Changelog for gzip-1.13-1.50.x86_64.rpm :

* Tue Oct 24 2023 sarah.krieschAATTopensuse.org- Fix s390x build with \'gcc -Dalignas=_Alignas\' bug#66709
* Wed Aug 30 2023 danilo.spinellaAATTsuse.com- Update to 1.13:
* zless now diagnoses gzip failures, if using less 623 or later.
* When SIGPIPE is ignored, gzip now exits with status 2 (warning) instead of status 1 (error) when writing to a broken pipe. This is more useful with programs like \'less\' that treat gzip exit status 2 as a non-failure.
* \'gzip -d\' no longer fails to report invalid compressed data that uses a dictionary distance outside the input window. [bug present since the beginning]
* Port to C23, which does not allow K&R-style function definitions with parameters, and which does not define __alignas_is_defined.- Refreshed manpage-no-date.patch
* Wed Aug 16 2023 dimstarAATTopensuse.org- export CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/sh before running configure: results in the shell script (zcat/zgrep/…) to receive a /bin/sh shebang instead of requiring bash (the local shell used to build).- Use for i in $(seq 1 9) instead of bashism for in in {1..9}, and drop buildshell definition to require bash.
* Tue Dec 27 2022 lnusselAATTsuse.com- Replace transitional %usrmerged macro with regular version check (boo#1206798)
* Wed Apr 27 2022 dimstarAATTopensuse.org- Rename xz_lzma.patch xz_lzma_zstd.patch and expand the patch to supprt zstd compression (boo#1198922).
* Sat Apr 09 2022 dmuellerAATTsuse.com- update to 1.12 (CVE-2022-1271,bsc#1198062):
* \'gzip -l\' no longer misreports file lengths 4 GiB and larger. Previously, \'gzip -l\' output the 32-bit value stored in the gzip header even though that is the uncompressed length modulo 2
*
*32. Now, \'gzip -l\' calculates the uncompressed length by decompressing the data and counting the resulting bytes. Although this can take much more time, nowadays the correctness pros seem to outweigh the performance cons.
* \'zless\' is no longer installed on platforms lacking \'less\'.
* zgrep applied to a crafted file name with two or more newlines can no longer overwrite an arbitrary, attacker-selected file. [bug introduced in gzip-1.3.10]
* zgrep now names input file on error instead of mislabeling it as \"(standard input)\", if grep supports the GNU -H and --label options.
* \'zdiff -C 5\' no longer misbehaves by treating \'5\' as a file name.
* Configure-time options like --program-prefix now work.- refresh zdiff.diff, zgrep.diff, zmore.diff
* Sun Jan 30 2022 dmuellerAATTsuse.com- add conflicts/provides for alternative(gzip)- modernize spec file
* Thu Sep 09 2021 danilo.spinellaAATTsuse.com- Update to 1.11:
* Performance improvements
* Added hardware acceleration for IBM Z- Refresh patches:
* manpage-no-date.patch
* xz_lzma.patch- Remove upstreamed patches:
* gzip-1.10-fix-DFLTCC-segfault.patch
* gzip-1.10-fix_count_of_lines_to_skip.patch
* gzip-1.10-ibm_dfltcc_support.patch
* Wed Jun 23 2021 fbuiAATTsuse.com- Avoid text relocation on i386 (bsc#1143125) Text relocation doesn\'t cope well with some security hardening which consists in prohibiting attempts to change memory mappings to become executable. Hence disable the use of assembler code and get rid of text relocations especially since the assembler code is slower than the code generated by gcc according to Fedora. According to Debian this also fixes gzip generating different results on ia64.
* Tue Apr 13 2021 pgajdosAATTsuse.com- fix DFLTCC segfault [bsc#1177047]- added patches fix https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gzip.git/commit/?id=be0a534ba2b6e77da289de8da79e70843b1028cc + gzip-1.10-fix-DFLTCC-segfault.patch

* Wed Sep 02 2020 kstreitovaAATTsuse.com- Enable DFLTCC compression for s390x for levels 1-6 (i. e. to make it used by default) by adding -DDFLTCC_LEVEL_MASK=0x7e to CLFAGS. [jsc#SLE-13775]
* Tue Aug 27 2019 kstreitovaAATTsuse.com- refresh gzip-1.10-ibm_dfltcc_support.patch to fix three data corruption issues [bsc#1145276] [jsc#SLE-5818] [jsc#SLE-8914]
* Thu Jun 06 2019 kstreitovaAATTsuse.com- add gzip-1.10-ibm_dfltcc_support.patch [jsc#SLE-5818] [jsc#SLE-8914]
* it adds support for DFLTCC (hardware-accelerated deflation) for s390x arch
* enable it via \"--enable-dfltcc\" option
* Sun Dec 30 2018 astiegerAATTsuse.com- gzip 1.10:
* Compressed gzip output no longer contains the current time as a timestamp when the input is not a regular file. Instead, the output contains a null (zero) timestamp. This makes gzip\'s behavior more reproducible when used as part of a pipeline.
* A use of uninitialized memory on some malformed inputs has been fixed.
* A few theoretical race conditions in signal handers have been fixed.- drop upstreamed patches:

* Sun Sep 19 2010 vuntzAATTopensuse.org- Update to version 1.4: + gzip -d could segfault and/or clobber the stack, possibly leading to arbitrary code execution. This affects x86_64 but not 32-bit systems. This fixes CVE-2010-0001. See also rh#554418. + gzip -d would fail with a CRC error for some valid inputs. So far, the only valid input known to exhibit this failure was compressed \"from FAT filesystem (MS-DOS, OS/2, NT)\". In addition, to trigger the failure, your memcpy implementation must copy in the \"reverse\" order.- Drop gzip-CVE-2010-0001.diff: fixed upstream.- Remove AutoReqProv: it\'s default now.- Use %configure, %makeinstall, and %{_bindir}.- Update zdiff.diff: some of the patch is upstream now. It\'s unclear to me if the rest is still needed :/ So leaving it.- Rebase zgrep.diff.
* Mon Jun 28 2010 jengelhAATTmedozas.de- use %_smp_mflags
* Tue Jan 19 2010 msebenAATTnovell.com- updated to 1.3.13 - gzip interprets an argument of \"-\" as indicating stdin, but when \"-\" is not the first name on the command line, it doesn\'t work. - remove useless if-before-free tests - remove useless casts to avoid \"make syntax-check\" failures - avoid spurious warnings from clang - avoid a leak on a error path - don\'t misinterpret a failing test as successful - avoid creating an undersized buffer for the hufts table A malformed input file can cause gzip to crash with a segmentation violation or hang in an endless loop. - avoid silent data loss e.g., on NFS, due to unchecked close of stdout - build require automake-1.11 and produce xz-compressed tarballs, too- deprecated futimens.diff and CVE-2009-2624.diff
* Thu Jan 14 2010 msebenAATTnovell.com- added gzip-CVE-2009-2624.diff and gzip-CVE-2010-0001.diff : fix possible denial of service and arbitrary code execution

* Tue Mar 27 2007 dmuellerAATTsuse.de- reenable profile feedback- remove hardcoded -mcpu=pentiumpro for x86
* Tue Feb 06 2007 schwabAATTsuse.de- Update to gzip 1.3.11.
* As per the GNU coding standards, the behavior of gzip and its companion executables no longer depend on the name used to invoke them. For example, \'gzip\' and \'gunzip\' are no longer hard links; instead, \'gunzip\' is now a small program that invokes \'gzip -d\'.
* zdiff now checks for subsidiary gzip failures, and works around bugs in IRIX 6 sh, Tru64 4.0F ksh, and Solaris 8 bash.
* Mon Jan 08 2007 schwabAATTsuse.de- Update to gzip 1.3.10.
* gzip -c and zcat now work on special files, files with special mode bits, and files with multiple hard links.
* gzip -q now exits with status 2 (not 1) when SIGPIPE is received.
* zcmp and zdiff did not work in the usual case, due to a typo.
* zgrep has many bugs fixed with argument handling, special characters, and exit status.
* zless no longer mishandles $%=~ in file names.
* Fri Dec 15 2006 schwabAATTsuse.de- Update to gzip 1.3.9.
* No major changes; only porting fixes.
* Tue Dec 12 2006 schwabAATTsuse.de- Update to gzip 1.3.8.
* Fix some gzip problems: - A security fix from Debian 1.3.5-5 was inadvertently omitted. - The assembler is now invoked with --noexecstack if supported, so that gzip can better resist stack-smashing attacks.
* Thu Dec 07 2006 schwabAATTsuse.de- Update to gzip 1.3.7.
* Fix some gzip problems: - Refuse to compress setuid or setgid files, or files with the sticky bit. - Fix more race conditions in setting file permissions and owner, removing output files, following symbolic links, and dealing with special files. - Remove most of the code working around ENAMETOOLONG deficiencies. Systems with those deficiencies are long-dead, and the workarounds had race conditions on modern hosts. - Catch CPU time and file size limit signals, too. - Check for read errors when closing files. - Fix a core dump caused by a stray abort mistakenly introduced in 1.3.6.
* Fix some gzexe problems: - Improve resistance to denial-of-service attacks. - Fix some quoting and escaping bugs. - Do not assume /tmp is sticky (though it should be!). - Do not assume the working directory can be written. - Rely on PATH in the generated executable, as the man page says. - Don\'t assume IFS is sane. - Exit with signal\'s status, if signaled.
* Mon Dec 04 2006 schwabAATTsuse.de- Update to gzip 1.3.6.
* Fix some race conditions in setting file time stamps, permissions, and owner.
* Fix some race conditions in signal handling.
* When gzip exits due to a signal, it exits with the signal\'s status, not 1.
* gzip now restores file time stamps to the resolution supported by the time-setting primitives of the operating system, typically 1 microsecond. Formerly it restored them only to the nearest second.
* gzip -r no longer attempts to reset the last-access times of directories it reads, as this messes up when other processes are reading the directories.
* The options --version and --help now work on all gzip-installed executables, and now use a format similar to other GNU programs.
* The manual is now distributed under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License without invariant sections or cover texts.
* Port to current versions of Autoconf, Automake, and Gnulib.
