From 4bc51beacc4ea4e53d4c3067d40f54de8813f075 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Samaresh Kumar Singh Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2025 12:08:22 -0600 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Fix integer overflow in CSV parser causing segfault Fixes #63089 When parsing scientific notation in CSV files, extremely large exponent values (e.g., '4e492493924924') caused integer overflow in the exponent accumulation loop, leading to undefined behavior and segmentation faults. The issue occurred in xstrtod() at pandas/_libs/src/parser/tokenizer.c where exponent digits were accumulated without bounds checking: int n = 0; while (isdigit_ascii(*p)) { n = n * 10 + (*p - '0'); // Overflow here with large exponents ... } Solution: - Add a maximum exponent digits cap (MAX_EXPONENT_DIGITS = 4) to prevent overflow while still allowing valid scientific notation - Continue consuming remaining digits to maintain correct parsing position - The capped value (up to 9999) is sufficient since the subsequent range check (DBL_MIN_EXP to DBL_MAX_EXP) will catch invalid exponents This fix prevents the overflow while maintaining correct parsing behavior for both valid and invalid exponent values.
