It is entirely possible for the path to be an empty string and many unit tests actually pass it as an empty string (e.g. both_roundrip or turnsEmptyPathIntoCWD). In this case, without this patch, absPath will perform a one-byte out-of-bounds access. This was discovered while enabling the nix test suite on Alpine where we compile all software with `-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS=1`, thus resulting in a test failure on Alpine. |
