Package: BusyBox Version: 1.0.0-pre10 Passing the -q <integer> option to inetd causes it to dereference an invalid pointer (optarg). The attached patch provides a fix to this problem. Robin
2004-06-22Patch from Bastian Blank:Eric Andersen
The updated patch adds a config option to explicitely enable 64 bit arithmetic. Also it removes the arith prototype from libbb.h as it is not used outside of ash. Bastian this patch has been slightly modified by Erik for cleanliness.

Yes, I know busybox is in feature freeze. If this two-liner is too much that's fine, but it's handy. This patch allows busybox mount to support "-o move" just like it supports "-o bind", which is the equivalent of util-linux "mount --move". Usage is: mount -o move /mnt/point/1 /mnt/point/2 where /mnt/point/1 is an already mounted filesystem; it will be moved to /mnt/point/2.

Here is a patch that adds egrep -L support (the opposite of egrep -l). I realize this is probably too late for 1.0. But I offer it for your future consideration. egrep -L is used in some networking startup scripts I inherited. -Rick

add sed -r support. I bumped into a couple of things that want to use extended regular expressions in sed, and it really isn't that hard to add. Can't say I've extensively tested it, but it's small and isn't going to break anything that doesn't use it, so... Rob

Hi, I just re-reviewed the patch I just sent...and it needed to be BUFSIZ-3 in dos2unix.c . tempFn is BUFSIZ so the last addressable spot it BUFSIZ-1. The loop increments by 2. That's why it should be BUFSIZ-3. Best Regards, Steve Grubb

Hello, I found and patched 2 more bugs. The first is a misplaced semi-colon. The second one is a buffer overflow. I doubt the buffer overflow is triggered in real life. But you never know what those wily hackers are up to. Thanks, Steve Grubb

Hello, Last November a bug was found in iproute. CAN-2003-0856 has more information. Basically, netlink packets can come from any user. If a program performs action based on netlink packets, they must be examined to make sure they came from the place they are expected (the kernel). Attached is a patch against pre8. Please apply this before releasing 1.00 final. All users of busy box may be vulnerable to local attacks without it. Best Regards, Steve Grubb

Hi, the following output is from BusyBox 1.0.0-pre10: ~ # ip link help ip: Command "help" is unknown, try "ip link help". tk This patch fixes it by removing the advertisements for the "ip blah help" stuff that is not implemented.

2004-04-21This sed patch can only be described as "duh". Stat the source file, chmodEric Andersen
the _destination_ file. (Ah hah! That works _much_ better...) I implemented the behavior, I just forgot to test this corner of it. My fault, sorry... No, gnu sed -i doesn't preverve ownership information. I checked. Permissions, yes, ownership info, no. Rob
2004-04-21So I'm building a linux from scratch system, using a working script to do thisEric Andersen
that the _only_ change to is that gnu sed has been replaced with busybox sed. And ncurses' install phase hangs. I trace it down, and it's trying to run gawk. (Insert obligatory doubletake, but this is FSF code we're talking about, so...) It turns out gawk shells out to sed, ala "sed -f /tmp/blah file.h". The /tmp/blah file is basically empty (it contains one character, a newline). So basically, gawk is using sed as "cat". With gnu sed, it works like cat, anyway. With busybox sed, it tests if its command list is empty after parsing the command line, and if the list is empty it takes the first file argument as a sed command string, and if that leaves the file list empty it tries to read the data to operate on from stdin. (Hence the hang, since nothing's coming in on stdin...) It _should_ be testing whether there were any instances of -f or -e, not whether it actually got any commands. Using sed as cat may be kind of stupid, but it's valid and gawk relies on this behavior. Here's a patch to fix it, turning a couple of ints into chars in hopes of saving a bit of the space this adds. Comments? Rob
