| Summary | 0007106: GNUNET_CRYPTO_eddsa_key_from_file always creates file if it doesn't exist (ignoring second argument) | ||||
| Description | The function tries to read the content of the given filename: 140 enum GNUNET_GenericReturnValue 141 GNUNET_CRYPTO_eddsa_key_from_file (const char *filename, 142 int do_create, 143 struct GNUNET_CRYPTO_EddsaPrivateKey *pkey) 144 { 145 enum GNUNET_GenericReturnValue ret; 146 147 if (GNUNET_OK == 148 read_from_file (filename, 149 pkey, 150 sizeof (*pkey))) 151 { 152 /* file existed, report that we didn't create it... */ 153 return (do_create) ? GNUNET_NO : GNUNET_OK; 154 } ... but if the file doesn't exist it ignores the flag do_create and always creates the file: 155 156 GNUNET_CRYPTO_eddsa_key_create (pkey); 157 ret = GNUNET_DISK_fn_write (filename, 158 pkey, 159 sizeof (*pkey), 160 GNUNET_DISK_PERM_USER_READ); | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Caught during setup of GNU Taler auditor code. The bug is triggered by _not_ having a file ~/.local/share/taler/auditor/offline-keys/auditor.priv and calling /usr/bin/taler-helper-auditor-coins. | ||||
