2016-11-24report apt-key errors via status-fd messagesDavid Kalnischkies
We report warnings from apt-key this way already since 29c590951f812d9e9c4f17706e34f2c3315fb1f6, so reporting errors seems like a good addition. Most of those errors aren't really from apt-key through, but from the code setting up and actually calling it which used to just print to stderr which might or might not intermix them with (other) progress lines in update calls. Having them as proper error messages in the system means that the errors are actually collected later on for the list instead of ending up with our relatively generic but in those cases bogus hint regarding "is gpgv installed?". The effective difference is minimal as the errors apply mostly to systems which have far worse problems than a not as nice looking error message, which makes this pretty hard to test – but at least now the hint that your system is broken can be read in proper order (= there aren't many valid cases in which the permissions of /tmp are messed up…). LP: #1522988
2016-08-26Make directory paths configurableJulian Andres Klode
This allows other vendors to use different paths, or to build your own APT in /opt for testing. Note that this uses + 1 in some places, as the paths we receive are absolute, but we need to strip of the initial /.
2016-08-03ExecGPGV: Pass current config state to apt-key via temp fileJulian Andres Klode
Create a temporary configuration file with a dump of our configuration and pass that to apt-key. LP: #1607283
2016-08-03ExecGPGV: Fork in all casesJulian Andres Klode
2016-08-03ExecGPGV: Rework file removal on exit()Julian Andres Klode
Create a local exiter object which cleans up files on exit.
2016-08-03gpgv: Unlink the correct temp file in error caseJulian Andres Klode
Previously, when data could be created and sig not, we would unlink sig, not data (and vice versa).
2016-06-14don't use FindFile for external Dir::Bin commandsDavid Kalnischkies
We usually use absolute paths to specific the location of dpkg, apt-key and the like, but there is nothing wrong with using just the command name and instead let exec(3) make the lookup in PATH. We had a wild mixture before, so opting for the more accepting option out of the two seems about right especially as it makes no difference in the default case as apt uses absolute paths.
2016-04-03use buffered writing for InRelease splittingDavid Kalnischkies
Hardly noticeable, but given that we have the option to easily enable it, lets enable it as every newline in the message is written individually by the code.
2015-08-10implement Signed-By option for sources.listDavid Kalnischkies
Limits which key(s) can be used to sign a repository. Not immensely useful from a security perspective all by itself, but if the user has additional measures in place to confine a repository (like pinning) an attacker who gets the key for such a repository is limited to its potential and can't use the key to sign its attacks for an other (maybe less limited) repository… (yes, this is as weak as it sounds, but having the capability might come in handy for implementing other stuff later).
2015-08-10fix memory leaks reported by -fsanitizeDavid Kalnischkies
Various small leaks here and there. Nothing particularily big, but still good to fix. Found by the sanitizers while running our testcases. Reported-By: gcc -fsanitize Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-09-27add and use 'apt-key verify' which prefers gpgv over gpgDavid Kalnischkies
gnupg/gnupg2 can do verify just fine of course, so we don't need to use gpgv here, but it is what we always used in the past, so there might be scripts expecting a certain output and more importantly the output of apt-cdrom contains messages from gpg and even with all the settings we activate to prevent it, it still shows (in some versions) a quiet scary: "gpg: WARNING: Using untrusted key!" message. Keeping the use of gpgv is the simplest way to prevent it. We are increasing also the "Breaks: apt" version from libapt as it requires a newer apt-key than might be installed in partial upgrades.
2014-09-27add --readonly option for apt-key advDavid Kalnischkies
Some advanced commands can be executed without the keyring being modified like --verify, so this adds an option to disable the mergeback and uses it for our gpg calling code. Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-09-27use apt-key adv (+ gnupg) instead of gpgv for verifyDavid Kalnischkies
apt-key does the keyring merge as we need it, so we just call it instead of reimplementing it to do the merging before gpgv. This means we don't use gpgv anymore (we never depended on it explicitly - bad style), but it also means that the message in apt-cdrom add is a bit less friendly as it says loudly "untrusted key", but for a one-time command its okay.
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

2013-12-22apt-pkg/contrib/gpgv.cc: use /tmp as fallback dirThomas Bechtold
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
2013-04-03apt-pkg/contrib/gpgv.cc: fix InRelease checkMichael Vogt
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
