8.6.10/8.6.10 95/02/10
SECURITY: Diagnose bogus values to some command line flags that
could allow trash to get into headers and qf files.
Validate the name of the user returned by the IDENT protocol.
Some systems that really dislike IDENT send intentionally
bogus information. Problem pointed out by Michael Bushnell
of the Free Software Foundation. Has some security
implications.
Fix a problem causing error messages about DNS problems when
the host name contained a percent sign to act oddly
because it was passed as a printf-style format string.
In some cases this could cause core dumps.
Avoid possible buffer overrun in returntosender() if error
message is quite ling. From Fletcher Mattox of the
University of Texas.
Fix a problem that would silently drop "too many hops" error
messages if and only if you were sending to an alias.
From Jon Giltner of the University of Colorado and
Dan Harton of Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
Fix a bug that caused core dumps on some systems if -d11.2 was
set and e->e_message was null. Fix from Bruce Nagel of
Data General.
Fix problem that can still cause df files to be left around
after "hop count exceeded" messages. Fix from Andrew
Chang and Shau-Ping Lo of SunSoft.
Fix a problem that can cause buffer overflows on very long
user names (as might occur if you piped to a program
with a lot of arguments).
Avoid returning an error and re-queueing if the host signature
is null; this can occur on addresses like ``user@.''.
Problem noted by Wesley Craig and the University of
Michigan.
Avoid possible calls to malloc(0) if MCI caching is turned
off. Bug fix from Pierre David of the Laboratoire
Parallelisme, Reseaux, Systemes et Modelisation (PRiSM),
Universite de Versailles - St Quentin, and Jacky
Thibault.
Make a local copy of the line being sent via senttolist() -- in
some cases, buffers could get trashed by map lookups
causing it to do unexpected things. This also simplifies
some of the map code.
8.6.9/8.6.9 94/04/19
Do all mail delivery completely disconnected from any terminal.
This provides consistency with daemon delivery and
