238=item $enabled = $cbor->get_allow_cycles
239
240If C<$enable> is true (or missing), then C<decode> will happily decode
241self-referential (cyclic) data structures. By default these will not be
242decoded, as they need manual cleanup to avoid memory leaks, so code that
243isn't prepared for this will not leak memory.
244
245If C<$enable> is false (the default), then C<decode> will throw an error
246when it encounters a self-referential/cyclic data structure.
247
248FUTURE DIRECTION: the motivation behind this option is to avoid I<real>
249cycles - future versions of this module might chose to decode cyclic data
250structures using weak references when this option is off, instead of
251throwing an error.
252
253This option does not affect C<encode> in any way - shared values and
254references will always be encoded properly if present.

260Disables the use of the object serialiser protocol.
261
262If C<$enable> is true (or missing), then C<encode> will will throw an
263exception when it encounters perl objects that would be encoded using the
264perl-object tag (26). When C<decode> encounters such tags, it will fall
265back to the general filter/tagged logic as if this were an unknown tag (by
266default resulting in a C<CBOR::XC::Tagged> object).
267
268If C<$enable> is false (the default), then C<encode> will use the
269L<Types::Serialiser> object serialisation protocol to serialise objects
270into perl-object tags, and C<decode> will do the same to decode such tags.
271
272See L<SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS>, below, for more info on why forbidding this
273protocol can be useful.

296=item $cbor = $cbor->text_keys ([$enable])
297
298=item $enabled = $cbor->get_text_keys
299
300If C<$enabled> is true (or missing), then C<encode> will encode all
301perl hash keys as CBOR text strings/UTF-8 string, upgrading them as needed.
302
303If C<$enable> is false (the default), then C<encode> will encode hash keys
304normally - upgraded perl strings (strings internally encoded as UTF-8) as
305CBOR text strings, and downgraded perl strings as CBOR byte strings.
306
307This option does not affect C<decode> in any way.
308
309This option is useful for interoperability with CBOR decoders that don't
310treat byte strings as a form of text. It is especially useful as Perl
311gives very little control over hash keys.
312
313Enabling this option can be slow, as all downgraded hash keys that are
314encoded need to be scanned and converted to UTF-8.
315
316=item $cbor = $cbor->text_strings ([$enable])
317
318=item $enabled = $cbor->get_text_strings
319
320This option works similar to C<text_keys>, above, but works on all strings
321(including hash keys), so C<text_keys> has no further effect after
322enabling C<text_strings>.
323
324If C<$enabled> is true (or missing), then C<encode> will encode all perl
325strings as CBOR text strings/UTF-8 strings, upgrading them as needed.
326
327If C<$enable> is false (the default), then C<encode> will encode strings
328normally (but see C<text_keys>) - upgraded perl strings (strings
329internally encoded as UTF-8) as CBOR text strings, and downgraded perl
330strings as CBOR byte strings.
331
332This option does not affect C<decode> in any way.
333
334This option has similar advantages and disadvantages as C<text_keys>. In
335addition, this option effectively removes the ability to automatically
336encode byte strings, which might break some C<FREEZE> and C<TO_CBOR>
337methods that rely on this.
338
339A workaround is to use explicit type casts, which are unaffected by this option.
340
341=item $cbor = $cbor->validate_utf8 ([$enable])
342
343=item $enabled = $cbor->get_validate_utf8
344
345If C<$enable> is true (or missing), then C<decode> will validate that
346elements (text strings) containing UTF-8 data in fact contain valid UTF-8
347data (instead of blindly accepting it). This validation obviously takes
348extra time during decoding.
349
350The concept of "valid UTF-8" used is perl's concept, which is a superset
351of the official UTF-8.
352
353If C<$enable> is false (the default), then C<decode> will blindly accept
354UTF-8 data, marking them as valid UTF-8 in the resulting data structure
355regardless of whether that's true or not.
356
357Perl isn't too happy about corrupted UTF-8 in strings, but should
358generally not crash or do similarly evil things. Extensions might be not
359so forgiving, so it's recommended to turn on this setting if you receive
360untrusted CBOR.
361
362This option does not affect C<encode> in any way - strings that are
363supposedly valid UTF-8 will simply be dumped into the resulting CBOR
364string without checking whether that is, in fact, true or not.

391values. C<CBOR::XS> provides a number of default filter functions already,
392the the C<%CBOR::XS::FILTER> hash can be freely extended with more.
393
394C<CBOR::XS> additionally provides an alternative filter function that is
395supposed to be safe to use with untrusted data (which the default filter
396might not), called C<CBOR::XS::safe_filter>, which works the same as
397the C<default_filter> but uses the C<%CBOR::XS::SAFE_FILTER> variable
398instead. It is prepopulated with the tag decoding functions that are
399deemed safe (basically the same as C<%CBOR::XS::FILTER> without all
400the bignum tags), and can be extended by user code as wlel, although,
401obviously, one should be very careful about adding decoding functions
402here, since the expectation is that they are safe to use on untrusted
403data, after all.

467=head2 INCREMENTAL PARSING
468
469In some cases, there is the need for incremental parsing of JSON
470texts. While this module always has to keep both CBOR text and resulting
471Perl data structure in memory at one time, it does allow you to parse a
472CBOR stream incrementally, using a similar to using "decode_prefix" to see
473if a full CBOR object is available, but is much more efficient.
474
475It basically works by parsing as much of a CBOR string as possible - if
476the CBOR data is not complete yet, the pasrer will remember where it was,
477to be able to restart when more data has been accumulated. Once enough
478data is available to either decode a complete CBOR value or raise an
479error, a real decode will be attempted.
480
481A typical use case would be a network protocol that consists of sending
482and receiving CBOR-encoded messages. The solution that works with CBOR and
483about anything else is by prepending a length to every CBOR value, so the
484receiver knows how many octets to read. More compact (and slightly slower)
485would be to just send CBOR values back-to-back, as C<CBOR::XS> knows where
486a CBOR value ends, and doesn't need an explicit length.
487
488The following methods help with this:
489
490=over 4
491
492=item @decoded = $cbor->incr_parse ($buffer)
493
494This method attempts to decode exactly one CBOR value from the beginning
495of the given C<$buffer>. The value is removed from the C<$buffer> on
496success. When C<$buffer> doesn't contain a complete value yet, it returns
497nothing. Finally, when the C<$buffer> doesn't start with something
498that could ever be a valid CBOR value, it raises an exception, just as
499C<decode> would. In the latter case the decoder state is undefined and
500must be reset before being able to parse further.
501
502This method modifies the C<$buffer> in place. When no CBOR value can be
503decoded, the decoder stores the current string offset. On the next call,
504continues decoding at the place where it stopped before. For this to make
505sense, the C<$buffer> must begin with the same octets as on previous
506unsuccessful calls.
507
508You can call this method in scalar context, in which case it either
509returns a decoded value or C<undef>. This makes it impossible to
510distinguish between CBOR null values (which decode to C<undef>) and an
511unsuccessful decode, which is often acceptable.
512
513=item @decoded = $cbor->incr_parse_multiple ($buffer)
514
515Same as C<incr_parse>, but attempts to decode as many CBOR values as
516possible in one go, instead of at most one. Calls to C<incr_parse> and
517C<incr_parse_multiple> can be interleaved.
518
519=item $cbor->incr_reset
520
521Resets the incremental decoder. This throws away any saved state, so that
522subsequent calls to C<incr_parse> or C<incr_parse_multiple> start to parse
523a new CBOR value from the beginning of the C<$buffer> again.
524
525This method can be called at any time, but it I<must> be called if you want
526to change your C<$buffer> or there was a decoding error and you want to
527reuse the C<$cbor> object for future incremental parsings.

706=head2 TYPE CASTS
707
708B<EXPERIMENTAL>: As an experimental extension, C<CBOR::XS> allows you to
709force specific cbor types to be used when encoding. That allows you to
710encode types not normally accessible (e.g. half floats) as well as force
711string types even when C<text_strings> is in effect.
712
713Type forcing is done by calling a special "cast" function which keeps a
714copy of the value and returns a new value that can be handed over to any
715CBOR encoder function.
716
717The following casts are currently available (all of which are unary operators):
718
719=over
720
721=item CBOR::XS::as_text $value
722
723Forces the value to be encoded as (UTF-8) text values.
724
725=item CBOR::XS::as_bytes $value
726
727Forces the value to be encoded as a (binary) string value.
728
729=item CBOR::XS::as_float16 $value
730
731Forces half-float (IEEE 754 binary16) encoding of the given value.
732
733=item CBOR::XS::as_float32 $value
734
735Forces single-float (IEEE 754 binary32) encoding of the given value.

737=item CBOR::XS::as_float64 $value
738
739Forces double-float (IEEE 754 binary64) encoding of the given value.
740
741=item, CBOR::XS::as_cbor $cbor_text
742
743Bot a type cast per-se, this type cast forces the argument to eb encoded
744as-is. This can be used to embed pre-encoded CBOR data.
745
746Note that no checking on the validity of the C<$cbor_text> is done - it's
747the callers responsibility to correctly encode values.

825 1124
826When you are using CBOR in a protocol, talking to untrusted potentially 1125Tl;dr... if you want to decode or encode CBOR from untrusted sources, you
827hostile creatures requires relatively few measures. 1126should start with a coder object created via C<new_safe> (which implements
1127the mitigations explained below):
828 1128
1129 my $coder = CBOR::XS->new_safe;
1130
1131 my $data = $coder->decode ($cbor_text);
1132 my $cbor = $coder->encode ($data);
1133
1134Longer version: When you are using CBOR in a protocol, talking to
1135untrusted potentially hostile creatures requires some thought:
1136
1137=over 4
1138
1139=item Security of the CBOR decoder itself
1140
829First of all, your CBOR decoder should be secure, that is, should not have 1141First and foremost, your CBOR decoder should be secure, that is, should
1142not have any buffer overflows or similar bugs that could potentially be
830any buffer overflows. Obviously, this module should ensure that and I am 1143exploited. Obviously, this module should ensure that and I am trying hard
831trying hard on making that true, but you never know. 1144on making that true, but you never know.
832 1145
1146=item CBOR::XS can invoke almost arbitrary callbacks during decoding
1147
1148CBOR::XS supports object serialisation - decoding CBOR can cause calls
1149to I<any> C<THAW> method in I<any> package that exists in your process
1150(that is, CBOR::XS will not try to load modules, but any existing C<THAW>
1151method or function can be called, so they all have to be secure).
1152
1153Less obviously, it will also invoke C<TO_CBOR> and C<FREEZE> methods -
1154even if all your C<THAW> methods are secure, encoding data structures from
1155untrusted sources can invoke those and trigger bugs in those.
1156
1157So, if you are not sure about the security of all the modules you
1158have loaded (you shouldn't), you should disable this part using
1159C<forbid_objects> or using C<new_safe>.
1160
1161=item CBOR can be extended with tags that call library code
1162
1163CBOR can be extended with tags, and C<CBOR::XS> has a registry of
1164conversion functions for many existing tags that can be extended via
1165third-party modules (see the C<filter> method).
1166
1167If you don't trust these, you should configure the "safe" filter function,
1168C<CBOR::XS::safe_filter> (C<new_safe> does this), which by default only
1169includes conversion functions that are considered "safe" by the author
1170(but again, they can be extended by third party modules).
1171
1172Depending on your level of paranoia, you can use the "safe" filter:
1173
1174 $cbor->filter (\&CBOR::XS::safe_filter);
1175
1176... your own filter...
1177
1178 $cbor->filter (sub { ... do your stuffs here ... });
1179
1180... or even no filter at all, disabling all tag decoding:
1181
1182 $cbor->filter (sub { });
1183
1184This is never a problem for encoding, as the tag mechanism only exists in
1185CBOR texts.
1186
1187=item Resource-starving attacks: object memory usage
1188
833Second, you need to avoid resource-starving attacks. That means you should 1189You need to avoid resource-starving attacks. That means you should limit
834limit the size of CBOR data you accept, or make sure then when your 1190the size of CBOR data you accept, or make sure then when your resources
835resources run out, that's just fine (e.g. by using a separate process that 1191run out, that's just fine (e.g. by using a separate process that can
836can crash safely). The size of a CBOR string in octets is usually a good 1192crash safely). The size of a CBOR string in octets is usually a good
837indication of the size of the resources required to decode it into a Perl 1193indication of the size of the resources required to decode it into a Perl
838structure. While CBOR::XS can check the size of the CBOR text, it might be 1194structure. While CBOR::XS can check the size of the CBOR text (using
839too late when you already have it in memory, so you might want to check 1195C<max_size> - done by C<new_safe>), it might be too late when you already
840the size before you accept the string. 1196have it in memory, so you might want to check the size before you accept
1197the string.
841 1198
1199As for encoding, it is possible to construct data structures that are
1200relatively small but result in large CBOR texts (for example by having an
1201array full of references to the same big data structure, which will all be

1218
1219CBOR::XS will use the L<Math::BigInt>, L<Math::BigFloat> and
1220L<Math::BigRat> libraries to represent encode/decode bignums. These can be
1221very slow (as in, centuries of CPU time) and can even crash your program
1222(and are generally not very trustworthy). See the next section on bignum

857will not end up in front of untrusted eyes. 1240=head1 BIGNUM SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS
1241
1242CBOR::XS provides a C<TO_CBOR> method for both L<Math::BigInt> and
1243L<Math::BigFloat> that tries to encode the number in the simplest possible
1244way, that is, either a CBOR integer, a CBOR bigint/decimal fraction (tag
12454) or an arbitrary-exponent decimal fraction (tag 264). Rational numbers
1246(L<Math::BigRat>, tag 30) can also contain bignums as members.
1247
1248CBOR::XS will also understand base-2 bigfloat or arbitrary-exponent
1249bigfloats (tags 5 and 265), but it will never generate these on its own.
1250
1251Using the built-in L<Math::BigInt::Calc> support, encoding and decoding
1252decimal fractions is generally fast. Decoding bigints can be slow for very
1253big numbers (tens of thousands of digits, something that could potentially
1254be caught by limiting the size of CBOR texts), and decoding bigfloats or
1255arbitrary-exponent bigfloats can be I<extremely> slow (minutes, decades)
1256for large exponents (roughly 40 bit and longer).
1257
1258Additionally, L<Math::BigInt> can take advantage of other bignum
1259libraries, such as L<Math::GMP>, which cannot handle big floats with large
1260exponents, and might simply abort or crash your program, due to their code
1261quality.
1262
1263This can be a concern if you want to parse untrusted CBOR. If it is, you
1264might want to disable decoding of tag 2 (bigint) and 3 (negative bigint)
1265types. You should also disable types 5 and 265, as these can be slow even
1266without bigints.
1267
1268Disabling bigints will also partially or fully disable types that rely on
1269them, e.g. rational numbers that use bignums.

1292
1293On perls that were built without 64 bit integer support (these are rare
1294nowadays, even on 32 bit architectures, as all major Perl distributions
1295are built with 64 bit integer support), support for any kind of 64 bit
1296value in CBOR is very limited - most likely, these 64 bit values will
1297be truncated, corrupted, or otherwise not decoded correctly. This also
1298includes string, float, array and map sizes that are stored as 64 bit
1299integers.
