlen(parts[4]) + 1,
sizeof(gchar));
IcedTeaPluginUtilities::decodeURL(parts[4], &decoded_url);
PLUGIN_DEBUG("parts[0]=%s, parts[1]=%s, reference, parts[3]=%s,
parts[4]=%s -- decoded_url=%s\n", parts[0], parts[1], parts[3], parts[4],
decoded_url);
gchar* proxy_info;
#if MOZILLA_VERSION_COLLAPSED < 1090100
proxy = (char*) malloc(sizeof(char)*2048);
#endif
proxy_info = g_strconcat ("plugin PluginProxyInfo reference ",
parts[3], " ", NULL);
if (get_proxy_info(decoded_url, &proxy, &len) == NPERR_NO_ERROR)
{
proxy_info = g_strconcat (proxy_info, proxy, NULL);
}
PLUGIN_DEBUG("Proxy info: %s\n", proxy_info);
plugin_send_message_to_appletviewer(proxy_info);
g_free(decoded_url);
decoded_url = NULL;
g_free(proxy_info);
proxy_info = NULL;
#if MOZILLA_VERSION_COLLAPSED < 1090100
g_free(proxy);
proxy = NULL;
#endif
note that proxy is only allocated if MOZILLA_VERSION_COLLAPSED < 1090100
(is not even initialized otherwise), but is used if get_proxy_info
succeeds, so on the first invocation we get (potentially) garbage output
like so:
plugin PluginProxyInfo reference 0 �Þ
for whatever reason, having debugging enabled causes this not to happen
(perhaps a side-effect of the fprintf call inside the PLUGIN_DEBUG
macro? I'm not really sure)
Anyway, I am building a possible patch for this right now and will
submit once I have verified that it works as I expect it to.

[Bug 1222912] Re: Error parsing proxy.pac
I'm having a very similar issue here. If I tell Firefox to use a proxy file (i.e. set network.proxy.autoconfig_url = file:///etc/proxy.pac and network.proxy.type = 2), and that pacfile exists, everything works fine, even if returning two proxies. If I then rename or remove that proxy.pac, firefox goes along on its way merrily, but the IcedTea plugin fails. Running firefox from the cli yields the following output: java version "1.7.0_79" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.5.6) (7u79-2.5.6-0ubuntu1.12.04.1) OpenJDK Client VM (build 24.79-b02, mixed mode, sharing) Unable to use Firefox's proxy settings.
