From 1293ba59fbfd430080036ab3bda6941461231c28 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: joey Date: Tue, 30 Nov 1999 08:28:52 +0000 Subject: r321: * dh_suidregister: Fixed a rather esoteric bug: If a file had multiple hard links, and was suid, suidregister detected all the hard links as files that need to be registered. It looped, registering the first link, and then removing its suid bit. This messed up the registration of the other had links, since their permissions were now changed, leading to unpredictable results. The fix is to just not remove suid bits until all files have been registered. --- debian/changelog | 12 ++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+) (limited to 'debian') diff --git a/debian/changelog b/debian/changelog index 7591deb6..8822c154 100644 --- a/debian/changelog +++ b/debian/changelog @@ -1,3 +1,15 @@ +debhelper (2.0.77) unstable; urgency=low + + * dh_suidregister: Fixed a rather esoteric bug: If a file had multiple + hard links, and was suid, suidregister detected all the hard links as + files that need to be registered.
