* CVE-2013-2207, BZ #15755: Disable pt_chown.Carlos O'Donell2013-07-211-0/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The helper binary pt_chown tricked into granting access to another user's pseudo-terminal. Pre-conditions for the attack: * Attacker with local user account * Kernel with FUSE support * "user_allow_other" in /etc/fuse.conf * Victim with allocated slave in /dev/pts Using the setuid installed pt_chown and a weak check on whether a file descriptor is a tty, an attacker could fake a pty check using FUSE and trick pt_chown to grant ownership of a pty descriptor that the current user does not own. It cannot access /dev/pts/ptmx however. In most modern distributions pt_chown is not needed because devpts is enabled by default. The fix for this CVE is to disable building and using pt_chown by default. We still provide a configure option to enable hte use of pt_chown but distributions do so at their own risk.
* Update Sparc ULPs.David S. Miller2013-07-201-0/+5
| | | | | * sysdeps/sparc/fpu/libm-test-ulps: Update ULPs to handle minor difference between 32-bit and 64-bit.
* BZ #15711: Avoid circular dependency for syscall.hCarlos O'Donell2013-07-161-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The generated header is compiled with `-ffreestanding' to avoid any circular dependencies against the installed implementation headers. Such a dependency would require the implementation header to be installed before the generated header could be built (See bug 15711). In current practice the generated header dependencies do not include any of the implementation headers removed by the use of `-ffreestanding'. --- 2013-07-15 Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com> [BZ #15711] * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile ($(objpfx)bits/syscall%h): Avoid system header dependency with -ffreestanding. ($(objpfx)bits/syscall%d): Likewise.

* [BZ #15022] Correct global-scope dlopen issues in static executables.Maciej W. Rozycki2013-06-281-0/+23
| | | | | | | | This change creates a link map in static executables to serve as the global search list for dlopen. It fixes a problem with the inability to access the global symbol object and a crash on an attempt to map a DSO into the global scope. Some code that has become dead after the addition of this link map is removed too and test cases are provided.

* [BZ #10283] localedef: align fixed maps to SHMLBAMike Frysinger2013-06-241-0/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | Many Linux arches require fixed mmaps to be aligned higher than pagesize, so use the SHMLBA define as it represents this quantity exactly. This fixes spurious errors seen on those arches like: cannot map archive header: Invalid argument URL: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10283 Reported-by: CHIKAMA Masaki <masaki.chikama@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
