2016-12-08SECURITY UPDATE: gpgv: Check for errors when splitting files (CVE-2016-1252)Julian Andres Klode
This fixes a security issue where signatures of the InRelease files could be circumvented in a man-in-the-middle attack, giving attackers the ability to serve any packages they want to a system, in turn giving them root access. It turns out that getline() may not only return EINVAL as stated in the documentation - it might also return in case of an error when allocating memory. This fix not only adds a check that reading worked correctly, it also implicitly checks that all writes worked by reporting any other error that occurred inside the loop and was logged by apt. Affected: >= 0.9.8 Reported-By: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Thanks: Jann Horn, Google Project Zero for reporting the issue LP: #1647467 (cherry picked from commit 51be550c5c38a2e1ddfc2af50a9fab73ccf78026) (cherry picked from commit 4ef9e0837ce139b398299431ae2294882f531d8e) (cherry picked from commit 0bbbabb1b961b3b6541e7fdc8061fe6f282eafad)
2014-03-13cleanup headers and especially #includes everywhereDavid Kalnischkies
Beside being a bit cleaner it hopefully also resolves oddball problems I have with high levels of parallel jobs. Git-Dch: Ignore Reported-By: iwyu (include-what-you-use)
2014-01-16correct some style/performance/warnings from cppcheckDavid Kalnischkies
The most "visible" change is from utime to utimensat/futimens as the first one isn't part of POSIX anymore. Reported-By: cppcheck Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-01-16rework some code to fix some scan-build warningsDavid Kalnischkies
No visible functional changes, just code moved around and additional checks to eliminate impossible branches Reported-By: scan-build Git-Dch: Ignore

if the directory given by $TMPDIR is not available, use /tmp as fallback.
2013-06-20trigger NODATA error for invalid InRelease filesDavid Kalnischkies
With the selfgrown splitting we got the problem of not recovering from networks which just reply with invalid data like those sending us login pages to authenticate with the network (e.g. hotels) back. The good thing about the InRelease file is that we know that it must be clearsigned (a Release file might or might not have a detached sig) so if we get a file but are unable to split it something is seriously wrong, so there is not much point in trying further. The Acquire system already looks out for a NODATA error from gpgv, so this adds a new error message sent to the acquire system in case the splitting we do now ourselves failed including this magic word. Closes: #712486

2013-03-19support dash-escaped text in clearsigned files as implementations areDavid Kalnischkies
free to escape all lines (we have no lines in our files which need to be escaped as these would be invalid fieldnames) and while ExecGPGV would detect dash-escaped text as invalid (as its not expected in messages with detached signatures) it would be possible to "comment" lines in (signed) dsc files which are only parsed but not verified
2013-03-19use FileFd instead of int fds to tidy up the interface a bitDavid Kalnischkies
2013-03-18* apt-pkg/deb/debindexfile.cc,David Kalnischkies
apt-pkg/deb/deblistparser.cc: - use OpenMaybeClearSignedFile to be free from detecting and skipping clearsigning metadata in dsc and Release files We can't write a "clean" file to disk as not all acquire methods copy Release files before checking them (e.g. cdrom), so this reverts recombining, but uses the method we use for dsc files also in the two places we deal with Release files
2013-03-18 - add method to open (maybe) clearsigned files transparentlyDavid Kalnischkies
* ftparchive/writer.cc: - use OpenMaybeClearSignedFile to be free from detecting and skipping clearsigning metadata in dsc files
2013-03-16ensure that we fclose/unlink/free in the new gpg-code as soon as possibleDavid Kalnischkies
2013-03-15 - if ExecGPGV deals with a clear-signed file it will split this fileDavid Kalnischkies
into data and signatures, pass it to gpgv for verification and recombines it after that in a known-good way without unsigned blocks and whitespaces resulting usually in more or less the same file as before, but later code can be sure about the format * apt-pkg/deb/debmetaindex.cc: - reenable InRelease by default
2013-03-15don't close stdout/stderr if it is also the statusfdDavid Kalnischkies
2013-03-15* apt-pkg/contrib/gpgv.cc:David Kalnischkies
- ExecGPGV is a method which should never return, so mark it as such and fix the inconsistency of returning in error cases
2013-03-15* apt-pkg/indexcopy.cc:David Kalnischkies
- rename RunGPGV to ExecGPGV and move it to apt-pkg/contrib/gpgv.cc
