2015-04-19if we can, use gccs __builtin_swap methodsDavid Kalnischkies
Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-04-10reimplement the last uses of sprintfDavid Kalnischkies
Working with strings c-style is complicated and error-prune, so by converting to c++ style we gain some simplicity and avoid buffer overflows by later extensions. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-03-16fix some new compiler warnings reported by gcc-5David Kalnischkies
Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-11-09streamline display of --help in all toolsDavid Kalnischkies
By convention, if I run a tool with --help or --version I expect it to exit successfully with the usage, while if I do call it wrong (like without any parameters) I expect the usage message shown with a non-zero exit.
2014-11-08explicit overload methods instead of adding parametersDavid Kalnischkies
Adding a new parameter (with a default) is an ABI break, but you can overload a method, which is "just" an API break for everyone doing references to this method (aka: nobody). Git-Dch: Ignore

2014-11-08use a abi version check similar to the gcc checkDavid Kalnischkies
Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-11-08replace ignore-deprecated #pragma dance with _PragmaDavid Kalnischkies
For compatibility we use/provide and fill quiet some deprecated methods and fields, which subsequently earns us a warning for using them. These warnings therefore have to be disabled for these codeparts and that is what this change does now in a slightly more elegant way. Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-11-08(error) va_list 'args' was opened but not closed by va_end()David Kalnischkies
The manpage of va_start and co additionally says: On some systems, va_end contains a closing '}' matching a '{' in va_start, so that both macros must occur in the same function, and in a way that allows this. So instead of return/breaking instantly, we save the return, make a proper turndown with va_end in all cases and only end after that. Reported-By: cppcheck Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-11-05Bump ABI to 4.15Michael Vogt
2014-10-26rewrite ReadMessages()David Kalnischkies
Central methods of our infrastructure like this one responsible for communication with our methods shouldn't be more complicated then they have to and not claim to have (albeit unlikely) bugs. While I am not sure about having improved the first part, the bug is now gone and a few explicit tests check that it stays that way, so nobody will notice the difference (hopefully) – expect that this should a very tiny bit faster as well as we don't manually proceed through the string. Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-10-24promote filesize to a hashstringDavid Kalnischkies
It is a very simple hashstring, which is why it isn't contributing to the usability of a list of them, but it is also trivial to check and calculate, so it doesn't hurt checking it either as it can combined even with the simplest other hashes greatly complicate attacks on them as you suddenly need a same-size hash collision, which is usually a lot harder to achieve.
2014-10-20test if TMPDIR is accessible before usingDavid Kalnischkies
Private temporary directories as created by e.g. libpam-tmpdir are nice, but they are also very effective in preventing our priviledge dropping to work as TMPDIR will be set to a directory only root has access to, so working with it as _apt will fail. We circumvent this by extending our check for a usable TMPDIR setting by checking access rights. Closes: 765951
2014-10-15set PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS even if sandbox is disabledDavid Kalnischkies
Similar to 8f45798d532223adc378a4ad9ecfc64b3be26e4f, there is no harm to set this, even if we don't drop privileges. Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-10-13Fix backward compatiblity of the new pkgAcquireMethod::DropPrivsOrDie()Michael Vogt
Do not drop privileges in the methods when using a older version of libapt that does not support the chown magic in partial/ yet. To do this DropPrivileges() now will ignore a empty Apt::Sandbox::User. Cleanup all hardcoded _apt along the way.
2014-10-08Merge remote-tracking branch 'mvo/feature/acq-trans' into debian/experimentalMichael Vogt
2014-10-07set PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS also if run as non-rootDavid Kalnischkies
Changing user and co works only as root, but can do some things for methods run as normal user as well to protect them from being able to call setuid binaries like sudo to elevate their privileges. Also uses a cheap trick now to build with old unsupporting kernels.

2014-10-07Ignore EINVAL from prctl(PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS)Michael Vogt
Ignore a EINVAL error here as it means that the kernel is too old to understand this option. We should not fail hard in this case but just ignore the error. closes: 764066

2014-10-03Bump library version to libapt-pkg4.14Michael Vogt
2014-09-30support parsing of all hashes for pdiffDavid Kalnischkies
The fileformat of a pdiff index stores currently only SHA1 hashes. With this change, we look for all other hashes we support as well and take what we get, so that we can work after the release of jessie to get right of SHA1 if we want to. Note that the completely patched file is and was checked against the hashes collected from the Release file, so this transition isn't mission critical.
2014-09-30mark private methods as hiddenDavid Kalnischkies
We are the only possible users of private methods, so we are also the only users who can potentially export them via using them in inline methods. The point is: We don't need these symbols exported if we don't do this, so marking them as hidden removes some methods from the API without breaking anything as nobody could have used them. Git-Dch: Ignore

2014-09-28allow options between command and -- on commandlineDavid Kalnischkies
This used to work before we implemented a stricter commandline parser and e.g. the dd-schroot-cmd command constructs commandlines like this. Reported-By: Helmut Grohne

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.

Some people want to standardize on it, and BSDs do it too, so let's do the same. Reported-by: Paul Wise <pabs@debian.org>
2014-09-24DropPriv: Really call seteuid and not setuid, and add more checksJulian Andres Klode
The only thing we are missing is non-portable saved ids support.
2014-09-24Drop Privileges to "Debian-apt" in most acquire methodsMichael Vogt
Add a new "Debian-apt" user that owns the /var/lib/apt/lists and /var/cache/apt/archive directories. The methods http, https, ftp, gpgv, gzip switch to this user when they start. Thanks to Julian and "ioerror" and tors "switch_id()" code.

2014-09-02Make Proxy-Auto-Detect check for each hostMichael Vogt
When doing Acquire::http{,s}::Proxy-Auto-Detect, run the auto-detect command for each host instead of only once. This should make using "proxy" from libproxy-tools feasible which can then be used for PAC style or other proxy configurations. Closes: #759264
2014-07-16StringToBool: only act if the entire string is consumed by strtol()Michael Vogt
StringToBool uses strtol() internally to check if the argument is a number. This function stops when it does not find any more numbers. So a string like "0ad" (which is a valid packagename) is interpreted as a "0". The code now checks that the entire string is consumed not just a part of it. Thanks to Johannes Schauer for raising this issue.
