libtar (1.2.20-5) unstable; urgency=low

  * oldgnu_prefix.patch: Detect old-style GNU headers correctly (Closes:

    #763119). Those appear in incremental archives and use the bytes that

    the new-style headers use for the prefix field for other fields.

    Thanks to Steinar H. Gunderson.

  * testsuite.patch: Add a simple test (Closes: #737258).

  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.7.

libtar (1.2.20-4) unstable; urgency=high

  * no_maxpathlen.patch: Half of the part of the patch modifying

    compat/dirname.c was missing, causing libtar's dirname to always

    return NULL (except in special circumstances). Actually make it work

    (Closes: #745352). (The reason that libtar doesn't use libc's

    dirname() and basename() on some or most platforms is that the code

    doesn't work with destructive versions of these functions).

libtar (1.2.20-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * no_maxpathlen.patch: Fix two grave bugs in the patch. First,

    th_get_pathname would only allocate as much memory as was needed for

    the first filename encountered, causing heap corruption when/if

    encountering longer filenames later. Second, two variables were mixed

    up in tar_append_tree(). Also, fix a potential memory leak and trim

    the patch a bit.

  * [SECURITY] CVE-2013-4420.patch: When the prefix field is in use, the

    safer_name_suffix() function should certainly be applied to the

    combination of it and the name field, not just on the name field.

  * th_get_size-unsigned-int.patch: Make the th_get_size() macro cast the

    result from oct_to_int() to unsigned int. This is the right fix for

    bug #725938 on 64-bit systems, where a specially crafted tar file

    would not cause an integer overflow, but a memory allocation of almost

    16 exbibytes, which would certainly fail outright without harm.

libtar (1.2.20-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * no_static_buffers.patch: avoid using a static buffer in

    th_get_pathname(). Taken from upstream. Needed for no_maxpathlen.patch.

  * no_maxpathlen.patch: Fix FTBFS on Hurd by dynamically allocating path

    names (Closes: #657116). Thanks to Svante Signell and Petter

    Reinholdtsen.

  * [SECURITY] CVE-2013-4420.patch: Strip out leading slashes and any

    pathname prefix containing ".." components (Closes: #731860). This is

    done in th_get_pathname() (as well as to symlink targets when

    extracting symlinks), not merely when extracting files, which means

    applications calling that function will not see the stored

    filename. There is no way to disable this behaviour, but it can be

    expected that one will be provided when the issue is solved upstream.

  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.5.

libtar (1.2.20-1) unstable; urgency=high

    overflow (Closes: #725938).

  * New upstream release.

 -- Magnus Holmgren <holmgren@debian.org>  Sun, 05 May 2013 17:59:29 +0200

libtar (1.2.16-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream: Chris Frey has stepped up with the consent of the

    original author, Mark Roth, and published an "official unofficial" git

    repo at http://repo.or.cz/w/libtar.git, which I will use for the time

    being.

  * Updated debian/watch to look for tags and corresponding snapshot

    tarballs at above URL.

  * All patches have been incorporated or (in the case of

    autoreconf.patch) made obsolete upstream.

  * debian/rules: Add build-indep and build-arch targets.

  * Updated debian/copyright.

  * Use dpkg-buildflags to set CFLAGS et al.

  * debian/control: Add VCS fields; bump Standards-Version to 3.9.3.

 -- Magnus Holmgren <holmgren@debian.org>  Sat, 23 Jun 2012 01:03:41 +0200

libtar (1.2.11-8) unstable; urgency=low

  * libtool.patch: Set SHELL to the configured shell in those Makefile.in

    where libtool is used; otherwise libtool fails when /bin/sh is dash

    but bash is expected (Closes: #621935).

  * man_hyphen_minus.patch (new): Escape hyphens that should be minus

    signs in man pages.

  * Rename libtar as libtar0 to follow policy.

 -- Magnus Holmgren <holmgren@debian.org>  Sun, 24 Apr 2011 21:11:52 +0200

libtar (1.2.11-7) unstable; urgency=low

  * New maintainer (Closes: #526618).

  * Change source format to 3.0 (quilt), clean up Debian diff and split

    into several patches:

    * libtool.patch: Using libtool to build dynamic library;

    * autoreconf.patch: Changes needed to call autoreconf (bug 511741);

    * memleak.patch: Fix memory leaks;

    * bad_ptrtoint.patch: Document stupidity of tartype_t in libtar.c

      (bug 309945).

  * Increase Debhelper compat level to 7.

  * Use dh_autoreconf to avoid having to keep track of files to clean.

  * memleak2.patch (new): Applied instead of memleak.patch. Fix memory

    leak by making th_get_pathname() return a pointer to a static buffer

    instead of a pointer to a copy of a local buffer (LP: #41804).

  * Add homepage field and watch file (in case there is ever a new

    upstream release).

  * Upgrade to Standards-Version 3.9.1.
