* lib: use unique ifdefs for testsKarel Zak2017-01-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | Let's use unique TEST_PROGRAM_<NAME> ifdefs to make build system more robust. Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
* lib: provide fallback if mkostemp(3) missingRuediger Meier2016-02-291-1/+30
| | | | | | | It's missing on OSX. CC: Yuriy M. Kaminskiy <yumkam@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ruediger Meier <ruediger.meier@ga-group.nl>
* chsh, chfn, vipw: fix filenames collisionKarel Zak2015-08-241-14/+7Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The utils when compiled WITHOUT libuser then mkostemp()ing "/etc/%s.XXXXXX" where the filename prefix is argv[0] basename. An attacker could repeatedly execute the util with modified argv[0] and after many many attempts mkostemp() may generate suffix which makes sense. The result maybe temporary file with name like rc.status ld.so.preload or krb5.keytab, etc. Note that distros usually use libuser based ch{sh,fn} or stuff from shadow-utils. It's probably very minor security bug. Addresses: CVE-2015-5224 Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
* lib/fileutils: Add new dup_fd_cloexec functionGuillem Jover2015-06-081-0/+30
| | | | | | | | This function duplicates and marks a file descriptor as close-on-exec. Takes care of build and run-time support for the fcntl F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC command, and other errors. Signed-off-by: Guillem Jover <guillem@hadrons.org>

* fileutils: xmkstemp() interface changeDave Reisner2012-06-021-3/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | We can not let the user control where TMPDIR is for this tempfile. This will be where we write the updated passwd file, and must be capable of being moved atomically with rename(2). Therefore, it cannot be on a different device, or setpwnam() and vipw/vigr programs will invariably fail with EXDEV.

* lib/fileutils: add get_fd_tabsize()Karel Zak2012-04-231-0/+24

* fileutils: differentiate xmkstemp and xfmkstempSami Kerola2012-03-181-13/+10Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | Let developer to choose, case by case, what sort of return value is best in her code. The xmkstemp() is for users who want file descriptor as return value of the function, xfmkstemp() will return FILE pointer.
