[Buildroot] [PATCH v2] util-linux: security bump to version 2.31

Carlos Santos casantos at datacom.ind.br
Tue Oct 31 10:47:51 UTC 2017


Fix CVE-2016-2779: runuser in util-linux allows local users to escape to
the parent session via a crafted TIOCSTI ioctl call, which pushes
characters to the terminal's input buffer.

The new experimental "su --pty" feature has been implemented to fix this
issue. The feature is not enabled by default and the new command line
option --pty is necessary.

Add rfkill, a command for enabling and disabling wireless devices. This
implementation is based upon, and backward compatible with, the original
rfkill from Johannes Berg and Marcel Holtmann, currently provided by the
standalone "rfkill" package.

Add uuidparse, a command to analyze and print information about UUID's.

The "reset" script is not part of utill-linux anymore. Add a legacy
config telling the user to use either BusyBox or the ncurses program.

Drop the ncursesw patch, allready applied upstream. AUTORECONF is not
required anymore.

Changes v1->v2:
- Rebased due to parallel modifications in Config.in.legacy and commit
  5868ab5f22300e920474005e3ae4f78e0b210473, which removed
  PKG_VERSION_MINOR.

-Subject: [PATCH] build-sys: support ncursesw without headers in ncursesw/
- directory
-
-Let's check always for alone ncurses.h and term.h if the preferred
-variant with ncursesw/ subdirectory is not available.
-
-The patch also minimize number of HAVE_...NCURSES_H macros in
-config.h. We don't need to check for ncurses.h if ncurses/ncurses.h is
-available.
