Description

Added -fsanitize=address to compiler and linker flags for six CI test configurations to enable memory error detection during testing.

ci-mac.yml:

  • video-openh264-1: Added ASan to CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS
  • video-openh264-2: Added ASan to CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS
  • video-openh264-3: Added ASan to CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS

ci-linux.yml:

  • default-full-bundle-1: Added ASan to CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS
  • default-full-bundle-2: Added ASan to CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS
  • default-full-bundle-3: Added ASan to CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS

Motivation and Context

Address Sanitizer detects memory errors (use-after-free, buffer overflows, memory leaks) at runtime. Enabling it in these test configurations provides early detection of memory safety issues during CI runs.

How Has This Been Tested?

  • YAML syntax validated for workflow file changes
  • Configuration changes are correct and will be tested by the CI workflows on the next run

Fixed memory leaks in the load_cert_direct() function in ssl_sock.c test:
1. Added proper cleanup of X509 and EVP_PKEY objects on error paths
2. For OpenSSL 3.0+, free the X509 and EVP_PKEY references after
   calling pj_ssl_cert_load_direct() since pj_ssl_sock_set_certificate()
   will call X509_up_ref() and EVP_PKEY_up_ref() to increase ref counts

This fixes the leaks reported by Address Sanitizer:
- Direct leak of 7608 bytes from SSL_new
- Indirect leak of 2 bytes from ASN1_STRING_set (X509 certificate)

...

Fixed in commit f56b4e1. The issue was in the test code's load_cert_direct() function. When using OpenSSL 3.0+, the test wasn't freeing its references to X509 and EVP_PKEY objects after passing them to pj_ssl_cert_load_direct(). Since pj_ssl_sock_set_certificate() calls X509_up_ref() and EVP_PKEY_up_ref() for OpenSSL 3.0+, the test code needs to free its original references to avoid leaks. Also added proper cleanup on error paths.

There were a couple of issues encountered:

  1. Leak in pjlib-test
Indirect leak of 2 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
    #0 0x7f49bccfd9c7 in malloc ../../../../src/libsanitizer/asan/asan_malloc_linux.cpp:69
    #1 0x7f49bc6d542b in ASN1_STRING_set (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.3+0xd542b) (BuildId: 0698e1ff610cb3c6993dccbd82c1281b1b4c5ade)

    #12 0x55756b95e2d6 in load_cert_direct ../src/pjlib-test/ssl_sock.c:642

This seems to be intentional:

  • The leak is indirect, caused by OpenSSL
  • OpenSSL keeps small ASN.1 objects in global caches that are not released at exit.

So, a suppression file in tests/sanitizers/lsan.supp is created for this.

  1. Failed pjsip-test on Mac
    AddressSanitizer: CHECK failed: sanitizer_posix_libcdep.cpp:209 "((0)) == ((sigaltstack(&altstack, &oldstack)))" (0x0, 0xffffffffffffffff) (tid=80453) <empty stack>

This is because ASan failed to install its alternate signal stack, most likely because app hasApplication already installed one.

There's also an issue with the usage of longjmp in sip_parser to handle error:

AddressSanitizer: CHECK failed: asan_poisoning.cpp:40 "((AddrIsInMem(addr + size - (1ULL << 3)))) != (0)" (0x0, 0x0) (tid=122826882)

    #5 0x000105977090 in __asan_handle_no_return+0x2c (libclang_rt.asan_osx_dynamic.dylib:arm64e+0x47090)
    #6 0x00010460babc in on_syntax_error sip_parser.c:230
    #7 0x000104811260 in pj_scan_syntax_err+0x54 (pjsip-test-aarch64-apple-darwin24.5.0:arm64+0x100275260)
  • The issue occurs when a function is:
    • marked attribute((noreturn)), or
    • calls longjmp, abort, exit, etc.
static void on_syntax_error(...)
{
    ...
    PJ_THROW(PJ_EINVAL);   // longjmp-style escape
}
  • ASan tries to unpoison stack memory
  • On macOS (especially arm64), ASan sometimes cannot prove the stack range is valid
  • ASan aborts itself → this is an internal invariant failure

So currently we disable pjsip-test MSG_TEST.
