**********************
SERVER SECURITY FIXES
* Thanks to a report from Alen Zukich, several minor security issues
have been addressed. One was a buffer overflow that is potentially
serious but which may not be exploitable, assigned CAN-2005-0753 by
the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project
<http://www.cve.mitre.org>. Other fixes resulting from Alen's report
include repair of an arbitrary free with no known exploit and several
plugged memory leaks and potentially freed NULL pointers which may
have been exploitable for a denial of service attack.
* Thanks to a report from Craig Monson, minor potential
vulnerabilities in the contributed Perl scripts have been fixed.
The confirmed vulnerability could allow the execution of arbitrary
code on the CVS server, but only if a user already had commit access
and if one of the contrib scripts was installed improperly,
a condition which should have been quickly visible to any
administrator. The complete description of the problem is here:
<https://ccvs.cvshome.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=224>. If you were
making use of any of the contributed trigger scripts on a CVS server,
you should probably still replace them with the new versions, to be
on the safe side.
Unfortunately, our fix is incomplete. Taint-checking has been
enabled in all the contributed Perl scripts intended to be run as
trigger scripts, but no attempt has been made to ensure that they
still run in taint mode. You will most likely have to tweak the
scripts in some way to make them run. Please send any patches you
find necessary back to <bug-cvs@gnu.org> so that we may again ship
fully enabled scripts in the future.
You should also make sure that any home-grown Perl scripts that you
might have installed as CVS triggers also have taint-checking enabled.
This can be done by adding `-T' on the scripts' #! lines. Please try
running `perldoc perlsec' if you would like more information on
general Perl security and taint-checking.
BUG FIXES
* Thanks to a report and a patch from Georg Scwharz
CVS now builds without error on IRIX 5.3
DEVELOPER ISSUES
* We've standardized on Automake 1.9.5 to get some at new features
that make our jobs easier. See the HACKING file for more on using
the autotools with CVS.
