It's fortunate that the udeb design is so simple then.  Each
effectively mirrors its equivalent deb package, so in almost all
imaginable cases a bug in one will be present in the other, so d-i
specific bugs have been surprisingly uncommon, although yes not
totally unheard of.

It is unfortunate that #750836 took 3 months, and didn't seem to get
the respect that you thought it deserved.  If I had to interpret that
situation, it looks like there was an unintentional communication
breakdown.  Since the workaround in libpcap was implemented so quickly
it appeared on the kfreebsd side that it was no longer a significant a
problem, so it wasn't given the severity you thought it deserved.

It looks like #626232 was fixed so rapidly (less than half a day) that
the porters didn't even have enough time to be needed.  It also looks
like Jakub Wilk solved that one, so it looks like you aren't totally
without help and interest from other developers.

So in conclusion, at least for these specific bugs, help did come
along, but not urgently enough to satisfy your expectations.

Fortunately devref quite clearly disagrees with that sentiment [0],[1].

The NMU is now cancelled; a social stalemate.

I would like to try to find an amicable way to get the change
included.  Do you have any suggestions that could make it more
palatable from your perspective?  Specifically can anything be
improved based on technical merit, and what social changes do you
need?

Best wishes,
Mike

Building the udeb package itself is effectively trivial, so the
possibility for non-trivial consequences seems somewhat unlikely.

Is your concern about debian-boot's ability to block-udeb when
preparing d-i updates, which could affect libpcap transitions?

The current requirement for non-wpa initial setup in kfreebsd's d-i is
a burden, so it would be quite nice to solve that.  Thanks for the
feedback!

Bug#788173: rescue-mode: kfreebsd rescue fails with can't create /dev/md

2015-06-08 Thread Michael Gilbert
package: rescue-mode
version: 1.51
severity: important
x-debbugs-cc: debian-bsd@lists.debian.org

Adding the line set kFreeBSD.rescue/enable=true in a grub entry and
booting the kfreebsd installer fails when executing rescue-mode.  The
error is:

mkdir: can't create directory '/dev/md': Operation not supported

/dev is mounted rw and also doing mkdir manually fails the same.

Bug#778367: kfreebsd-10: CVE-2014-7250 resource consumption issue

2015-02-13 Thread Michael Gilbert
package: src:kfreebsd-10
severity: important
tags: security

Hi,

the following vulnerability was published for kfreebsd-10.

CVE-2014-7250[0]:
| The TCP stack in 4.3BSD Net/2, as used in FreeBSD 5.4, NetBSD possibly
| 2.0, and OpenBSD possibly 3.6, does not properly implement the session
| timer, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
| (resource consumption) via crafted packets.

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities  Exposures) id in your changelog entry.

For further information see:
[0] https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2014-7250

Note that the versions mentioned in the advisory are really old
(freebsd 5.4), but unfortunately there aren't enough details yet to
actually check.

Best wishes,
Mike

This was closed with the removal of src:freebsd-9, but there hasn't
been any actual upstream activity and no real details to be found

2015-01-26 Thread Michael Gilbert
package: src:kfreebsd-10
version: 10.1~svn274115-1
severity: important

The kfreebsd-amd64 installer currently fails for low memory systems.

Something wicked happened.  Press enter for a rescue shell.

$ kvm -m 192 -cdrom debian-jessie-DI-rc1-kfreebsd-amd64-netinst.iso jessie.img

OK

According to the installation guide 128 MB should work:
https://www.debian.org/releases/testing/kfreebsd-amd64/ch02s05.html.en

Note also that installing with 192 MB and then using 128 MB after
installation works, so it is only a problem during installation.

 Have you checked possible impact on the installed size? At least
 kfreebsd has been having regular size-related issues, so it might be
 worth checking this point (even if the ramfs tweaks introduced in the
 past few weeks should avoid further issues).

The install size for dhcp+bind linked isn't much different from the
existing size of dhcp+bind embed, which is about 1.8 MB uncompressed.

 If parallel building worked before you changed things, you get to fix
 the issues rather than working around them. bind9 is a pain to build,
 so having to deal with a forced -j1 is a nasty regression.

It's a rarely used path through the build system (--enable-exportlib),
so it's sort of unsurprising that there was a lurking issue.

Anyway, in the meantime I fixed the problem.  Thanks for the prodding.

 This udeb doesn't make any sense to me.

 $ cat ./debian/libbind-export-udeb/DEBIAN/shlibs
 libdns-export 100 libbind-export-udeb
 libirs-export 91 libbind-export-udeb
 libisc-export 95 libbind-export-udeb
 libisccfg-export 90 libbind-export-udeb

 The udeb is unversioned. ABI is going to be broken as usual in later
 uploads, meaning the udeb shipping these shared objects will break
 reverse dependencies:
   /usr/lib/libisccfg-export.so.90.1.0
   /usr/lib/libdns-export.so.100.2.2
   /usr/lib/libirs-export.so.91.0.0

   /usr/lib/libirs-export.so.91 - libirs-export.so.91.0.0
   /usr/lib/libisc-export.so.95 - libisc-export.so.95.5.0

 I really fail to see how you could possibly imagine anything could work.

I was trying to avoid an explosion in the number of udebs, but I get
your point now that won't work.  I've split up the udebs now so things
can be properly versioned.

 Since we're late in the D-I release cycle, since we're late in the
 release cycle in general (window for transitions closed past month),
 since there was no coordination whatsoever, and since there is
 apparently no well thought through plan, I think I'll oppose isc-dhcp's
 using such a udeb.

Maybe I've addressed your concerns, maybe not, but please consider the
revised changes attached.

Bug#756464: upgrade-reports: [kfreebsd] dist-upgrade to jessie removes the kernel

2014-09-25 Thread Michael Gilbert
Wouldn't this be fixed somewhat simply if freebsd-net-tools had a
depends: kfreebsd-image-10?  So even though freebsd-image-9 gets
removed due the breaks, the user will at least have the newer kernel
and a bootable system.

This does differ from linux dist-upgrades where it is expected that
the current kernel not go away, but that's possible due to their
avoidance of ABI breakage.  Since freebsd doesn't have that goal,
maybe forced kernel dist-upgrade will be simply unavoidable?

 keep the ISC version (mostly from a security POV).

 2MiB looks like a candidate for huge savings, which might make some
 sense since we're repeatedly hitting ENOSPC with kfreebsd-*, don't you
 think?

 Not trying to impose any decision, just a bit shocked while discovering
 its size.

dhclient in the udeb is around 1.7 MiB because of embedded bind, which
was introduced in isc-dhcp 4.2. I plan to spend some time to switch
that to dynamically link, which will reduce size since only the parts
of bind actually used will be needed rather than the whole thing.

Bug#645377: kfreebsd-8: Buffer overflow in handling of UNIX socket addresses

2011-10-14 Thread Michael Gilbert
package: kfreebsd-8
version: 8.1
severity: serious
tag: security , patch

A buffer overflow issue in kfreebsd has been disclosed [0] along with a
poc [1]. patch is available [2].

I've only checked the kfreebsd-8 source, but the description says -7 is
affected, and 9- and higher may be as well; I haven't checked those.

Best wishes,
Mike

 The issue only affects certain non-x86 architectures,
 such as SPARC.

looking at the commit itself [0], i find Dan's conclusion rather
surprising. the affected code is in the 802.11 stack, so it seems like
it should be platform-independent.  i doubt x86 is any better at
handling signedness issues, but i suppose i could be missing something.

best wishes,
mike

Bug#613311: kfreebsd: kernel leak

2011-02-13 Thread Michael Gilbert
package: kfreebsd-8
version: 8.1+dfsg-7.1
severity: important
tags: security

an exploit has been posted for freebsd using a kernel leak and their
ftpd [0]. it's against an ancient version of freebsd (5.3), so it may
not affect newer versions.  i don't have time to verify whether any of
the claims actually affect the debian kfreebsd.  i would suggest
discussing this with upstream.

best wishes,
mike

Bug#601305: kfreebsd-8: pseudofs null ptr dereference exploit

2010-10-24 Thread Michael Gilbert
package: kfreebsd-7
version: 7.3-7
severity: serious
tags: security

another freebsd privilege escalation has been disclosed:
http://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/15206/

this seems different than the recent CVE advisories.  i haven't
checked any of this, but they claim 7.0-7.2 are affected and don't
mention 8, so who knows if its affected.  all of this should be
checked.

thanks,
mike
