CVS commit: src/gnu/dist/gcc/gcc



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   jwise
Date:           Tue Nov 30 01:51:13 UTC 2004

Modified Files:
        src/gnu/dist/gcc/gcc: cppfiles.c
        src/gnu/dist/gcc/gcc/doc: cpp.1 cpp.info cppenv.texi

Log Message:
As discussed on tech-toolchain%netbsd.org@localhost, make cpp refuse to attempt 
to
parse a #include'd file which does not pass S_ISREG() if the environment 
variable
CPP_RESTRICTED is set.

This is primarily intended for use by programs such as calendar(1) which
use cpp to parse untrusted user files -- without this change (and the 
corresponding
change to calendar(1)), any user can cause a denial-of-service for the daily
calendar -a run by #include'ing a named pipe.

Many thanks to christos@netbsd for his help in polishing this.
