* make 'require ::Foo::Bar' dieDavid Mitchell2016-05-101-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Originally, 'require ::Foo::Bar' would try to load /Foo/Bar.pm. The previous commit changed it so that ::Foo::Bar mapped to Foo::Bar, and so loaded Foo/Bar.pm in the @INC path. This commit takes the different approach of, instead of mapping, making any bareword require that starts with '::' into an error instead. It introduces a new error message: $ perl -e'require ::Foo::Bar' Bareword in require must not start with a double-colon: "::Foo::Bar" $ See the thread at: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/2012/07/msg189909.html ( I originally used '"::"' rather than 'a double-colon', but that made the message a bit unpenetrable: Bareword in require must not start with "::": "::Foo::Bar" )
* Validate the 'require Bare::Word' pathname.Nicholas Clark2016-05-101-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At runtime in require, validate the generated filename after translation of '::' to '/' (and possible conversion from VMS to Unix format) to keep the code simpler. Reject empty module names, module names starting with '/' or '.' (ie absolute paths, hidden files, and '..'), and module names containing NUL bytes or '/.' (ie hidden files and '..'). Add a test for Perl_load_module(), and check that it now rejects module names which fall foul of the above rules. Most of these can't trigger for a sinple bareword require since the illegal module name will already have been rejected during parsing. However, the Perl_load_module() fakes up a rquire optree including a bareword OP_CONST, which *isn't* restricted by the lexer. Note that this doesn't apply to non-bareword pathnames: these are both unaffected: require "/foo/bar.pm"; $x = "/foo/bar.pm"; require $x; [ This is cherry-picked from a branch Nicholas wrote 4 years ago, but which was never merged. I've kept the body of the diff the same, modulo rebasing, but re-worded the commit title and message. Only one test was changed: the final one in load-module.t, since a \0 in a pathname is now trapped earlier and gives a "can't locate" error instead. For the same reason, it also required the addition of "no warnings 'syscalls';". - DAPM ]
