2013-11-28Get canonical name in getaddrinfo from hosts file for AF_INET (fixes 16077)Siddhesh Poyarekar
AF_INET lookup in hosts file uses _nss_files_gethostbyname2_r, which is not capable of returning a canonical name if it has found one. This change adds _nss_files_gethostbyname3_r, which wraps around _nss_files_gethostbyname2_r and then returns result.h_name as the canonical name.

2013-11-25Fix typo in sys/ptrace.h.Carlos O'Donell
The event code is PTRACE_EVENT_SECCOMP, not PTRAVE_EVENT_SECCOMP. This patch fixes the V->C typo. There are no ABI issues since the number remains the same for the code. Code using the old wrong name will need to be updated.
2013-11-21Use __glibc_block in public headers.Meador Inge
As detailed in PR11157, the use of '__block' is known to interfere with keywords in some environments, such as the Clang -fblocks extension. Recently a similar issue was raised concerning the use of '__unused' and a '__glibc' prefix was proposed to create a glibc implementation namespace for these sorts of issues [1]. This patches takes that approach. [1] https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-02/msg00047.html [2] http://lists.debian.org/debian-glibc/2013/11/msg00020.html

2013-11-18Fix breaking of RPATH when $ORIGIN contains colons. Fixes bug 10253Ondřej Bílka
We first expanded origin and then split string by colons. This misbehaves when $ORIGIN contain colon so we first split string, then expand $ORIGIN.

2013-10-30Fix reads for sizes larger than INT_MAX in AF_INET lookupSiddhesh Poyarekar
Currently for AF_INET lookups from the hosts file, buffer sizes larger than INT_MAX silently overflow and may result in access beyond bounds of a buffer. This happens when the number of results in an AF_INET lookup in /etc/hosts are very large. There are two aspects to the problem. One problem is that the size computed from the buffer size is stored into an int, which results in overflow for large sizes. Additionally, even if this size was expanded, the function used to read content into the buffer (fgets) accepts only int sizes. As a result, the fix is to have a function wrap around fgets that calls it multiple times with int sizes if necessary.

Resolves #16072 (CVE-2013-4458). This patch fixes another stack overflow in getaddrinfo when it is called with AF_INET6. The AF_UNSPEC case was fixed as CVE-2013-1914, but the AF_INET6 case went undetected back then.
