OOM on Import Vault when encrypted vault file is large #1298

Source

F-Droid

Vault encryption

Yes

Device

OnePlus6

Android version

11

ROM

OxygenOS (stock OnePlus6) v 11.1.2.2

Steps to reproduce

Enable encrypted backups (with or without biometrics)
Build the number of tokens until the backup file exceeds a certain size (for me, a size of 36.96MB of the encrypted backup seems to trigger this behavior)
Mine crashed when adding a new token (17th) and the app started to crash on startup. So I reinstalled the app and reimported the last backup
Import Vault fails with the following OOM stack trace

Following the contribution guide and a few comments on the past issues, I did the following to fix this.

Opened the APK with apktool and added android:largeHeap="true" to AndroidManifest.xml.
Repackaged the APK, signed, and sideloaded with adb
Import Vault now goes through without a crash

This solves my problem for the moment, but my issue is keeping up with the updates and general security. Is there anyway this could be addressed by the released packages? I'm guessing this happens because db entry becomes too large during decryption/encryption. Maybe (somehow) encrypt entries separately (or group up to a certain number)? That could limit the memory occupied by an encrypt/decrypt operation.

I'm unfamiliar with Android development, but can't largeHeap attribute be enabled by default somehow? Guessing that would just prolong the time it takes for this to reproduce again.

Let me know if you need me to generate more detailed logs. I didn't include the entire file because I collected system logs too.

What do you expect to happen?

Import the tokens without crashing

What happens instead?

Application crashes

This is a known issue that really only occurs if you selected high resolution JPG or PNG images as icons for your entries. Is that the case here as well? We don't currently scale down selected icons, so they retain their original resolution and thus the size of the vault file quickly increases if you have a couple of those. We probably should scale them down to something like 512x512.

Either way, I'd suggest using SVG icons instead. My vault contains ~80 entries, most of which have SVG icons, and is under 250KB in size. Take a look at the available icons packs: https://github.com/beemdevelopment/Aegis?tab=readme-ov-file#icon-packs

elliotwutingfeng · 2024-03-15T07:59:28Z

We probably should scale them down to something like 512x512

I think it is a good idea to notify the user when this happens for high resolution icons. Scaling down would also prevent users from accidentally soft-locking themselves out of the app, should they choose not to use SVG icons.

🤦 I can't believe I didn't think of that. The images are exactly the cause. I've added a couple of images that I took with my phone camera, so that should add a couple of tens of MBs.

Thanks! I'm keeping the issue open if the developers decide to address with a workaround. Please close if that's not the case.

chamilad · 2024-03-20T00:19:45Z

I could also try adding the feature to crop and scale down images. I'm not familiar with Android development, and it's a bad time in terms of work, but with some time and effort I could get a PR up. Will pick this up if no one else has started.

echuber2 · 2024-03-20T05:34:45Z

I'm not sure, but it looks like the data is loaded from the image file here:

Aegis/app/src/main/java/com/beemdevelopment/aegis/ui/AssignIconsActivity.java

Line 129 in 584b0ac

iconBytes = IOUtils.readFile(inStream);

Aegis/app/src/main/java/com/beemdevelopment/aegis/ui/EditEntryActivity.java

Line 756 in 584b0ac

iconBytes = IOUtils.readFile(inStream);

And there may also be some reason to put checks in the serialization code:

Aegis/app/src/main/java/com/beemdevelopment/aegis/vault/VaultEntryIcon.java

Line 65 in 584b0ac

    
           obj.put("icon", icon == null ? JSONObject.NULL : Base64.encode(icon.getBytes()));

Aegis/app/src/main/java/com/beemdevelopment/aegis/vault/VaultEntryIcon.java

Line 75 in 584b0ac

Object icon = obj.get("icon");
