Description:
* SECURITY UPDATE: out-of-bounds read via a positional field width or
precision in printf/sprintf
- debian/patches/CVE-2023-4156.patch: reject a negative positional index
in format_tree() in builtin.c. The digit run of a `%*N$' specifier is
accumulated into an int, so a sufficiently long N wraps it negative;
the existing guard tested only val >= num_args, letting the negative
value reach the_args[val] and read before the start of the argument
array
- CVE-2023-4156
* SECURITY UPDATE: use-after-free in getline from a two-way pipe
- debian/patches/CVE-2026-40467.patch: stop do_getline_redir() in io.c
from releasing redir_exp immediately after redirect(), since the
two-way-pipe error path still reads redir_exp->stptr/stlen through
is_non_fatal_redirect(). The DEREF is moved to each control-flow path
after the node's last use
- CVE-2026-40467
* SECURITY UPDATE: heap buffer overflow in sub()/gsub() on 32-bit
architectures
- debian/patches/CVE-2026-40468.patch: widen the sofar accumulator in
do_sub() in builtin.c from int to size_t so the running offset into the
replacement buffer cannot overflow while the buffer itself is sized
with size_t arithmetic. The upstream commit's second hunk, widening i
to int64_t in parse_escape() in node.c, is carried verbatim for
fidelity; it is inert here, as that function's octal and hex loops are
bounded at 0777 and 0xFF and it returns int
- CVE-2026-40468
* SECURITY UPDATE: integer overflow in the sub()/gsub() replacement size
computation on 32-bit architectures
- debian/patches/CVE-2026-40469.patch: compute the ampersand expansion in
do_sub() in builtin.c as a uint64_t and fatal out with "replacement
expansion too large" when the result would exceed SIZE_MAX, instead of
wrapping and under-allocating the destination buffer
- CVE-2026-40469
* SECURITY UPDATE: stack buffer overflow in the readdir extension
- debian/patches/CVE-2026-40553.patch: build the path in ftype() in
extension/readdir.c with a bounded snprintf() and reject the entry when
the result would be truncated, replacing the unbounded strcpy()/strcat()
pair that overflowed fname[] for a sufficiently long directory or entry
name
- CVE-2026-40553
