NAME

Opcode - Disable named opcodes when compiling perl code
 

SYNOPSIS

  use Opcode;

DESCRIPTION

Evaluating perl code (e.g. via ``eval'' or ``do 'file''') causes the code to be compiled into an internal format and then, provided there was no error in the compilation, executed. The internal format is based on many distinct opcodes.

By default no opmask is in effect and any code can be compiled.

The Opcode module allow you to define an operator mask to be in effect when perl next compiles any code. Attempting to compile code which contains a masked opcode will cause the compilation to fail with an error. The code will not be executed.

Your mileage will vary. If in any doubt do not use it.  

Operator Names and Operator Lists

Each operator has both a terse name (its opname) and a more verbose or recognisable descriptive name. The opdesc function can be used to return a list of descriptions for a list of operators.

Many of the functions and methods listed below take a list of operators as parameters. Most operator lists can be made up of several types of element. Each element can be one of

an operator name (opname)

Operator names are typically small lowercase words like enterloop, leaveloop, last, next, redo etc. Sometimes they are rather cryptic like gv2cv, i_ncmp and ftsvtx.

an operator tag name (optag)

Operator tags can be used to refer to groups (or sets) of operators. Tag names always begin with a colon. The Opcode module defines several optags and the user can define others using the define_optag function.

a negated opname or optag

An opname or optag can be prefixed with an exclamation mark, e.g., !mkdir. Negating an opname or optag means remove the corresponding ops from the accumulated set of ops at that point.

an operator set (opset)

An opset as a binary string of approximately 44 bytes which holds a set or zero or more operators.

The opset and opset_to_ops functions can be used to convert from a list of operators to an opset and vice versa.

Wherever a list of operators can be given you can use one or more opsets. See also Manipulating Opsets below.

Opcode Functions

opcodes

In a scalar context opcodes returns the number of opcodes in this version of perl (around 350 for perl-5.7.0).

In a list context it returns a list of all the operator names. (Not yet implemented, use @names = opset_to_ops(full_opset).)

opset (OP, ...)

Returns an opset containing the listed operators.

opset_to_ops (OPSET)

Returns a list of operator names corresponding to those operators in the set.

opset_to_hex (OPSET)

Returns a string representation of an opset. Can be handy for debugging.

full_opset

Returns an opset which includes all operators.

empty_opset

Returns an opset which contains no operators.

invert_opset (OPSET)

Returns an opset which is the inverse set of the one supplied.

verify_opset (OPSET, ...)

Returns true if the supplied opset looks like a valid opset (is the right length etc) otherwise it returns false. If an optional second parameter is true then verify_opset will croak on an invalid opset instead of returning false.

Most of the other Opcode functions call verify_opset automatically and will croak if given an invalid opset.

define_optag (OPTAG, OPSET)

Define OPTAG as a symbolic name for OPSET. Optag names always start with a colon ":".

The optag name used must not be defined already (define_optag will croak if it is already defined). Optag names are global to the perl process and optag definitions cannot be altered or deleted once defined.

It is strongly recommended that applications using Opcode should use a leading capital letter on their tag names since lowercase names are reserved for use by the Opcode module. If using Opcode within a module you should prefix your tags names with the name of your module to ensure uniqueness and thus avoid clashes with other modules.

opmask_add (OPSET)

Adds the supplied opset to the current opmask. Note that there is currently no mechanism for unmasking ops once they have been masked. This is intentional.

opmask

Returns an opset corresponding to the current opmask.

opdesc (OP, ...)

This takes a list of operator names and returns the corresponding list of operator descriptions.

opdump (PAT)

Dumps to STDOUT a two column list of op names and op descriptions. If an optional pattern is given then only lines which match the (case insensitive) pattern will be output.

It's designed to be used as a handy command line utility:

        perl -MOpcode=opdump -e opdump
        perl -MOpcode=opdump -e 'opdump Eval'

Manipulating Opsets

However you should never rely on the numerical position of any opcode within the opset. In other words both sides of a bit vector operator should be opsets returned from Opcode functions.

Also, since the number of opcodes in your current version of perl might not be an exact multiple of eight, there may be unused bits in the last byte of an upset. This should not cause any problems (Opcode functions ignore those extra bits) but it does mean that using the ~ operator will typically not produce the same 'physical' opset 'string' as the invert_opset function.  

TO DO (maybe)

    $bool = opset_eq($opset1, $opset2)  true if opsets are logically eqiv

    $yes = opset_can($opset, @ops)      true if $opset has all @ops set

    @diff = opset_diff($opset1, $opset2) => ('foo', '!bar', ...)

    leaveeval -- needed for Safe to operate, is safe without entereval

:base_mem

These memory related ops are not included in :base_core because they can easily be used to implement a resource attack (e.g., consume all available memory).

    concat repeat join range

    anonlist anonhash

Note that despite the existence of this optag a memory resource attack may still be possible using only :base_core ops.

Disabling these ops is a very heavy handed way to attempt to prevent a memory resource attack. It's probable that a specific memory limit mechanism will be added to perl in the near future.

:base_loop

These loop ops are not included in :base_core because they can easily be used to implement a resource attack (e.g., consume all available CPU time).

    grepstart grepwhile
    mapstart mapwhile
    enteriter iter
    enterloop leaveloop unstack
    last next redo
    goto

:base_io

These ops enable filehandle (rather than filename) based input and output. These are safe on the assumption that only pre-existing filehandles are available for use. To create new filehandles other ops such as open would need to be enabled.

    readline rcatline getc read

    formline enterwrite leavewrite

    print sysread syswrite send recv

    eof tell seek sysseek

    readdir telldir seekdir rewinddir

    gvsv gv gelem

    padsv padav padhv padany

    rv2gv refgen srefgen ref

    getppid getpgrp setpgrp getpriority setpriority localtime gmtime

    entertry leavetry -- can be used to 'hide' fatal errors

    custom -- where should this go

:base_math

These ops are not included in :base_core because of the risk of them being used to generate floating point exceptions (which would have to be caught using a $SIG{FPE} handler).

    atan2 sin cos exp log sqrt

These ops are not included in :base_core because they have an effect beyond the scope of the compartment.

    rand srand

:base_thread

These ops are related to multi-threading.

    lock threadsv

:default

A handy tag name for a reasonable default set of ops. (The current ops allowed are unstable while development continues. It will change.)

    :base_core :base_mem :base_loop :base_io :base_orig :base_thread

If safety matters to you (and why else would you be using the Opcode module?) then you should not rely on the definition of this, or indeed any other, optag!

    ggrnam ggrgid ggrent sgrent egrent                -- groups

:browse

A handy tag name for a reasonable default set of ops beyond the :default optag. Like :default (and indeed all the other optags) its current definition is unstable while development continues. It will change.

The :browse tag represents the next step beyond :default. It it a superset of the :default ops and adds :filesys_read the :sys_db. The intent being that scripts can access more (possibly sensitive) information about your system but not be able to change it.

    :default :filesys_read :sys_db

:filesys_open

    sysopen open close
    umask binmode

    open_dir closedir -- other dir ops are in :base_io

:filesys_write

    link unlink rename symlink truncate

    mkdir rmdir

    utime chmod chown

    fcntl -- not strictly filesys related, but possibly as dangerous?

:subprocess

    backtick system

    fork

    wait waitpid

    glob -- access to Cshell via <`rm *`>

:ownprocess

    exec exit kill

    time tms -- could be used for timing attacks (paranoid?)

:others

This tag holds groups of assorted specialist opcodes that don't warrant having optags defined for them.

SystemV Interprocess Communications:

    msgctl msgget msgrcv msgsnd

    semctl semget semop

    shmctl shmget shmread shmwrite

:still_to_be_decided

    chdir
    flock ioctl

    socket getpeername ssockopt
    bind connect listen accept shutdown gsockopt getsockname

    sleep alarm -- changes global timer state and signal handling
    sort -- assorted problems including core dumps
    tied -- can be used to access object implementing a tie
    pack unpack -- can be used to create/use memory pointers

    entereval -- can be used to hide code from initial compile
    require dofile

    caller -- get info about calling environment and args

    reset

    dbstate -- perl -d version of nextstate(ment) opcode

:dangerous

This tag is simply a bucket for opcodes that are unlikely to be used via a tag name but need to be tagged for completeness and documentation.

    syscall dump chroot
