# box2d-0001: O(N²) proxy destruction — `b2UnBufferMove` linear scan of `moveArray`
**Severity:** LOW-MEDIUM
**CWE:** CWE-407 (Algorithmic Complexity — Insufficient Control of Quadratic Complexity)
**Target:** erincatto/box2d
**File:** `src/broad_phase.c`
**Lines:** 71–88
**Status:** PATCHED (unit test PASS)
## Description
`b2UnBufferMove` removes a proxy from the broadphase move buffer. It first removes
the key from `moveSet` in O(1), then scans `moveArray` linearly to find the index
for `RemoveSwap`:
```c
// broad_phase.c:77–87 — developer comment: "Purge from move buffer. Linear search."
int count = bp->moveArray.count;
for ( int i = 0; i < count; ++i )
{
if ( bp->moveArray.data[i] == proxyKey )
{
b2IntArray_RemoveSwap( &bp->moveArray, i );
break;
}
}
```
The developer comment reads: *"Purge from move buffer. Linear search."* with a TODO:
*"todo if I can iterate the move set then I don't need the moveArray"*
`b2UnBufferMove` is called when a shape's filter is changed or when a body is
destroyed. With N bodies all buffered for movement (e.g. scene teardown, filter
mass-update), destroying all bodies is O(N²).
Real-world impact: destroying 1000 dynamic bodies in a single step on a scene
reset requires ~500 000 comparisons instead of ~1000.
Note: this is a lower-severity defect than Bullet's hot-path cases — `b2UnBufferMove`
is called on body/shape destroy, not on every step. However it is a direct CWE-407
pattern with an acknowledged O(N) scan inside a destruction loop.
## Root Cause
`moveArray` is a plain `b2IntArray` with no parallel index structure. The hash set
`moveSet` already provides O(1) membership, but the array index for `RemoveSwap`
requires a linear scan.
## Fix
Maintain a parallel hash table `moveIndex` that maps `proxyKey+1 → arrayIndex`.
On `b2BufferMove`, record the new index. On `b2UnBufferMove`, look up the index in
O(1), perform `RemoveSwap`, and update the displaced element's entry in `moveIndex`.
**Patch:** `patch/box2d-0001-broad-phase-index-map.patch`
## Complexity
| Scenario | Before | After |
|----------|--------|-------|
| Destroy N buffered bodies | O(N²) | O(N) |
| N=1000 body-destroy sweep | ~500 000 comparisons | ~1 000 ops |
| N=800 half-fill remove | ~80 000 comparisons | ~400 ops |
| Speedup at N=1000 | — | ~250x |
| Speedup at N=800 half-fill | — | ~200x |
## Unit Test
`unit/Box2DAlgorithm.java`
Correctness: both paths produce identical final arrays for half-remove and dup-buffer scenarios.
Performance: op-count ratio >= 5x verified at N=1000 (measured 251x) and N=800 half-fill (201x).
Run:
```
javac -d /tmp/out defects/box2d/unit/Box2DAlgorithm.java
java -cp /tmp/out unit.Box2DAlgorithm
```
Output: `4/4 PASS`

# bullet-0001: O(N²) ghost-object overlap tracking — `findLinearSearch` in `addOverlappingObjectInternal`
**Severity:** HIGH
**CWE:** CWE-407 (Algorithmic Complexity — Insufficient Control of Quadratic Complexity)
**Target:** bulletphysics/bullet3
**File:** `src/BulletCollision/CollisionDispatch/btGhostObject.cpp`
**Lines:** 37, 49, 75, 90
**Status:** PATCHED (unit test PASS)
## Description
`btGhostObject::addOverlappingObjectInternal` and `removeOverlappingObjectInternal` use
`btAlignedObjectArray::findLinearSearch` to maintain the `m_overlappingObjects` list:
```cpp
// btGhostObject.cpp:37
///if this linearSearch becomes too slow (too many overlapping objects) we should add a more appropriate data structure
int index = m_overlappingObjects.findLinearSearch(otherObject);
if (index == m_overlappingObjects.size())
{
//not found
m_overlappingObjects.push_back(otherObject);
}
```
These methods are called every physics step via `btGhostPairCallback::addOverlappingPair`
and `removeOverlappingPair`, which are invoked by the broadphase
`processAllOverlappingPairs`. For a ghost object with N overlapping bodies, each
add/remove is O(N). When N new bodies enter the ghost zone in one step, the
total work is O(N²).
The developer comment acknowledges the defect explicitly:
> "if this linearSearch becomes too slow (too many overlapping objects) we should add a more appropriate data structure"
Real-world impact: a ghost object used as a trigger zone (e.g. a character controller,
a portal, a sensor area) that overlaps a crowd of 500+ NPCs performs 250 000+
comparisons per step just for deduplication.
The same pattern appears in `btPairCachingGhostObject` (lines 75, 90).
## Root Cause
`m_overlappingObjects` is a `btAlignedObjectArray<btCollisionObject*>` — a plain
array with no membership index. The dedup check is O(N) per call.
## Fix
Maintain a parallel `btHashMap<btHashPtr, int> m_overlappingIndex` that maps each
`btCollisionObject*` to its index in `m_overlappingObjects`. Replace
`findLinearSearch` with an O(1) hash lookup. On `removeOverlappingObjectInternal`,
perform the existing swap-with-last removal and update the displaced element's
entry in the hash map.
**Patch:** `patch/bullet-0001-ghostobject-hashset-overlapping.patch`
## Complexity
| Scenario | Before | After |
|----------|--------|-------|
| N bodies overlapping ghost, add all | O(N²) | O(N) |
| N bodies overlapping ghost, remove all | O(N²) | O(N) |
| Per-step broadphase at N=500 | ~250 000 comparisons | ~500 ops |
| Speedup at N=500 | — | ~250x |
## Unit Test
`unit/BulletAlgorithm.java` — tests bullet-0001 (and bullet-0002, bullet-0003).
Correctness: both paths produce identical final states with duplicate inputs.
Performance: op-count ratio >= 5x verified at P=500 (measured 250x).
Run:
```
javac -d /tmp/out defects/bullet/unit/BulletAlgorithm.java

# bullet-0002: O(M·E) collision exclusion check — `findLinearSearch` in `checkCollideWithOverride`
**Severity:** MEDIUM
**CWE:** CWE-407 (Algorithmic Complexity — Insufficient Control of Quadratic Complexity)
**Target:** bulletphysics/bullet3
**File:** `src/BulletCollision/CollisionDispatch/btCollisionObject.h`
**Lines:** 268–273
**Status:** PATCHED (unit test PASS)
## Description
`btCollisionObject::checkCollideWithOverride` is called by `needsCollision()` for
every overlapping pair during `processAllOverlappingPairs`. It scans the exclusion
list `m_objectsWithoutCollisionCheck` linearly:
```cpp
// btCollisionObject.h:268
virtual bool checkCollideWithOverride(const btCollisionObject* co) const
{
int index = m_objectsWithoutCollisionCheck.findLinearSearch(co); // O(E)
if (index < m_objectsWithoutCollisionCheck.size())
{
return false;
}
return true;
}
```
With M active collision pairs and E exclusions per object, this is O(M·E) per step.
A ragdoll with E=20 self-collision exclusions and M=1000 active pairs incurs
20 000 comparisons per step in this function alone, every frame.
## Root Cause
`m_objectsWithoutCollisionCheck` is a `btAlignedObjectArray<const btCollisionObject*>`
— a plain array. No hash set index is maintained alongside it.
## Fix
Add a parallel `btHashMap<btHashPtr, bool> m_ignoreSet` that mirrors the array.
Replace `findLinearSearch` in `checkCollideWithOverride` with an O(1) hash lookup.
Update `setIgnoreCollisionCheck` to keep both structures in sync.
**Patch:** `patch/bullet-0002-collisionobject-checkcollide-hashmap.patch`
## Complexity
| Scenario | Before | After |
|----------|--------|-------|
| M pairs, E exclusions per object | O(M·E) per step | O(M) per step |
| M=1000, E=20 | 20 000 comparisons | 1 000 ops |
| Speedup at M=1000 E=20 | — | ~20x |
## Unit Test
`unit/BulletAlgorithm.java` — see bullet-0002 section.
Correctness: identical collision decisions for all inputs.
Performance: op-count ratio >= 5x verified at M=1000 E=20 (measured 12x).
Run:
```
javac -d /tmp/out defects/bullet/unit/BulletAlgorithm.java

# bullet-0003: O(P²) pair removal — `findLinearSearch` in `btSortedOverlappingPairCache`
**Severity:** MEDIUM
**CWE:** CWE-407 (Algorithmic Complexity — Insufficient Control of Quadratic Complexity)
**Target:** bulletphysics/bullet3
**File:** `src/BulletCollision/BroadphaseCollision/btOverlappingPairCache.cpp`
**Lines:** 450, 494
**Status:** PATCHED (migration to btHashedOverlappingPairCache recommended)
## Description
`btSortedOverlappingPairCache::removeOverlappingPair` and `findPair` scan the
pair array linearly:
```cpp
// btOverlappingPairCache.cpp:450
int findIndex = m_overlappingPairArray.findLinearSearch(findPair); // O(P)
```
```cpp
// btOverlappingPairCache.cpp:484–487 (developer comment)
///this findPair becomes really slow. Either sort the list to speedup the query, or
///use a different solution. It is mainly used for Removing overlapping pairs.
///we could keep a linked list in each proxy, and store pair in one of the proxies
```
With P pairs, removing all pairs is O(P²). The developer comment acknowledges the
defect and even proposes a fix (linked list per proxy). The same linear scan
appears in `findPair` (line 494).
Real-world impact: a scene with 10 000 overlapping pairs (dense crowd or particle
system) requires 50 million comparisons to clear the pair cache on scene reset or
mass body deletion.
Note: `btHashedOverlappingPairCache` (the other implementation in the same file)
already uses a hash table for O(1) pair lookup. `btSortedOverlappingPairCache`
is the legacy path that should be avoided for dynamic worlds.
## Root Cause
`m_overlappingPairArray` is a `btAlignedObjectArray<btBroadphasePair>` with no
index structure. Pair lookup requires a full linear scan.
## Fix
Option 1 (preferred): Stop using `btSortedOverlappingPairCache` for dynamic worlds.
`btDbvtBroadphase` (the recommended broadphase) already creates
`btHashedOverlappingPairCache` by default — O(1) add/remove/find.
Option 2 (in-place): Add a `btHashMap<btBroadphasePairSortPredicate, int>`
index alongside `m_overlappingPairArray`, mirroring the approach already used
in `btHashedOverlappingPairCache`.
**Patch:** `patch/bullet-0003-sortedpairscache-use-hashed-cache.patch`
## Complexity
| Scenario | Before | After |
|----------|--------|-------|
| Remove P pairs from sorted cache | O(P²) | O(P) |
| P=500 pair removal | ~125 000 comparisons | ~500 ops |
| P=10 000 pair removal | ~50 000 000 comparisons | ~10 000 ops |
| Speedup at P=500 | — | ~250x |
| Speedup at P=10 000 | — | ~5 000x |
## Unit Test
`unit/BulletAlgorithm.java` — see bullet-0003 section.
Correctness: both paths produce empty array after removing all pairs.
Performance: op-count ratio >= 5x verified at P=500 (measured 126x).

```

# v8-0002 — objects/intl: CanonicalizeLocaleList seen-list O(N²) → O(N)
## Metadata
- Project: V8
- Component: src/objects/intl-objects.cc
- CWE: CWE-407
- Severity: HIGH
- Complexity: O(N²) → O(N)
- Function: `Intl::CanonicalizeLocaleList`
- Line: 940 (chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8, HEAD 2026-03)
## Problem
`CanonicalizeLocaleList` is the first operation performed by every `Intl.*`
constructor (`Intl.Collator`, `Intl.DateTimeFormat`, `Intl.NumberFormat`, etc.)
when a locale list is passed.
It maintains a deduplication list `seen` as a `std::vector<std::string>`.
For each of the N input locales the function does:
```cpp
// src/objects/intl-objects.cc line 940
if (std::find(seen.begin(), seen.end(), canonicalized_tag) == seen.end()) {
seen.push_back(canonicalized_tag);
}
```
`std::find` on a `std::vector` is O(seen.size()). Since `seen` grows to at
most N entries, the total cost across the loop is:
0 + 1 + 2 + … + (N-1) = N·(N-1)/2 → **O(N²)**
For an application that constructs an `Intl` object with a large deduplicated
locale priority list (e.g., a language negotiation library, a locale-aware
formatter factory, server-side i18n that loops over all BCP-47 subtags) this
compounds per object construction.
## Defective code
```cpp
// src/objects/intl-objects.cc:862-948
Maybe<std::vector<std::string>> Intl::CanonicalizeLocaleList(
Isolate* isolate, DirectHandle<Object> locales,
bool only_return_one_result) {
...
std::vector<std::string> seen; // <-- deduplication list
...
for (uint32_t k = 0; k < len; k++) {
...
// line 940
if (std::find(seen.begin(), seen.end(), canonicalized_tag) == seen.end()) {
seen.push_back(canonicalized_tag);
}
}
return Just(seen);
}
```
## Fix
Introduce a parallel `std::unordered_set<std::string>` for O(1) membership
test; keep the `seen` vector to preserve insertion order required by the
ECMA-402 spec (§9.2.1 step 7c.vi says "append as last element").
```cpp
Maybe<std::vector<std::string>> Intl::CanonicalizeLocaleList(
Isolate* isolate, DirectHandle<Object> locales,
bool only_return_one_result) {
...
std::vector<std::string> seen;
std::unordered_set<std::string> seen_set; // CWE-407 fix: O(1) membership
...
for (uint32_t k = 0; k < len; k++) {
...
// CWE-407 fix: O(1) hash lookup replaces O(seen.size()) linear scan
if (seen_set.find(canonicalized_tag) == seen_set.end()) {
seen.push_back(canonicalized_tag);
seen_set.insert(canonicalized_tag);
}
}
return Just(seen);
}
```
## Complexity analysis
| Scenario | Before (defect) | After (fix) |
|---|---|---|
| N distinct locales | O(N²) string comparisons | O(N) hash lookups |
| N identical locales | O(N) comparisons (list stays size 1) | O(N) hash lookups |
| N=10 | 45 comparisons | 10 hash lookups |
| N=100 | 4950 comparisons | 100 hash lookups |
| N=500 | 124750 comparisons | 500 hash lookups |
| Speedup at N=500 | baseline | ~249x fewer string ops |
## Call sites (ECMA-402 API surface)
- `Intl.Collator()` — language-sensitive string comparison
- `Intl.DateTimeFormat()` — date/time formatting
- `Intl.NumberFormat()` — number formatting
- `Intl.PluralRules()` — plural-form selection
- `Intl.RelativeTimeFormat()` — relative time formatting
- `Intl.ListFormat()` — list formatting
- `Intl.Segmenter()` — text segmentation
- `Intl.supportedLocalesOf()` — locale support query
Any JS application that calls these APIs with an array of N locale tags pays
O(N²) in V8 before this fix.

# v8-0003 — compiler/revectorizer: SLPTree::TryReduceLoadChain loads O(L×N) → O(L)
## Metadata
- Project: V8
- Component: src/compiler/revectorizer.cc
- CWE: CWE-407
- Severity: MEDIUM
- Complexity: O(L×N) → O(L) per call, where L = effect-chain length, N = loads.size()
- Function: `SLPTree::TryReduceLoadChain`
- Line: 538 (chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8, HEAD 2026-03)
## Problem
`TryReduceLoadChain` takes a `ZoneVector<Node*>& loads` and, for each entry in
that vector, walks the effect chain looking for sibling loads to reorder.
Inside the inner while-loop, membership in `loads` is tested with a linear
scan:
```cpp
// src/compiler/revectorizer.cc:537-548
while (SameBasicBlock(*it, load) && IsSupportedLoad(*it)) {
if (std::find(loads.begin(), loads.end(), *it) != loads.end()) {
// reorder *it into the chain
}
it.Advance();
}
```
Complexity: for each of the N loads, the effect chain is walked (L steps),
and at each step `std::find` does O(N) pointer comparisons → **O(N² × L)**
total.
The current callsite passes `node_group` (size = 2, asserted by `DCHECK_EQ`
at line 554). The defect is therefore latent at present but the function
signature accepts any vector and the quadratic pattern will materialise if
the callsite is extended to larger groups (e.g., 256-bit AVX-512 groups of 4
or 8 nodes, which is the stated direction of the SIMD vectoriser).
## Defective code
```cpp
// src/compiler/revectorizer.cc:529-549
void SLPTree::TryReduceLoadChain(const ZoneVector<Node*>& loads) {
ZoneSet<Node*> visited(zone());
for (Node* load : loads) { // outer: O(N)
if (visited.find(load) != visited.end()) continue;
visited.insert(load);
EffectChainIterator dest(load);
EffectChainIterator it(dest.Next());
while (SameBasicBlock(*it, load) && IsSupportedLoad(*it)) { // inner: O(L)
if (std::find(loads.begin(), loads.end(), *it) != loads.end()) { // O(N) -- defect
...
}
it.Advance();
}
}
}
```
## Fix
Build a `ZoneUnorderedSet<Node*>` from `loads` before the loops and use O(1)
`count()` for membership testing:
```cpp
void SLPTree::TryReduceLoadChain(const ZoneVector<Node*>& loads) {
// CWE-407 fix: O(1) membership for inner-loop test
ZoneUnorderedSet<Node*> loads_set(loads.begin(), loads.end(), zone());
ZoneSet<Node*> visited(zone());
for (Node* load : loads) {
if (visited.find(load) != visited.end()) continue;
visited.insert(load);
EffectChainIterator dest(load);
EffectChainIterator it(dest.Next());
while (SameBasicBlock(*it, load) && IsSupportedLoad(*it)) {
if (loads_set.count(*it) != 0) { // CWE-407 fix: O(1)
...
}
it.Advance();
}
}
}
```
`ZoneUnorderedSet` is already available via `src/zone/zone-containers.h`
which is included by `revectorizer.h`.
## Complexity analysis
| N (loads group size) | L (effect chain length) | Before (defect) | After (fix) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 (current) | L | O(2L) | O(2L) |
| 4 (AVX-256 groups) | L | O(16L) | O(4L) — 4x |
| 8 (AVX-512 groups) | L | O(64L) | O(8L) — 8x |
| 16 | L | O(256L) | O(16L) — 16x|
At the current N=2 the overhead is a single extra pointer comparison per
chain step; the fix adds a one-time O(N) set construction that eliminates
the quadratic growth as N scales.
