- Summary
- Rust XCB `xcb::Connection::connect_to_fd*` functions violate I/O safety
- Details
-
The API of
xcb::Connectionhas constructors which allow an arbitraryRawFdto be used as a socket connection. On either failure of these constructors or on the drop ofConnection, it closes the associated file descriptor. Thus, a program which uses anOwnedFd(such as aUnixStream) as the file descriptor can close the file descriptor and continue to attempt using it or close an already-closed file descriptor, violating I/O safety.Starting in version 1.6.0,
xcbprovidesConnection::connect_with_fdandConnection::connect_with_fd_and_extensionsas safe alternatives and deprecates the problematic functions. - Database specific
