glibc: patch CVE-2015-7547

Browse source 
The glibc DNS client side resolver is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer
overflow when the getaddrinfo() library function is used. Software using
this function may be exploited with attacker-controlled domain names,
attacker-controlled DNS servers, or through a man-in-the-middle attack.

+ TRYAGAIN, NOTFOUND and UNAVAIL, since they are the only returns
+ that apply (though RETURN and MERGE exist). We make a distinction
+ between TRYAGAIN (recoverable) and TRYAGAIN' (not-recoverable).
+ A recoverable TRYAGAIN is almost always due to buffer size issues
+ and returns ERANGE in errno and the caller is expected to retry
+ with a larger buffer.
+
+ Lastly, you may be tempted to make significant changes to the
+ conditions in this code to bring about symmetry between responses.
+ Please don't change anything without due consideration for
+ expected application behaviour. Some of the synthesized responses
+ aren't very well thought out and sometimes appear to imply that
+ IPv4 responses are always answer 1, and IPv6 responses are always
+ answer 2, but that's not true (see the implemetnation of send_dg
+ and send_vc to see response can arrive in any order, particlarly
+ for UDP). However, we expect it holds roughly enough of the time
+ that this code works, but certainly needs to be fixed to make this
+ a more robust implementation.

+
+ [1] If the first response is a success we return success.
+ This ignores the state of the second answer and in fact
+ incorrectly sets errno and h_errno to that of the second
+ answer. However because the response is a success we ignore
+ *errnop and *h_errnop (though that means you touched errno on
+ success). We are being conservative here and returning the
+ likely IPv4 response in the first answer as a success.
+
+ [2] If the first response is a recoverable TRYAGAIN we return
+ that instead of looking at the second response. The
+ expectation here is that we have failed to get an IPv4 response
+ and should retry both queries.
+
+ [3] If the first response was not a SUCCESS and the second
+ response is not NOTFOUND (had a SUCCESS, need to TRYAGAIN,
+ or failed entirely e.g. TRYAGAIN' and UNAVAIL) then use the
+ result from the second response, otherwise the first responses
+ status is used. Again we have some odd side-effects when the
+ second response is NOTFOUND because we overwrite *errnop and
+ *h_errnop that means that a first answer of NOTFOUND might see
+ its *errnop and *h_errnop values altered. Whether it matters
+ in practice that a first response NOTFOUND has the wrong
+ *errnop and *h_errnop is undecided.
+
+ [4] If the first response is UNAVAIL we return that instead of
+ looking at the second response. The expectation here is that
+ it will have failed similarly e.g. configuration failure.
+
+ [5] Testing this code is complicated by the fact that truncated
+ second response buffers might be returned as SUCCESS if the
+ first answer is a SUCCESS. To fix this we add symmetry to
+ TRYAGAIN with the second response. If the second response
+ is a recoverable error we now return TRYAGIN even if the first
+ response was SUCCESS. */

+ to the nameserver numbered NS from the res_state STATP i.e.
+ EXT(statp).nssocks[ns]. The function supports sending both IPv4 and
+ IPv6 queries at the same serially on the same socket.
+
+ Please note that for TCP there is no way to disable sending both
+ queries, unlike UDP, which honours RES_SNGLKUP and RES_SNGLKUPREOP
+ and sends the queries serially and waits for the result after each
+ sent query. This implemetnation should be corrected to honour these
+ options.
+
+ Please also note that for TCP we send both queries over the same
+ socket one after another. This technically violates best practice
+ since the server is allowed to read the first query, respond, and
+ then close the socket (to service another client). If the server
+ does this, then the remaining second query in the socket data buffer
+ will cause the server to send the client an RST which will arrive
+ asynchronously and the client's OS will likely tear down the socket
+ receive buffer resulting in a potentially short read and lost
+ response data. This will force the client to retry the query again,
+ and this process may repeat until all servers and connection resets
+ are exhausted and then the query will fail. It's not known if this
+ happens with any frequency in real DNS server implementations. This
+ implementation should be corrected to use two sockets by default for
+ parallel queries.
+
+ The query stored in BUF of BUFLEN length is sent first followed by
+ the query stored in BUF2 of BUFLEN2 length. Queries are sent
+ serially on the same socket.
+
+ Answers to the query are stored firstly in *ANSP up to a max of
+ *ANSSIZP bytes. If more than *ANSSIZP bytes are needed and ANSCP
+ is non-NULL (to indicate that modifying the answer buffer is allowed)
+ then malloc is used to allocate a new response buffer and ANSCP and
+ ANSP will both point to the new buffer. If more than *ANSSIZP bytes
+ are needed but ANSCP is NULL, then as much of the response as
+ possible is read into the buffer, but the results will be truncated.
+ When truncation happens because of a small answer buffer the DNS
+ packets header feild TC will bet set to 1, indicating a truncated
+ message and the rest of the socket data will be read and discarded.
+
+ Answers to the query are stored secondly in *ANSP2 up to a max of
+ *ANSSIZP2 bytes, with the actual response length stored in
+ *RESPLEN2. If more than *ANSSIZP bytes are needed and ANSP2
+ is non-NULL (required for a second query) then malloc is used to
+ allocate a new response buffer, *ANSSIZP2 is set to the new buffer
+ size and *ANSP2_MALLOCED is set to 1.
+
+ The ANSP2_MALLOCED argument will eventually be removed as the
+ change in buffer pointer can be used to detect the buffer has
+ changed and that the caller should use free on the new buffer.
+
+ Note that the answers may arrive in any order from the server and
+ therefore the first and second answer buffers may not correspond to
+ the first and second queries.
+
+ It is not supported to call this function with a non-NULL ANSP2
