2017-02-22remove 'old' FAILED files in the next acquire callDavid Kalnischkies
If apt renames a file to .FAILED it leaves its namespace and is never touched again – expect since 1.1~exp4 in which "apt clean" will remove those files. The usefulness of these files rapidly degrades if you don't keep the update log itself (together with debug output in the best case) through and on 99% of all system they will be kept around forever just to collect dust over time and eat up space. With this commit an update call will remove all FAILED files of previous runs, so that the FAILED files you have on disk are always only the ones related to the last apt run stopping apt from hoarding files.

2017-02-22avoid validate/delete/load race in cache generationDavid Kalnischkies
Keeping the Fd of the cache file we have validated around to later load it into the mmap ensures not only that we load the same file (which wouldn't really be a problem in practice), but that this file also still exists and wasn't deleted e.g. by a 'apt clean' call run in parallel.

2017-02-22fix minimum pkgs option for dpkg --recursive usageDavid Kalnischkies
Interpreting a boolean as an int works just fine – it just hasn't the intended result – it isn't a serious problem through as the disabling of the usage of this dpkg calling style is just an "optimization" (cherry picked from commit 4e18c2cee6da39982cc463cafbf27eab5561099f)

2017-02-22get pdiff files from the same mirror as the indexDavid Kalnischkies
In ad9416611ab83f7799f2dcb4bf7f3ef30e9fe6f8 we fall back to asking the original mirror (e.g. a redirector) if we do not get the expected result. This works for the indexes, but patches are a different beast and much simpler. Adding this fallback code here seems like overkill as they are usually right along their Index file, so actually forward the relevant settings to the patch items which fixes pdiff support combined with a redirector and partial mirrors as in such a situation the pdiff patches would be 404 and the complete index would be downloaded.

2017-02-22do not configure unconfigured to be removed packagesDavid Kalnischkies
We try to configure all packages at the end which need to be configured, but that also applies to packages which weren't completely installed (e.g. maintainerscript failed) we end up removing in this interaction instead. APT doesn't perform this explicit configure in the end as it is using "dpkg --configure --pending", but it does confuse the progress report and potentially also hook scripts.

2017-02-22don't perform implicit crossgrades involving M-A:sameDavid Kalnischkies

2017-02-22improve arch-unqualified dpkg-progress parsingDavid Kalnischkies
Our old idea was to look for the first package which would be "touched" and take this as the package dpkg is talking about, but that is incorrect in complicated situations like a package upgraded to/from multiple M-A:same siblings installed. As we us the progress report to decide what is still needed we have to be reasonabily right about the package dpkg is talking about, so we jump to quite a few loops to get it.

2017-02-22correct cross & disappear progress detectionDavid Kalnischkies
Given that we use the progress information to skip over actions dpkg has already done like not purging a package which was already removed and had no config files or not acting on disappeared packages and such it is important that apt and dpkg agree on which states the package has to pass through. To ensure that we keep tabs on this in the future a warning is added at the end if apt hasn't seen all the action it was supposed to see. I can't wait for the first bugreporters to wonder about this… (cherry picked from commit dabe9e2482180ada77d2adda2b3c03db22059fb8)
2017-02-22react to trig-pend only if we have nothing else to doDavid Kalnischkies
If a package is triggered dpkg frequently issues two messages about it causing us to make a note about it both times which messes up our planned dpkg actions view. Adding these actions if we have nothing else planned fixes this and should still be correct as those planned actions will deal with the triggering just fine and we avoid strange problems like a package triggered before its removed… (cherry picked from commit 066d4a5bab628ef8220971bb5763ff8f3a13de07)

We can't cleanup the environment like e.g. sudo would do as you usually want the environment to "leak" into these helpers, but some variables like HOME should really not have still the value of the root user – it could confuse the helpers (USER) and HOME isn't accessible anyhow.

2017-02-22keep Release.gpg on untrusted to trusted IMS-HitDavid Kalnischkies
A user relying on the deprecated behaviour of apt-get to accept a source with an unknown pubkey to install a package containing the key expects that the following 'apt-get update' causes the source to be considered as trusted, but in case the source hadn't changed in the meantime this wasn't happening: The source kept being untrusted until the Release file was changed. This only effects sources not using InRelease and only apt-get, the apt binary downright refuses this course of actions, but it is a common way of adding external sources. Closes: 838779 (cherry picked from commit 84eec207be35b8c117c430296d4c212b079c00c1) LP: #1657440
2016-12-08gpgv: Flush the files before checking for errorsJulian Andres Klode
This is a follow up to the previous issue where we did not check if getline() returned -1 due to an end of file or due to an error like memory allocation, treating both as end of file. Here we ensure that we also handle buffered writes correctly by flushing the files before checking for any errors in our error stack. Buffered writes themselves were introduced in 1.1.9, but the function was never called with a buffered file from inside apt until commit 46c4043d741cb2c1d54e7f5bfaa234f1b7580f6c which was first released with apt 1.2.10. The function is public, though, so fixing this is a good idea anyway. Affected: >= 1.1.9 (cherry picked from commit 6212ee84a517ed68217429022bd45c108ecf9f85)
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.

2016-09-18VersionHash: Do not skip too long dependency linesJulian Andres Klode
If the dependency line does not contain spaces in the repository but does in the dpkg status file (because dpkg normalized the dependency list), the dpkg line might be longer than the line in the repository. If it now happens to be longer than 1024 characters, it would be skipped, causing the hashes to be out of date. Note that we have to bump the minor cache version again as this changes the format slightly, and we might get mismatches with an older src cache otherwise. Fixes Debian/apt#23
2016-09-11Coverage: Do not print messages from gcovJulian Andres Klode
We need to ignore messages from gcov. All those messages start with profiling: and are printed using vfprintf(), so the only thing we can do is add a library overriding those functions and linking apt-pkg to it.
2016-09-07edsp: try 2 to read responses even if writing failedDavid Kalnischkies
Commit b60c8a89c281f2bb945d426d2215cbf8f5760738 improved the situation, but due to inconsistency mostly for planners, not for solvers. As the idea of hiding errors if we show another error is a bit scary (as the extern error might be a followup of our intern error, rather than the reason for our intern error as it is at the moment) we don't discard the errors, but if we got an extern error we show them directly removing them from the error list at the end of the run – that list will contain the extern error which hopefully gives us the best of both worlds. The problem itself is the same as before: The externals exiting before apt is done talking to them. Reported-By: Johannes 'josch' Schauer on IRC
2016-09-02acquire: Use priority queues and a 3 stage pipeline designJulian Andres Klode
Employ a priority queue instead of a normal queue to hold the items; and only add items to the running pipeline if their priority is the same or higher than the priority of items in the queue. The priorities are designed for a 3 stage pipeline system: In stage 1, all Release files and .diff/Index files are fetched. This allows us to determine what files remain to be fetched, and thus ensures a usable progress reporting. In stage 2, all Pdiff patches are fetched, so we can apply them in parallel with fetching other files in stage 3. In stage 3, all other files are fetched (complete index files such as Contents, Packages). Performance improvements, mainly from fetching the pdiff patches before complete files, so they can be applied in parallel: For the 01 Sep 2016 03:35:23 UTC -> 02 Sep 2016 09:25:37 update of Debian unstable and testing with Contents and appstream for amd64 and i386, update time reduced from 37 seconds to 24-28 seconds. Previously, apt would first download new DEP11 icon tarballs and metadata files, causing the CPU to be idle. By fetching the diffs in stage 2, we can now patch our contents and Packages files while we are downloading the DEP11 stuff.

2016-09-01try not to call memcpy with length 0 in hash calculationsDavid Kalnischkies
memcpy is marked as nonnull for its input, but ignores the input anyhow if the declared length is zero. Our SHA2 implementations do this as well, it was "just" MD5 and SHA1 missing, so we add the length check here as well as along the callstack as it is really pointless to do all these method calls for "nothing".

2016-08-31Base256ToNum: Fix uninitialized valueJulian Andres Klode
If the inner Base256ToNum() returned false, it did not set Num to a new value, causing it to be uninitialized, and thus might have caused the function to exit despite a good result. Also document why the Res = Num, if (Res != Num) magic is done. Reported-By: valgrind
2016-08-31TagFile: Fix off-by-one errors in comment strippingJulian Andres Klode
Adding 1 to the value of d->End - current makes restLength one byte too long: If we pass memchr(current, ..., restLength) has thus undefined behavior. Also, reading the value of current has undefined behavior if current >= d->End, not only for current > d->End: Consider a string of length 1, that is d->End = d->Current + 1. We can only read at d->Current + 0, but d->Current + 1 is beyond the end of the string. This probably caused several inexplicable build failures on hurd-i386 in the past, and just now caused a build failure on Ubuntu's amd64 builder. Reported-By: valgrind
2016-08-31Fix segfault and out-of-bounds read in Binary fieldsJulian Andres Klode
If a Binary field contains one or more spaces before a comma, the code produced a segmentation fault, as it accidentally set a pointer to 0 instead of the value of the pointer. If the comma is at the beginning of the field, the code would create a binStartNext that points one element before the start of the string, which is undefined behavior. We also need to check that we do not exit the string during the replacement of spaces before commas: A string of the form " ," would normally exit the boundary of the Buffer: binStartNext = offset 1 ',' binEnd = offset 0 ' ' isspace_ascii(*binEnd) = true => --binEnd => binEnd = - 1 We get rid of the problem by only allowing spaces to be eliminated if they are not the first character of the buffer: binStartNext = offset 1 ',' binEnd = offset 0 ' ' binEnd > buffer = false, isspace_ascii(*binEnd) = true => exit loop => binEnd remains 0

2016-08-29don't loop on pinning pkgs from absolute debs by regexDavid Kalnischkies
An absolute filename for a *.deb file starts with a /. A package with the name of the file is inserted in the cache which is provided by the "real" package for internal reasons. The pinning code detects a regex based wildcard by having the regex start with /. That is no problem as a / can not be included in a package name… expect that our virtual filename package can and does. We fix this two ways actually: First, a regex is only being considered a regex if it also ends with / (we don't support flags). That stops our problem with the virtual filename packages already, but to be sure we also do not enter the loop if matcher and package name are equal. It has to be noted that the creation of pins for virtual packages like the here effected filename packages is pointless as only versions can be pinned, but checking that a package is really purely virtual is too costly compared to just creating an unused pin. Closes: 835818
2016-08-29randomize acquire order for same type index filesDavid Kalnischkies
Without randomizing the order in which we download the index files we leak needlessly information to the mirrors of which architecture is native or foreign on this system. More importantly, we leak the order in which description translations will be used which in most cases will e.g. have the native tongue first. Note that the leak effect in practice is limited as apt detects if a file it wants to download is already available in the latest version from a previous download and does not query the server in such cases. Combined with the fact that Translation files are usually updated infrequently and not all at the same time, so a mirror can never be sure if it got asked about all files the user wants.

Several modules use std::array without including the array header. Bad modules. Some modules use STDOUT_FILENO and friends, or close() without including unistd.h, where they are defined. One module also uses WIFEXITED() without including sys/wait.h. Finally, environ is not specified to be defined in unistd.h. We are required to define it ourselves according to POSIX, so let's do that.
2016-08-25treat .ddeb files like .deb, especially for dpkgDavid Kalnischkies
Ubuntu uses *.ddeb files for their debug packages, but the interface we are using since f495992428a396e0f98886c9a761a804aa161c68 to talk to dpkg isn't supporting *.ddeb files. This used to work previously as apt itself isn't caring about the filenames at all and if they are explicitly mentioned dpkg will accept all, too. It might or might not be a good idea to patch dpkg, too, but regardless of it happening, we don't want to couple us to closely to dpkg for this minor feature but testing for this at runtime as it would delay shipping the fix for the too long commandlines further. It is also questionable if it is really a good idea to allow any file extension to be used here (like .foobar in the testcase), but we used to and we tend to avoid breaking existing usecases if we can help it. As a bonus, this also allows the installation of ddeb files directly from the commandline as you can with deb files already. We continue to ignore udeb through as the user-mistake to useful ratio is too high. LP: #1616909
2016-08-24do not restore selections for already purged packagesDavid Kalnischkies
In most cases apt was already skipping the (re)setting of packages as to be removed/purged if dpkg had told us that it already did, but we haven't dealt with it in the most obvious of the cases: Selections set for packages we touched in this operation which either restores selections even dpkg would have overridden or e.g. tries to restore a purge selection for a package which was just purged – does not happen with apt itself as it isn't using selections in this way, but higher frontends like aptitude do. The result in the later case is a warning printed by dpkg that we try to set selections for an unknown package, which is harmless per se, but can be confusing for users and we really shouldn't cause warnings in dpkg if we can help it.

2016-08-24do fail on weakhash/loop earlier in acquireDavid Kalnischkies
The bugreport shows a segfault caused by the code not doing the correct magical dance to remove an item from inside a queue in all cases. We could try hard to fix this, but it is actually better and also easier to perform these checks (which cause instant failure) earlier so that they haven't entered queue(s) yet, which in return makes cleanup trivial. The result is that we actually end up failing "too early" as if we wouldn't be careful download errors would be logged before that process was even started. Not a problem for the acquire system, but likely to confuse users and programs alike if they see the download process producing errors before apt was technically allowed to do an acquire (it didn't, so no violation, but it looks like it to the untrained eye).

2016-08-23do dpkg --configure before --remove/--purge --pendingDavid Kalnischkies
Commit 7ec343309b7bc6001b465c870609b3c570026149 got us most of the way, but the last mile was botched by having the pending calls in the wrong order as this way we potentially 'force' dpkg to remove/purge a package it doesn't want to as another package still depends on it and the replacement isn't fully installed yet. So what we do now is a configure before remove and purge (all with --no-triggers) and finishing off with another configure pending call to take care of the triggers. Note that in the bugreport example our current planner is forcing dpkg to remove the package earlier via --force-depends which we could do for the pending calls as well and could be used as a workaround, but we want to do less forcing eventually.

2016-08-19Ignore SIGINT and SIGQUIT for Pre-Install hooksJulian Andres Klode
Instead of erroring out when receiving a SIGINT, let the child deal with it - we'll error out anyway if the child exits with an error or due to the signal. Also ignore SIGQUIT, as system() ignores it. This basically fixes Bug #832593, but: we are running the hooks via sh -c. Some shells exit with a signal error even if the command they are executing catches the signal and exits successfully. So far, this has been noticed on dash, which unfortunately, is our default shell. Example: $ cat trap.sh trap 'echo int' INT; sleep 10; exit 0 $ if dash -c ./trap.sh; then echo OK: $?; else echo FAIL: $?; fi ^Cint FAIL: 130 $ if mksh -c ./trap.sh; then echo OK: $?; else echo FAIL: $?; fi ^Cint OK: 0 $ if bash -c ./trap.sh; then echo OK: $?; else echo FAIL: $?; fi ^Cint OK: 0
