Bugfix release that fixes an out of bounds read #118. This shouldn't have any security implications.

1.3.0

This release includes a lot of rework in the parser and includes the Cunity unit testing framework, as well as some fixes. I increased the minor version number because there were quite a lot of internal changes.

Features:

  • New type for cJSON structs: cJSON_Invalid (#108)

Fixes:

  • runtime checks for a lot of potential integer overflows
  • fix incorrect return in cJSON_PrintBuffered (cf9d57d56cac21fc59465b8d26cf29bf6d2a87b3)

    • Numbers exceeding INT_MAX or lower than INT_MIN will be explicitly assigned to valueint as INT_MAX and INT_MIN respectively (saturation on overflow).
    • fix the cJSON_SetNumberValue macro (87f77274de6b3af00fb9b9a7f3b900ef382296c2), this slightly changes the behavior, see commit message

Introduce unit tests

Started writing unit tests with the Cunity testing framework. Currently this covers the parser functions.

Also:

Simplifications

After having unit tests for the parser function in place, I started refactoring the parser functions (as well as others) and making them easier to read and maintain.

  • Use strtod from the standard library for parsing numbers (074766997246481dfc72bfa78f07898a2716473f)
  • Use goto-fail in several parser functions (#100)
  • Rewrite/restructure all of the parsing functions to be easier to understand and have less code paths doing the same as another. (#109)
  • Simplify the buffer allocation strategy to always doubling the needed amount (9f6fa94c91a87b71e4c6868dbf2ce431a48517b0)
  • Combined cJSON_AddItemToObject and cJSON_AddItemToObjectCS to one function (cf862d0fed7f9407e4b046d78d3d8050d2080d12)
