commit 24c031b1a28658c921a746f4d58f3ca5e9994108 Author: Nick Mathewson <nickm@torproject.org> Date: Mon Mar 9 15:09:49 2015 -0400 Don't use checked strl{cat,cpy} on OSX. There is a bug in the overlap-checking in strlcat that can crash Tor servers. Fixes bug 15205; this is an OSX bug, not a Tor bug. --- changes/bug15205 | 5 +++++ src/common/compat.h | 12 ++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 17 insertions(+) diff --git a/changes/bug15205 b/changes/bug15205 new file mode 100644 index 0000000..0cb9f3f --- /dev/null +++ b/changes/bug15205 @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ + o Major bugfixes (crash, OSX, security): + - Fix a remote denial-of-service opportunity caused by a bug + in OSX's _strlcat_chk() function.
