[Bug 265102] Re: bacula not compiled with FORTIFY_SOURCE
This ticket is a bit old. Could someone please try turning on fortify source with a current 5.2.x version and see if there is a problem. If there is I will fix it. That said, I still recommend against using fortify source, as I previously wrote, Bacula has all its own routines since 10 years so adding fortify source will only add unnecessary additional overhead. Just the same, I would like to see this ticket closed one way or another. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to bacula in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/265102 Title: bacula not compiled with FORTIFY_SOURCE To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bacula/+bug/265102/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 265102] Re: bacula not compiled with FORTIFY_SOURCE
This problem *should* already be fixed in the trunk, though I have never actually tried building and running it with fortify source. We *strongly* recommend not to enable fortify source. Bacula is already well protected and has its own buffer overrun detection that in general detects most overrun problems earlier and better than glibc and produces a reasonable traceback in the process. If you do enable fortify source, we cannot exclude that you will encounter other such problems. -- bacula not compiled with FORTIFY_SOURCE https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/265102 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to bacula in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 265102] Re: bacula not compiled with FORTIFY_SOURCE
Yeah, this is mostly a place-holder bug so we can review the roll-out of fortify-source distro-wide. Thanks for looking into it! It does seem clear that glibc got confused about the union size. ** Bug watch added: bugs.bacula.org/ #1138 http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=1138 ** Also affects: bacula via http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=1138 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- bacula not compiled with FORTIFY_SOURCE https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/265102 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to bacula in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
