1 userv (0.60.1) frozen unstable; urgency=high
3 * Fixed failure to save pathnames in a couple of places in parser.c.
4 Without this, include-directory would often try to open a garbage
5 filename. This could be a security problem in certain cases where
6 user-owned config files were included from sysadmin-defined files,
7 and the sysadmin wants to control how a user provides services.
9 * Fix failure to terminate string properly in parser.c, which would usually
10 cause "-quoted strings to be mishandled. (This is not thought to
11 be security-critical, and the bug can be avoided by not using
12 "-quoted strings in configuration files.)
14 * Fixed spurious failure with `Interrupted system call' on systems
15 where fread can fail due to read giving EINTR (blech!)
17 * Fixed race when fd closed at startup, which could cause
18 `system call failure: kill cat for <fd>: No such process'.
20 * Fixed spurious assertion failure if user's home directory not
22 * Fixed a couple of memory and fd leaks in error exits from
23 include-directory and include-lookup in parser.c.
25 * Debian and `upstream' version integrated; Changelogs merged.
27 * Provided `system.default' file checks /etc/userv/services.d and
28 /etc/userv/default.d; system.override runs /etc/userv/override.d.
30 * Add <string.h> to servexec.c.
31 * Add -D_GNU_SOURCE to CFLAGS in configure.in.
32 * Braces added in client.c to prevent GCC `ambiguous else' warning.
35 * autoconf-generated files included in CVS.
37 * Debian package description mentions use by system admin.
42 *** Main changelog file included here - see far down this file for the
43 *** pre-0.60 Debian-specific changes.
46 userv (0.58); urgency=high
48 * Fixed failure to set gid when invoking service !!
49 * Fixed failure to set fd value in et_closereadfd messages from client.
51 * Save filename string in parse_file for error reporting (in case it is
52 overwritten by parsing code).
53 * Fixed obscure race in process.c:getevent (et_closereadfd and hold fds).
54 * `builtin version' service had error message and errno string reserve

95 problems with sizeof and size_t; EPROTO missing workaround.
96 * Note about SIG_IGN and `function declaration isn't a prototype' added
97 to INSTALL file in new PROBLEMS section.
