The netgroups nss modules in the glibc tree use NSS_STATUS_UNAVAIL
(with errno as ERANGE) when the supplied buffer does not have
sufficient space for the result. This is wrong, because the canonical
way to indicate insufficient buffer is to set the errno to ERANGE and
the status to NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN, as is used by all other modules.
This fixes nscd behaviour when the nss_ldap module returns
NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN to indicate that a netgroup entry is too long to
fit into the supplied buffer.

This patch consolidates the code to initialize the header of a dataset
into a single set of functions (one for positive and another for
negative datasets) primarily to reduce repetition of code. The
secondary reason is to simplify Patch 2/2 which fixes the problem of
an uninitialized byte in the header by initializing an unused field in
the structure and hence preventing a possible data leak into the cache
file.

Calls to stpcpy from nscd netgroups code will have overlapping source
and destination when all three values in the returned triplet are
non-NULL and in the expected (host,user,domain) order. This is seen
in valgrind as:
==3181== Source and destination overlap in stpcpy(0x19973b48, 0x19973b48)
==3181== at 0x4C2F30A: stpcpy (in /usr/lib64/valgrind/vgpreload_memcheck-amd64-linux.so)
==3181== by 0x12567A: addgetnetgrentX (string3.h:111)
==3181== by 0x12722D: addgetnetgrent (netgroupcache.c:665)
==3181== by 0x11114C: nscd_run_worker (connections.c:1338)
==3181== by 0x4E3C102: start_thread (pthread_create.c:309)
==3181== by 0x59B81AC: clone (clone.S:111)
==3181==
Fix this by using memmove instead of stpcpy.

nscd works correctly when the request in innetgr is a wildcard,
i.e. when one or more of host, user or domain parameters is NULL.
However, it does not work when the the triplet in the netgroup
definition has a wildcard. This is easy to reproduce for a triplet
defined as follows:
foonet (,foo,)
Here, an innetgr call that looks like this:
innetgr ("foonet", "foohost", "foo", NULL);
should succeed and so should:
innetgr ("foonet", NULL, "foo", "foodomain");
It does succeed with nscd disabled, but not with nscd enabled. This
fix adds this additional check for all three parts of the triplet so
that it gives the correct result.
[BZ #16758]
* nscd/netgroupcache.c (addinnetgrX): Succeed if triplet has
blank values.

The buffer to query netgroup entries is allocated sufficient space for
the netgroup entries and the key to be appended at the end, but it
sends in an incorrect available length to the NSS netgroup query
functions, resulting in overflow of the buffer in some special cases.
The fix here is to factor in the key length when sending the available
buffer and buffer length to the query functions.

Using a buffer after it has been reallocated is undefined behaviour,
so get offsets of the triplets in the old buffer before reallocating
it.
|
|
The _nss_*_getnetgrent_r query populates the netgroup results in the
allocated buffer and then sets the result triplet to point to strings
in the buffer. This is a problem when the buffer is reallocated since
the pointers to the triplet strings are no longer valid. The pointers
need to be adjusted so that they now point to strings in the
reallocated buffer.

addgetnetgrentX has a buffer which is grown as per the needs of the
requested size either by using alloca or by falling back to malloc if
the size is larger than 1K. There are two problems with the alloca
bits: firstly, it doesn't really extend the buffer since it does not
use the return value of the extend_alloca macro, which is the location
of the reallocated buffer. Due to this the buffer does not actually
extend itself and hence a subsequent write may overwrite stuff on the
stack.
The second problem is more subtle - the buffer growth on the stack is
discontinuous due to block scope local variables. Combine that with
the fact that unlike realloc, extend_alloca does not copy over old
content and you have a situation where the buffer just has garbage in
the space where it should have had data.
This could have been fixed by adding code to copy over old data
whenever we call extend_alloca, but it seems unnecessarily
complicated. This code is not exactly a performance hotspot (it's
called when there is a cache miss, so factors like network lookup or
file reads will dominate over memory allocation/reallocation), so this
premature optimization is unnecessary.
Thanks Brad Hubbard <bhubbard@redhat.com> for his help with debugging
the problem.

nscd incorrectly returns a success even when the netgroup in question
is not found and adds a positive result in the cache. this patch
fixes this behaviour by adding a negative lookup entry to cache and
returning an error when the netgroup is not found.
|
|
Currently, when a user looks up a netgroup that does not have any
members, nscd goes into an infinite loop trying to find members in the
group. This is because it does not handle cases when getnetgrent
returns an NSS_STATUS_NOTFOUND (which is what it does on empty group).
Fixed to handle this in the same way as NSS_STATUS_RETURN, similar to
what getgrent does by itself.

Fixes unclosed '{' if HAVE_SENDFILE is defined (BZ #15895).
