Fri Jul 19 01:31:06 UTC 2019


rsync includes its own copy of zlib and doesn't recommend linking with
the system version [1].

Import CVE fixes that impact zlib version 1.2.8 [2] that is currently used
by rsync.

+Subject: [PATCH] Remove offset pointer optimization in inftrees.c.
+
+inftrees.c was subtracting an offset from a pointer to an array,
+in order to provide a pointer that allowed indexing starting at
+the offset. This is not compliant with the C standard, for which
+the behavior of a pointer decremented before its allocated memory
+is undefined. Per the recommendation of a security audit of the
+zlib code by Trail of Bits and TrustInSoft, in support of the
+Mozilla Foundation, this tiny optimization was removed, in order
+to avoid the possibility of undefined behavior.

+Subject: [PATCH] Use post-increment only in inffast.c.
+
+An old inffast.c optimization turns out to not be optimal anymore
+with modern compilers, and furthermore was not compliant with the
+C standard, for which decrementing a pointer before its allocated
+memory is undefined. Per the recommendation of a security audit of
+the zlib code by Trail of Bits and TrustInSoft, in support of the
+Mozilla Foundation, this "optimization" was removed, in order to
+avoid the possibility of undefined behavior.

+Subject: [PATCH] Avoid pre-decrement of pointer in big-endian CRC calculation.
+
+There was a small optimization for PowerPCs to pre-increment a
+pointer when accessing a word, instead of post-incrementing. This
+required prefacing the loop with a decrement of the pointer,
+possibly pointing before the object passed. This is not compliant
+with the C standard, for which decrementing a pointer before its
+allocated memory is undefined. When tested on a modern PowerPC
+with a modern compiler, the optimization no longer has any effect.
+Due to all that, and per the recommendation of a security audit of
+the zlib code by Trail of Bits and TrustInSoft, in support of the
+Mozilla Foundation, this "optimization" was removed, in order to
+avoid the possibility of undefined behavior.
