 I'm sorry if I'm stepping on anybody's toes, but this reeks of
 unnoticed loose end. This bug is still identified as grave, and is
 counted as release critical in etch.

It isn't counted as release-critical in etch because it's tagged 'sarge',
but it doesn't hurt to document it as closed in that etch version either.

Cheers,

  Hum, this is not what I read. Do you agree that the license basically
  states that the Department of Defense has only  Restricted Rights as

 Does that make it clearer?
No, sorry. I already know that the first part is the restrictive one and the 
last part is the permissive one. The problem is that I see them as 
conflicting.

  IANAL, but this seems to prohibit some things allowed by the GPL to the
  U.S. government. If I understand right, the U.S. Department of Defense
   is not allowed to redistribute or copy freely des.tcl, which would
   violate the DFSG.
  
  No, this is a statement that the copyright on the work is not *waived*

  defined in Clause 252.227-7013 (c) (1) of DFARs on the software?

 Have you read the cited clause of DFARs?
Yes.
 The numbering listed in this 
 clause appears to be obsolete, but Restricted Rights as specified in the
 current version enumerates an extensive list of things the government is
 allowed to do.
Yes but as I wrote this doesn't seem allow to redistribute or copy freely.

 But in any case, the following sentence is what matters:

   Notwithstanding the foregoing, the authors grant the U.S. Government and
   others acting in its behalf permission to use and distribute the software
   in accordance with the terms specified in this license.

 IOW, in *spite* of citing this government regulation, permission is granted
 to use and distribute the software *under the normal license*.
This is also what I read. Do you agree that given the content of this 
government regulation, the license is/looks conflicting?

 Again, this is an effort to keep the government from claiming *more* rights
 over the software than what's permitted by the usual license, not to
 prevent the government from exercising rights that are granted to everyone
 else.
To make it clear, I believed you when you first stated this. But re-reading 
the license, it's still not how I interpret what's written.

Bug#410946: debsecan: Overwrites local configuration

2007-02-16 Thread Florian Weimer
* Frank Küster:

 Since all that debsecan-create-cron does is to choose a random time, set
 the suite and decide whether the file should exist at all, it shouldn't
 be hard to do that in a policy-conformant way:

The main reason why I did this way is that it's difficult to
reschedule the actual work done by debsecan merely by editing the
crontab entry.

 - chosing a random time is only needed when the file doesn't exist

Okay.

 - the suite can be changed by a simple sed -i command

This is also wrong because this is a crontab entry, not a
configuration file.  You cannot assume anything about its syntax
(beyond the part which is interpreted by cron).

sed -i is also not available on sarge IIRC, but it's esay to work
around that.

It seems that the correct fix is another level of indirection: The
actual configuration has to be put into a file with tighter syntactic
constraints.

Hello,

All versions prior to the 0.90 stable release are suspected to be vulnerable to
a directory traversal vulnerability that allows remote attackers to overwrite
files owned by the clamd scanner, such as the virus database file. This has been
assigned the name CVE-2007-0898, and has been fixed in upstream 0.90. A sarge

Bug#410946: debsecan: Overwrites local configuration

2007-02-16 Thread Frank Küster
Florian Weimer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 - the suite can be changed by a simple sed -i command

 This is also wrong because this is a crontab entry, not a
 configuration file.  You cannot assume anything about its syntax
 (beyond the part which is interpreted by cron).

That's a point.

 sed -i is also not available on sarge IIRC, but it's esay to work
 around that.

Yes, is debsecan on backports.org?

 It seems that the correct fix is another level of indirection: The
 actual configuration has to be put into a file with tighter syntactic
 constraints.

That's what I wanted to suggest when I read your remark.

Hi,

 There are more web applications in Debian accessing to /etc. For example 
 PhpMyAdmin:
 
   ~$  ls -l /usr/share/phpldapadmin/config/config.php
   config.php - /etc/phpldapadmin/config.php

Thanks for using my package as an example, but this way of referencing
the config is not insecure.

Hello Mark,

postinst and postrm include

if [ -e /usr/bin/update-menus ]; then
  update-menus

Actually they should check whether /usr/bin/update-menus is executable
(with -x), it is not sufficient to check if the file exists, since
/usr/bin/update-menus is shipped without the x bit which is added later
by menu postinst.

Apologies. I'll contact the upstream about this bug report now. 
Unfortunately Matthijs is currently very busy at work so he didn't handle 
it yet. And I had no internet connection for a while that kept me from 
working on it. So the package has actually been badly maintained for a 
while. I will try to improve that.

 If you'd give your opinion on whether or not removing the bind backend
 would be an acceptable solution, someone could make an upload of it.

Let us first see what the upstream thinks of it. If I don't get a timely 
answer we can still consider removing the bind backend.

Help is definitely welcome in maintaining the package. But I'll get on my 
backlog today anyway.

 Christoph

Bug#402603: tomcat5.5: blocks on startup until log pipe is read

2007-02-16 Thread Adrian Bridgett
I've fixed this locally in two ways:

a) use cronolog and alter init.d (see attached diff)
Pro: simple
Con: end up with two logs

b) using log4j
Pro: catalina.log file has predictable name for log analysis
Con: more complicated

for b) you need to delete the -outfile and -errfile line from the
init.d script, then create
/usr/share/tomcat5.5/common/classes/log4j.properties (attached)
finally creating two symlinks:
ln -s ../../../java/log4j-1.2.jar
/usr/share/tomcat5.5/common/lib/log4j.jar
ln -s ../../../java/commons-logging.jar
/usr/share/tomcat5.5/common/lib/commons$

I'm actually using method b) because it's essential that I have a
predictable filename for log monitoring.

Bug#401916: Bug 401916: analysis and suggested solution

2007-02-16 Thread David Härdeman
I've spent more time researching this by reading kernel code, checking the
boot process of other distros and trolling through mailing list archives
and I think I have a pretty good picture of the problem now.



Description:

Basically udevsettle will return once all modules have been loaded and no
more uevents are pending. all modules include e.g. scsi host drivers and
usb host drivers. The problem is that even if a module has been loaded for
a usb host which has a storage device attached, the usb host driver will
not emit uevents for the device immediately. Instead the scanning is done
asynchronously and might take an arbitrary amount of time (based on things
like the reset-time of the storage device, which can be several seconds,
the number of hubs between the host and the device, etc).

The same goes for several other buses (e.g. SCSI, Firewire, fibre-channel,
etc), and we won't be able to solve it completely by watching kernel
threads (the approach that I tried in earlier mails to the same BR).



Short-term solution:

Therefore, I think the best short-term solution (considering the
ever-impending Etch release) would be to add the root_wait= boot
parameter so that affected users can set the timeout value manually. If
that parameter was added, and documented in the release docs, the severity
of these bugs could be downgraded (imho).

Alternatively, or additionally, the scripts could check whether one of
several problematic modules have been loaded when udevsettle returns and
if so, sleep a couple of extra seconds (most other distros that take this
approach seem to wait around 6 - 10 seconds). The problem is that the list
of problematic modules is potentially huge (see list of buses above)



Long-term solution:

In the long term (post-Etch), I think something like the following might
be a good solution:

Take all scripts under /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/ that
setup block devices (i.e. cryptsetup, lvm, evms, etc), and split them in
two, a udev rule snippet and a script.

The udev rule snippet would list the devices that this particular script
is interested in, and tell udev to call the script whenever such a device
node is created.

The script is basically the old script with minor changes so that it takes
a device node as argument, and also so that it doesn't preserve any state
between invocations.

Then the main init script is changed to sleep until $ROOT (not /dev/root
but whatever is set as the $ROOT variable) appears



Advantages of the long-term approach:

there will be no more sleeping than necessary
everything will be asynchronous
there will be no need to specify dependencies between the
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/ scripts

The last one might seem minor, but it actually makes the system much
simpler. Right now it is not possible to support both crypto-on-lvm and
lvm-on-crypto without duplicating the lvm functionality in the cryptsetup
initramfs script (as you can tell initramfs to run lvm before or after
cryptsetup, but not both).



Example:

Let's say we have the scripts lvm, cryptsetup and md in
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/blockdev-scripts/

Each script has a udev rule snippet in
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/blockdev-rules/

Most probably these rule snippets would be something like (this is
probably not a valid udev rule, I can't check the syntax right now):
KERNEL=[sh]d[a-z],
PROGRAM=/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/blockdev-rules/md

Let's say that /dev/sda1 is detected.

udev will then use its rules to execute
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/blockdev-scripts/lvm which will check
the device, realize it's no lvm pv and exit

the same thing then happens for the cryptsetup script

the md script recognizes /dev/sda1 as a raid partition, but it is missing
an additional device, so no action is taken

Later, /dev/sdb1 is detected.

udev calls the lvm script again, which exits again

the same thing then happends for the cryptsetup script

the md script recognizes /dev/sdb1 as a raid partition, and /dev/sda1 is
the other part of the raid device, so the device is setup and a new uevent
is triggered

in response, udev creates /dev/md1 and starts going through the scripts again

udev calls the lvm script again, which exits again

udev calls the cryptsetup script which recognizes /dev/md1 as a crypto
device, prompts for the password and sets it up, this generates another
uevent

in response, udev creates /dev/mapper/cryptroot and starts going through
the scripts again

udev calls the lvm script again, which recognizes /dev/mapper/cryptroot as
a lvm pv and sets up the vg and its lv's

the lv's generate new uevents

in response, udev creates (among others) /dev/mapper/mainvg-mainlv

init notices this and boot continues



Phew, this mail became much longer than expectedso whaddaya think Maks?

Why don't we simply drop a script into /etc/cron.hourly which sleeps

Severity: grave
Tags: patch, security

CVE-2006-6980 says[1]:

The ruby handlers in Amarok do not properly quote text in certain 
contexts, probably including construction of an unzip command line, 
which allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell 
metacharacters.

There is an open KDE bug report[2], and SuSE has patched this 
problem.  I'm working on extracting the patches now...

Frank Küster [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 The problems with ucf are:

The most important reason, IMHO, was the one I forgot: You either loose
a main assets of debconf, or you ask twice.

Consider that in a new version of the package, a default answer to the
debconf question changes, and people who upgrade should have a chance to
know about this.

If you parse the configuration file, anyway, you can then determine if
it has the former, old default, and set the debconf question to unseen
(or even display an additional note in advance).  Subsequently, the
postinst writes the answer into the file.  If you do the same with ucf,
the user will be asked by debconf, and a second time by ucf.  If you use
just ucf, and do not set the debconf question to unseen, the user only
has the file and the comments in it, but not the (translatable) debconf
questions.

The double asking will also be triggered with dpkg-reconfigure.

Bug#411170: SATA failures with amd64 version of Etch

I have saved as much of syslog as was flushed right before giving up (at
the rate it was going it would have taken days to finish -- if ever --
what completed successfully in under a half hour using the i386 version)
on the last attempt (I also have the complete partman log), and will be
happy to post them (or make them available via HTTP) if you believe they
will be of any use.

I have run hardware diagnostic tests on the drives and on the memory,
and everything is reported as healthy.  I did the same installation
successfully using the i386 version of Etch.  For the successful
installation only two changes were made:

 1. I left the results of partitioning the hardware disks from the
last pass with the amd64 installer, and picked up with doing
the RAID configuration as before; and
 2. i selected a different ethernet device.

Debian versions:

Debian GNU/Linux testing Etch - Official Snapshot amd64 Binary-1
(20061110) [failed]
Debian GNU/Linux testing Etch - Official Snapshot i386 Binary-1
20070215-23:10 [succeeded]

Hardware:

2 x ATA WDC WD2500JS-60N Rev: 10.0 disks
[configured using Linux software RAID level 1; the RAID support on the
motherboard is disabled]

I'll be glad to supply any other information that will help track down
the cause for the failure.

As the mime module is not loaded, the TypesConfig directive cannot be used.

hey Bob,
  Its very likely that the success of the i386 install wasn't due to
the architecture, but rather to a newer kernel used (kernel has changed

I got access to an ARM box, and was unable to reproduce this problem.

Linux debian 2.6.18-4-iop32x #1 Sat Feb 3 12:15:12 UTC 2007 armv5tel GNU/Linux

The machine was running couple months old sid, and it was upgraded to

The only difference in package versions that I can see is libc6,

Thanks, Dann.  I'll give it a try.  I was trying (but I guess didn't 
succeed very well) to pull down the frozen release candidate of Etch 
when I downloaded the 20061110 images.  (I've been planning a switch

the release of Debian 4.0.  I figured I'd do my part by testing it 
before the release to see if I could catch any bugs before it went out

I'll report back the results with the newer kernel.

Hi,

 It seems the ascii_type[] table maps some RAID usage to the raid45
 device mapper target, but I think the raid[45] modules were dropped in
 2.6.18 in favor of raid456.

 This was reported as preventing any use of dmraid by Paul Logasa Bogen
 II in Debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/411172; he is using 2.6.18.

Your best bet is one of these images:

RC1 is no longer usable (see the News section) - RC2 should be

I'm going to go ahead and close this bug as I'm fairly certain it has
been fixed, but don't hestitate to reopen if you run into it again w/
the latest build.

 Thanks, Dann.  I'll give it a try.  I was trying (but I guess didn't succeed 
 very well) to pull 
 down the frozen release candidate of Etch when I downloaded the 20061110 
 images.  (I've been 
 planning a switch from RedHat to Debian for my main server, and was trying to 
 time it with the 
 release of Debian 4.0.  I figured I'd do my part by testing it before the 
 release to see if I 
 could catch any bugs before it went out the door.  Can you tell me which 
 version is the release 
 candidate for 4.0?) 
 I'll report back the results with the newer kernel.

Your best bet is one of these images:
 http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/

RC1 is no longer usable (see the News section) - RC2 should be
available Real Soon Now.

I'm going to go ahead and close this bug as I'm fairly certain it has
been fixed, but don't hestitate to reopen if you run into it again w/
the latest build.

Bug#388616: Upgrade

 Le jeudi 8 février 2007 22:17, Steve Langasek a écrit :
  I think the bug #388616 should be granted this etc-ignore. The
  configuration file is never shiped with the package nor generated by the
  software. It is generated in config/ directory, and happen normaly only
  at first install.

 My question here is, if the software looks for the config in /var/lib out
 of necessity, 

No, it doesn't.

 why does the package ship a symlink under /etc/ when that
 symlink a) will overwrite any attempts by the user to turn this into a real
 file (for whatever reason), and b) will complicate upgrades in the future
 when mediawiki's FHS bug is fixed so that the conffile *can* be moved to
 /etc?

 Yes we could just remove the link and add a file like README.mediawiki or any 
 other name in which we just explain where the user can find the confile...

 Indeed, that would propably be enought to close the two other bug for a small 
 amount of change this time.

Alternatively, you could just as well fix it.  I have never used
mediawiki before, but I gave it a try.  It works very well with a
symlink in the other direction and LocalSettings.php in
/etc/mediawiki1.7/, conforming with policy.  The only change that needs
to be made is that $IP must be set to /var/lib/mediawiki1.7 in
/etc/mediawiki1.7/LocalSettings.php 

For packaging the following changes need to be made:

- mediawiki.1.7.links changed

- the instructions in config/index.php and README.Debian must be changed
  to reflect the new location, 

- the same needs to be done with AdminSettings.php (and it's handling in
  postinst and config must be rewritten).  

All nothing that requires magic.

I just didn't write a complete patch because I am not sure of the
purpose of the upgrade code in config/postinst.

Hi,

the vulnerabilities on secunia.com have been fixed long time ago (see 
their recommendation to upgrade).


The patch you supplied is actually not enough to prohibit users from 
entering script code. I fixed following additional cases:


- Enter a user name, full name or email address conaining JavaScript
- Doing a search by entering JavaScript in an attribute search field
- Entering JavaScript in a quick filter text box.

The fixes are contained in SVN revision 1792.

 The only difference in package versions that I can see is libc6,

Hmm, a minimal test case that's impressive for its complexity. :)

Here is another further reduction that still triggers the bug for me:

  k3d-dev kview kde-i18n-af zope2.7-mimetypesregistry

In both cases the failure is reproducible with apt-get, and is not
reproducible with aptitude (using apt-get to install the packages so none of
them are marked as auto-installed, but aptitude for the dist-upgrade).  I
can't say whether this is because aptitude is better, or just luck of the
draw.

Comments on the upgrade solution arrived at for apt for this particular
upgrade:

 k3d-dev and k3d are both upgraded, pulling in new versions of boost.  If
 only k3d is installed, apt removes k3d and zope2.7 is removed
 successfully.

 kview and kde-i18n-af are both removed, along with kdelibs-bin and
 kdelibs4; if either kview or kde-i18n-af is not installed, kdelibs is still
 removed but zope2.7 is removed successfully.  libqt3c102-mt is left
 untouched on the system, because nothing is pulled in that conflicts with
 it.

  This looks like an apt bug to me (and isn't the first time I've seen it).

 Any pointer ?

Not specifically, sorry.  It was a user who reported a similar bug against
php, where again apt-get removed a dependency before the package depending
on it under circumstances where this didn't appear to be necessary (and
certainly wasn't appropriate).

Bug#410204: linux-image-2.6.18-4-amd64: Data corruption on dm-crypt+XFS

2007-02-16 Thread Steve Langasek
Hi Sami,

I'm told that dmcrypt+XFS has never worked in the upstream kernel or in
Debian, so this is essentially an unsupported configuration.  But you've
filed this bug as critical with the justification that it causes serious
data loss.  Did you lose data as a result of this bug?  Could you explain
the process by which that happened?  It's my impression that this
combination is so unreliable that it will oops before you really have a
chance to try to use it for storing data, so you can't really lose any data
if you can't put it there in the first place.

Based on the status as a known-buggy and unsupported config I think this bug
should be downgraded to non-RC status for etch, but I'd like to be sure
first that I understand the impact of any real-world risk of data loss.

Thanks,

Bug#408325: sfsauthd: fatal: Should not be reached - server fails on arm nslu2

2007-02-16 Thread Brian Brunswick

I would say if the server binary has ever worked on any arm machine, then
keep it.




I did manage to start investigating this. I recompiled the package with some
extra trace (very slowly, using qemu)
and got some additional information. Unfortunately, I haven't had time to
continue and follow it up further.

Still, what I did was establish that the case that is occuring is the
explicit setting
of pwd to NULL in authclnt::login_unixpw.

So aap-pwauth-password is presumably coming in as an empty string, and of
course
I was trying to sfs_register as root. That is supposed to work still, isn't
it?
I have a [EMAIL PROTECTED] usable sfs login on my server, but I set it up some
time ago

So I thought I would try registering as a non-root user, and in that case
sfs_authd didn't crash,
and indeed I got prompted for a unix password, which I didn't get as root.

But also, as far as I could tell, I still couldn't sfs login to the machine.
But that needed
more checking (I'm not quite sure about host naming/resolving requirements),
and I haven't got back to the problem since...

If anyone is familiar enough with the code to tell what its supposed to be
doing?

It looks pretty odd to me, and it would be nice to know if that password is
supposed to ever be
empty, or whatever.

Bug#410731: python-twisted-runner should not provide modules for 2.3

2007-02-16 Thread Luis Rodrigo Gallardo Cruz
tag 410731 patch
thanks

Given that
 python-twisted-runner depends: python-twisted-core (= 2.4) 
 python twisted-core  depends: python-twisted-bin (= 2.4.0-3)
 python-twisted-bin depends: python (= 2.4)

It appears that python-twisted-runner won't actually work on python
2.3. Thus, providing modules for 2.3 is pointless. Setting

Python-Version: 2.4
instead of
Python-Version: 2.4, 2.3

should be enough to solve this bug, without the extra cruft that
adding a Replaces: python2.3-twisted-bin would be.

The included patch does that. I have tested it by installing
python-twisted in a sarge chroot then upgrading the chroot to current
etch.

 This license.terms file is not included in amsn. It appears to be the
 one at
 http://tclhttpd.cvs.sourceforge.net/tclhttpd/tclhttpd/license.terms?revision=1.4view=markup
 which contains

 The authors hereby grant permission to use, copy, modify, distribute, and
 license this software and its documentation for any purpose, provided that
 existing copyright notices are retained in all copies and that this notice
 is included verbatim in any distributions.

 As the right to modify is not granted to amsn, this shouldn't be
 distributed in main, but also of course distributing it violates
 copyright as there's no permission granted to distribute.

Er, what?  the authors hereby grant permission to use, copy, modify,
distribute, and license doesn't grant to amsn the right to modify?

Yes, there is a missing license statement, and that is a serious bug.  But I
don't understand the claim that the file shouldn't be distributed.

Bug#410948: license issues with des.tcl

2007-02-16 Thread Steve Langasek

  But in any case, the following sentence is what matters:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the authors grant the U.S. Government and
others acting in its behalf permission to use and distribute the software
in accordance with the terms specified in this license.

  IOW, in *spite* of citing this government regulation, permission is granted
  to use and distribute the software *under the normal license*.
 This is also what I read. Do you agree that given the content of this 
 government regulation, the license is/looks conflicting?

No; the notwithstanding clause supersedes the foregoing.

  Again, this is an effort to keep the government from claiming *more* rights
  over the software than what's permitted by the usual license, not to
  prevent the government from exercising rights that are granted to everyone
  else.
 To make it clear, I believed you when you first stated this. But re-reading 
 the license, it's still not how I interpret what's written.

Well, there's room for greater clarity here; there usually is with license
texts.  If you feel strongly about this wording needing to be improved, you
can reopen the bug at a lower severity, but I wouldn't give you very good
odds of getting the license changed given that citing government regs in
your license is usually a good indication of an institutional mentality that
loves boilerplate.

Oh, sorry. this - amsn in its current state. I just meant that 
developers of amsn don't have the right to modify the file as long as 
license.terms isn't included.
