dpkg: updated to 1.18.24
dpkg 1.18.24:
* Add missing symbols to the libdpkg map file.
* Fix dpkg-shlibdeps to preserve the Dpkg::Shlibs::find_library() order
when scanning symbols/shlibs files. This was causing generation of bogus
dependencies when multiple packages provide the same SONAME on different
directories. Regression introduced in dpkg 1.18.17.
* Make dpkg-maintscript-helper print all unowned files from a directory
when printing the error message, to ease debugging those problems after
the fact.
Based on a patch by Bastien ROUCARI?<88>S \
<roucaries.bastien@gmail.com>.
* Add duplicate prevention code for debian/files to dpkg-genbuildinfo, so
that successive runs with different versions and equivalent build types
do not generate multiple .buildinfo entries to be uploaded, which is
similar to what dpkg-gencontrol is doing for .deb files.
* Fix conffile takeover handling during unpack in dpkg on --root or
on diversions.
* Fix digest inference for shared conffiles, causing bogus takeover
unpack errors. Regression introduced in dpkg 1.16.9.
* Improve tar entry metadata parsing in dpkg:
- Do not parse device numbers for non block nor char tar entry objects.
- Make the existing octal parser more robust, by checking for the
expected format of leading zeros or spaces, followed by any ASCII
octal characters (0-7), followed by zero or more space or NULs.
- Add support for base-256 encoded numeric fields, to support large
values, for UID/GID, device number, size and even signed timestamps.
This is necessary not only to be able to store larger values, but to
cover packages that can already be generated by dpkg-deb, given that
it uses the system GNU tar when building.
* Architecture support:
- Add support for ARM64 ILP32.
* Perl modules:
- Remove obsolete hardening-wrapper support from Dpkg::Vendor::Ubuntu.
- Bump $Dpkg::Deps::VERSION to match the one documented in CHANGES.
- Ignore by default debian/files.new and debian/files for all source
formats in Dpkg::Source::Package, because these are generated files
with well known pathnames, part of the public interface, and with
dpkg-genbuildinfo always injecting .buildinfo entries into
debian/files, this meant this could disrupt previous workflows based
on not cleaning the source tree.
* Documentation:
- Many spelling fixes.
- Do not include mispellings in changelogs, as that makes detecting them
more difficult.
* Build system:
- Use libexec variable for auxiliary internal programs, and set it to
/usr/lib on Debian and derivatives.
- Check that the detected tar is a GNU tar.
- Check that the detected patch is a GNU patch, so that we get a directory
traversal resistant patch implementation. This fixes CVE-2017-8283 by
delegating those checks to patch(1), so that we trap blank-indented
diff hunks trying to escape from the source tree.
* Test suite:
- Add a test case for blank-indented patches which were the cause for
CVE-2017-8283.
- Handle files with non-zero sizes in c-tarextract libdpkg test code.
