* Documentation Fixes
[#19596]: -printf %b should be compared with %s/512, not %s/1024.
*
* Bug Fixes
[#21568]: When building from CVS in 4.2.x, we now check gnulib out using git
instead of CVS. This fixes Savannah bug 21568, the problem being that
git-cvspserevr does not currently support -D, and the ond CVS server
for gnulib has been frozen.
[#20970]: Trailing slash on directory arguments breaks -name. \"find
foo/ -name foo\" now correctly matches foo and printf foo/. See POSIX
interp http://www.opengroup.org/austin/interps/uploads/40/14959/AI-186.txt
[#20751]: Avoid memory corruption in find -ls that has been present
since 4.2.28.
[#20662]: Avoid memory leak in find -name and other places affected by
gnulib dirname module. The leak had been present since 4.2.28.
[#20310]: configure uses hosts\'s support status for \"sort -z\" when
generating the updatedb script for use on the target. This is not a
reliable strategy when cross-compiling, so assume no support for -z in
that situation.
[#20273]: When xargs is successful without consuming all of stdin (for
example, with the -E option), and stdin is seekable, xargs now
correctly restores the file position, even on platforms where exit()
does not follow the POSIX rules of doing likewise. Likewise for find
(for example, with the -ok action).
[#19660]: Fix compilation failure on Cygwin.
[#15384]: Find misbehaves when parent directory is not readable.
*
* Enhancements
[#20688]: The warning printed by -name or -iname when the pattern to
match contains a slash can now be silenced by -nowarn. This warning
was originally introduced unconditionally in 4.2.21.
Thu Jul 5 14:00:00 2007 schwabAATTsuse.de
- Drop clean core script.
Sun Jun 3 14:00:00 2007 schwabAATTsuse.de
- Update to findutils 4.2.31.
*
* Security Fixes
[#20014]: Findutils-4.2.31 includes a patch for a potential security
problem in locate. When locate read an old-format database, it read
file names into a fixed-length buffer allocated on the heap without
checking for overflow. Although overflowing a heap buffer if often
somewhat safer than overflowing a buffer on the stack, this bug still
has potential security implications.
All previous releases of findutils are affected by this bug. It has
been assigned CVE number CVE-2007-2452.
*
* Documentation Fixes
[#19596]: Corrected the documentation for \"find -printf %b\".
[#19483]: updatedb manpage has inconsistent highlighting for --help
option.
[#19155]: Fixed typo in the output of \"locate --help\".
*
* Other Bug Fixes
[#19658]: When cross-compiling, \"make clean\" no longer deletes the
generated file doc/regexprops.texi, because there is no way to
regenerate it.
[#19484]: Decompressed data is wrong in locate if the first filename
indexed by updatedb starts with a space (instead of a slash).
*
* Other Changes
Findutils has switched to a new way of building the code from gnulib.
There should be no functional difference; the change should not be
visible to those using the findutils binaries, except for changes to
the output of \"find --version\", which should now show the version of
Gnulib which was used.
Wed Feb 28 13:00:00 2007 schwabAATTsuse.de
- Update to findutils 4.2.30.
*
* Bug Fixes
Savannah Bug #13252: The test suite now works on platforms where
DejaGnu is based on Tcl 8.3 (previously, 8.4 or later was required).
Savannah Bug bug #17861: this version should build on Solaris and HPUX
once again.
Savannah Bug #18433: findutils now compiles if \"--enable-debug\" was
specified as an option to configure. Previously this caused a
compilation failure in find.
*
* Documentation Fixes
Some typos in the Texinfo manual and one typo in in the usage message
for xargs have been fixed.
Mon Feb 12 13:00:00 2007 schwabAATTsuse.de
- Fix memleaks.
Mon Dec 4 13:00:00 2006 schwabAATTsuse.de
- Update to findutils 4.2.29.
*
* Documentation Fixes
The global effect of options (other than -daystart and -follow) is now
explained more clearly in the manual page. Savannah bug #15360.
*
* Bug Fixes
[#17782]: find -execdir now correctly puts the prefix \"./\" before the
expansion of \"{}\" rather than at the start of the argument it appears
in. Please note that if you use the -exec or -execdir actions with a
shell, then you may be vulnerable to shell code injection attacks, so
don\'t do that. It\'s not a security defect in find - you should not be
passing untrusted data (such as file names chosen by other people) to
the shell.
[#17477]: find -printf \'%\' (that is, where the format has a trailing %)
now generates an error message.
Mon Nov 20 13:00:00 2006 schwabAATTsuse.de
- cron.daily.clean_core: robustify even more.
Mon Oct 16 14:00:00 2006 schwabAATTsuse.de
- cron.daily.clean_core: robustify to avoid matching non-cores [#210987].
Mon Aug 7 14:00:00 2006 schwabAATTsuse.de
- Update to findutils 4.2.28.
*
* Bug Fixes
Savannah bug #15800: If find finds more subdirectories within a parent
directory than it previously expected to based on the link count of
the parent, the resulting error message now gives the correct
directory name (previously an error message was issued but it
specified the wrong directory).
Savannah bug #16738: \"find .... -exec ... {} +\" now works if you have
a large environment and many files must be passed to the -exec
action. The same problem affected the -execdir action, though since
the number of files in a given directory will normally be smaller, the
problem was worse for -exec.
Savannah bug #16579: Updatedb now works if it is running as a user
whose login shell is not actually a shell.
