2013-11-06Fix build on pre-v9 32-bit Sparc.David S. Miller

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.

2013-10-14ldd: make try_trace more robust and portablePatrick 'P. J.' McDermott
It was noted in 2005 (BZ #832), 2006 (BZ #3266), and 2007 [1] that ldd fails on shells other than Bash >= 3.0 because of the pipefail option around try_trace (added on 2004-12-08). EGLIBC was patched in 2008 [2] (r6912) to make the pipefail check run only on shells that support it, but RTLD output would still be lost on other shells with certain SELinux policies. This patch rewrites try_trace to work on any POSIX-conformant shell in such a way as to also work with such SELinux policies. It also obviates one difference between glibc and EGLIBC. URL: https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2007-01/msg00041.html URL: http://www.eglibc.org/archives/patches/msg00526.html 2013-09-11 P. J. McDermott <pj@pehjota.net> [BZ #832] * elf/ldd.bash.in (try_trace): More robustly and portably work around SELinux terminal write permissions by using a command substitution instead of a pipeline and pipefail option.

2013-10-11Fix fwrite() reading beyond end of buffer in error pathEric Biggers
Partially revert commits 2b766585f9b4ffabeef2f36200c275976b93f2c7 and de2fd463b1c0310d75084b6d774fb974075a4ad9, which were intended to fix BZ#11741 but caused another, likely worse bug, namely that fwrite() and fputs() could, in an error path, read data beyond the end of the specified buffer, and potentially even write this data to the file. Fix BZ#11741 properly by checking the return value from _IO_padn() in stdio-common/vfprintf.c.
