Levin) 225 226 * compilation failed with COMPILE_ONLY and ENABLE_CONDITIONALS 227 (Peter Avalos) 228 2292007-03-15 10:51 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 230 231 * fix fortran and nroff reversed tests (Dmitry V. Levin) 232 233 * fix exclude option (Dmitry V. Levin) 234 2352007-02-08 17:30 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 236 237 * fix integer underflow in file_printf which can lead to 238 to exploitable heap overflow (Jean-Sebastien Guay-Lero) 239 2402007-02-05 11:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 241 242 * make socket/pipe reading more robust 243 2442007-01-25 16:01 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 245 246 * Centralize all the tests in file_buffer. 247 248 * Add exclude flag. 249 2502007-01-18 05:29 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me> 251 252 * Move the "type" detection code from parse() into its own table 253 driven routine. This avoids maintaining multiple lists in 254 file.h. 255 256 * Add an optional conditional field (ust before the type field). 257 This code is wrapped in "#ifdef ENABLE_CONDITIONALS" as it is 258 likely to go away. 259 2602007-01-16 23:24 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me> 261 262 * Fix an initialization bug in check_mem(). 263 2642007-01-16 14:58 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me> 265 266 * Add a "default" type to print a message if nothing previously 267 matched at that level or since the last default at that 268 level. This is useful for setting up switch-like statements. 269 It can also be used to do if/else constructions without a 270 redundant second test. 271 272 * Fix the "x" special case test so that one can test for that 273 string with "=x". 274 275 * Allow "search" to search the entire buffer if the "/N" 276 search count is missing. 277 278 * Make "regex" work! It now starts its search at the 279 specified offset and takes an (optional) "/N" line count to 280 specify the search range; otherwise it searches to the end 281 of the file. The match is now grabbed correctly for format 282 strings and the offset set to the end of the match. 283 284 * Add a "/s" flag to "regex" and "search" to set the offset to 285 the start of the match. By default the offset is set to the 286 end of the match, as it is with other tests. This is mostly 287 useful for "regex". 288 289 * Make "search", "string" and "pstring" use the same 290 file_strncmp() routine so that they support the same flags; 291 "bestring16" and "lestring16" call the same routine, but 292 with flags = 0. Also add a "/C" flag (in analogy to "/c") 293 to ignore the case on uppercase (lowercase) characters in 294 the test string. 295 296 * Strict adherence to C style string escapes. A warnings are 297 printed when compiling. Note: previously "\a" was 298 incorrectly translated to 'a' instead of an <alert> (i.e., 299 BELL, typically 0x07). 300 301 * Make this compile with "-Wall -Wextra" and all the warning 302 flags used with WARNS=4 in the NetBSD source. Also make it 303 pass lint. 304 305 * Many "cleanups" and hopefully not too many new bugs! 306 3072007-01-16 14:56 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me> 308 309 * make several more files compile with gcc warnings 310 on and also make them pass lint. 311 3122007-01-16 14:54 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me> 313 314 * fix a puts()/putc() usage goof in file.c 315 316 * make file.c compile with gcc warnings and pass lint 317 3182006-12-11 16:49 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 319 320 * fix byteswapping issue 321 322 * report the number of bytes we tried to 323 allocate when allocation fails 324 325 * add a few missed cases in the strength routine 326 3272006-12-08 16:32 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 328 329 * store and print the line number of the magic 330 entry for debugging. 331 332 * if the magic entry did not print anything, 333 don't treat it as a match 334 335 * change the magic strength algorithm to take 336 into account the relationship op. 337 338 * fix a bug in search where we could accidentally 339 return a match. 340 341 * propagate the error return from match to 342 file_softmagic. 343 3442006-11-25 13:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 345 346 * Don't store the current offset in the magic 347 struct, because it needs to be restored and 348 it was not done properly all the time. Bug 349 found by: Arkadiusz Miskiewicz 350 351 * Fix problem in the '\0' separator; and don't 352 print it as an additional separator; print 353 it as the only separator. 354 3552006-11-17 10:51 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 356 357 * Added a -0 option to print a '\0' separator 358 Etienne Buira <etienne.buira@free.fr> 359 3602006-10-31 15:14 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 361 362 * Check offset before copying (Mike Frysinger) 363 364 * merge duplicated code 365 366 * add quad date support 367 368 * make sure that we nul terminate desc (Ryoji Kanai) 369 370 * don't process elf notes multiple times 371 372 * allow -z to report empty compressed files 373 374 * use calloc to initialize the ascii buffers (Jos van den Oever) 375 3762006-06-08 11:11 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 377 378 * QNX fixes (Mike Gorchak) 379 380 * Add quad support. 381 382 * FIFO checks (Dr. Werner Fink) 383 384 * Linux ELF fixes (Dr. Werner Fink) 385 386 * Magic format checks (Dr. Werner Fink) 387 388 * Magic format function improvent (Karl Chen) 389 3902006-05-03 11:11 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 391 392 * Pick up some elf changes and some constant fixes from SUSE 393 394 * Identify gnu tar vs. posix tar 395 396 * When keep going, don't print spurious newlines (Radek Vok�l) 397 3982006-04-01 12:02 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 399 400 * Use calloc instead of malloc (Mike Frysinger) 401 402 * Fix configure script to detect wctypes.h (Mike Frysinger) 403 4042006-03-02 16:06 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 405 406 * Print empty if the file is (Mike Frysinger) 407 408 * Don't try to read past the end of the buffer (Mike Frysinger) 409 410 * Sort magic entries by strength [experimental] 411 4122005-11-29 13:26 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 413 414 * Use iswprint() to convert the output string. 415 (Bastien Nocera) 416 4172005-10-31 8:54 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 418 419 * Fix regression where the core info was not completely processed 420 (Radek Vok�l) 421 4222005-10-20 11:15 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 423 424 * Middle Endian magic (Diomidis Spinellis) 425 4262005-10-17 11:15 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 427 428 * Open with O_BINARY for CYGWIN (Corinna Vinschen) 429 430 * Don't close stdin (Arkadiusz Miskiewicz) 431 432 * Look for note sections in non executables. 433 4342005-09-20 13:33 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 435 436 * Don't print SVR4 Style in core files multiple times 437 (Radek Vok�l) 438 4392005-08-27 04:09 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 440 441 * Cygwin changes Corinna Vinschen 442 4432005-08-18 09:53 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 444 445 * Remove erroreous mention of /etc/magic in the file man page 446 This is gentoo bug 101639.

This makes file -z 499 fail on some bz2 files. Fix it by giving it a copy of 500 the file descriptor to read as much as it wants if we 501 have access to it. <christos@astron.com> 502 5032004-11-24 12:39 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 504 505 * Stack smash fix, and ELF more conservative reading. 506 Jakub Bogusz <qboosh@pld-linux.org> 507 5082004-11-20 18:50 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 509 510 * New FreeBSD version parsing code: 511 Jon Noack <noackjr@alumni.rice.edu> 512 513 * Hackish support for ucs16 strings <christos@astron.com> 514 5152004-11-13 03:07 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 516 517 * print the file name and line number in syntax errors. 518 5192004 10-12 10:50 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 520 521 * Fix stack overwriting on 0 length strings: Tim Waugh 522 <twaugh@redhat.com> Ned Ludd <solar@gentoo.org> 523 5242004-09-27 11:30 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 525 526 * Remove 3rd and 4th copyright clause; approved by Ian Darwin. 527 528 * Fix small memory leaks; caught by: Tamas Sarlos 529 <stamas@csillag.ilab.sztaki.hu> 530 5312004-07-24 16:33 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 532 533 * magic.mime update Danny Milosavljevic <danny.milo@gmx.net> 534 535 * FreeBSD version update Oliver Eikemeier <eikemeier@fillmore-labs.com> 536 537 * utime/utimes detection Ian Lance Taylor <ian@wasabisystems.com> 538 539 * errors reading elf magic Jakub Bogusz <qboosh@pld-linux.org> 540 5412004-04-12 10:55 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 542 543 * make sure that magic formats match magic types during compilation 544 545 * fix broken sgi magic file 546 5472004-04-06 20:36 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 548 549 * detect present of mbstate_t Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@hungry.com> 550 551 * magic fixes 552 5532004-03-22 15:25 Christos Zoulas <christos@astron.com> 554 555 * Lots of mime fixes 556 (Joerg Ostertag) <ostertag@rechengilde.de> 557 558 * FreeBSD ELF version handling 559 (Edwin Groothuis) <edwin@mavetju.org> 560 561 * correct cleanup in all cases; don't just close the file. 562 (Christos Zoulas) <christos@astron.com> 563 564 * add gettext message catalogue support 565 (Michael Piefel) <piefel@debian.org> 566 567 * better printout for unreadable files 568 (Michael Piefel) <piefel@debian.org> 569 570 * compensate for missing MAXPATHLEN 571 (Michael Piefel) <piefel@debian.org> 572 573 * add wide character string length computation 574 (Michael Piefel) <piefel@debian.org> 575 576 * Avoid infinite loops caused by bad elf alignments 577 or name and description note sizes.
