Crash on format (unwrap() in ropey library)

[v4nderstruck]

Summary

Helix panics on :format. This is the trace:

As you can see, it was caused by the library ropey. I may take a look at this and create a PR :)

Reproduction Steps

1. touch a new .cpp file ( or use an existing one)
2. insert the following code (I dont remember where I got it from. It does not really make any sense)

code

int main() {
std::string::const_iterator it;
      std::string::const_iterator temp;

      int state = 0;

      it = uri_string.begin();
      size_t uri_len = uri_string.length();

      if (uri_len >= 7 && std::equal(it, it + 6, "wss://"))
      {
        m_secure = true;
        m_scheme = "wss";
        it += 6;
      }
      else if (uri_len >= 6 && std::equal(it, it + 5, "ws://"))
      {
        m_secure = false;
        m_scheme = "ws";
        it += 5;
      }
      else if (uri_len >= 8 && std::equal(it, it + 7, "http://"))
      {
        m_secure = false;
        m_scheme = "http";
        it += 7;
      }
      else if (uri_len >= 9 && std::equal(it, it + 8, "https://"))
      {
        m_secure = true;
        m_scheme = "https";
        it += 8;
      }
      else
      {
        return;
      }

      // extract host.
      // either a host string
      // an IPv4 address
      // or an IPv6 address
      if (*it == '[')
      {
        ++it;
        // IPv6 literal
        // extract IPv6 digits until ]

        // TODO: this doesn't work on g++... not sure why
        // temp = std::find(it,it2,']');

        temp = it;
        while (temp != uri_string.end())
        {
          if (*temp == ']')
          {
            break;
          }
          ++temp;
        }

        if (temp == uri_string.end())
        {
          return;
        }
        else
        {
          // validate IPv6 literal parts
          // can contain numbers, a-f and A-F
          m_host.append(it, temp);
        }
        it = temp + 1;
        if (it == uri_string.end())
        {
          state = 2;
        }
        else if (*it == '/')
        {
          state = 2;
          ++it;
        }
        else if (*it == ':')
        {
          state = 1;
          ++it;
        }
        else
        {
          // problem
          return;
        }
      }
      else
      {
        // IPv4 or hostname
        // extract until : or /
        while (state == 0)
        {
          if (it == uri_string.end())
          {
            state = 2;
            break;
          }
          else if (*it == '/')
          {
            state = 2;
          }
          else if (*it == ':')
          {
            // end hostname start port
            state = 1;
          }
          else
          {
            m_host += *it;
          }
          ++it;
        }
}

3. do a :format
4. crash!

Note that this will not crash if eg. :w and than reopen the file to :format.

Helix Version

helix 22.08.1 (66276ce)

[kirawi]

Just to note, it's unlikely that ropey was the cause. The panic is because Helix indexed a Rope out-of-bounds.

That one is #2489

@the-mikedavis I moved the report to that thread and deleted it here.
