  1. 2007-05-24 10:00 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  2. * Fix another integer overflow (Colin Percival)
  3. 2007-03-26 13:58 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  4. * make sure that all of struct magic_set is initialized appropriately
  5. (Brett)
  6. 2007-03-25 17:44 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  7. * reset left bytes in the buffer (Dmitry V. Levin)
  8. * compilation failed with COMPILE_ONLY and ENABLE_CONDITIONALS
  9. (Peter Avalos)
  10. 2007-03-15 10:51 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  11. * fix fortran and nroff reversed tests (Dmitry V. Levin)
  12. * fix exclude option (Dmitry V. Levin)
  13. 2007-02-08 17:30 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  14. * fix integer underflow in file_printf which can lead to
  15. to exploitable heap overflow (Jean-Sebastien Guay-Lero)
  16. 2007-02-05 11:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  17. * make socket/pipe reading more robust
  18. 2007-01-25 16:01 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  19. * Centralize all the tests in file_buffer.
  20. * Add exclude flag.
  21. 2007-01-18 05:29 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
  22. * Move the "type" detection code from parse() into its own table
  23. driven routine. This avoids maintaining multiple lists in
  24. file.h.
  25. * Add an optional conditional field (ust before the type field).
  26. This code is wrapped in "#ifdef ENABLE_CONDITIONALS" as it is
  27. likely to go away.
  28. 2007-01-16 23:24 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
  29. * Fix an initialization bug in check_mem().
  30. 2007-01-16 14:58 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
  31. * Add a "default" type to print a message if nothing previously
  32. matched at that level or since the last default at that
  33. level. This is useful for setting up switch-like statements.
  34. It can also be used to do if/else constructions without a
  35. redundant second test.
  36. * Fix the "x" special case test so that one can test for that
  37. string with "=x".
  38. * Allow "search" to search the entire buffer if the "/N"
  39. search count is missing.
  40. * Make "regex" work! It now starts its search at the
  41. specified offset and takes an (optional) "/N" line count to
  42. specify the search range; otherwise it searches to the end
  43. of the file. The match is now grabbed correctly for format
  44. strings and the offset set to the end of the match.
  45. * Add a "/s" flag to "regex" and "search" to set the offset to
  46. the start of the match. By default the offset is set to the
  47. end of the match, as it is with other tests. This is mostly
  48. useful for "regex".
  49. * Make "search", "string" and "pstring" use the same
  50. file_strncmp() routine so that they support the same flags;
  51. "bestring16" and "lestring16" call the same routine, but
  52. with flags = 0. Also add a "/C" flag (in analogy to "/c")
  53. to ignore the case on uppercase (lowercase) characters in
  54. the test string.
  55. * Strict adherence to C style string escapes. A warnings are
  56. printed when compiling. Note: previously "\a" was
  57. incorrectly translated to 'a' instead of an <alert> (i.e.,
  58. BELL, typically 0x07).
  59. * Make this compile with "-Wall -Wextra" and all the warning
  60. flags used with WARNS=4 in the NetBSD source. Also make it
  61. pass lint.
  62. * Many "cleanups" and hopefully not too many new bugs!
  63. 2007-01-16 14:56 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
  64. * make several more files compile with gcc warnings
  65. on and also make them pass lint.
  66. 2007-01-16 14:54 Anon Ymous <do@not.spam.me>
  67. * fix a puts()/putc() usage goof in file.c
  68. * make file.c compile with gcc warnings and pass lint
  69. 2006-12-11 16:49 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  70. * fix byteswapping issue
  71. * report the number of bytes we tried to
  72. allocate when allocation fails
  73. * add a few missed cases in the strength routine
  74. 2006-12-08 16:32 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  75. * store and print the line number of the magic
  76. entry for debugging.
  77. * if the magic entry did not print anything,
  78. don't treat it as a match
  79. * change the magic strength algorithm to take
  80. into account the relationship op.
  81. * fix a bug in search where we could accidentally
  82. return a match.
  83. * propagate the error return from match to
  84. file_softmagic.
  85. 2006-11-25 13:35 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  86. * Don't store the current offset in the magic
  87. struct, because it needs to be restored and
  88. it was not done properly all the time. Bug
  89. found by: Arkadiusz Miskiewicz
  90. * Fix problem in the '\0' separator; and don't
  91. print it as an additional separator; print
  92. it as the only separator.
  93. 2006-11-17 10:51 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  94. * Added a -0 option to print a '\0' separator

  162. 2005-01-12 00:00 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
  163. * src/ascmagic.c (file_ascmagic): Fix three bugs about text files:
  164. If a CRLF text file happens to have CR at offset HOWMANY - 1
  165. (currently 0xffff), it should not be counted as CR line
  166. terminator.
  167. If a line has length exactly MAXLINELEN, it should not yet be
  168. treated as a ``very long line'', as MAXLINELEN is ``longest sane
  169. line length''.
  170. With CRLF, the line length was not computed correctly, and even
  171. lines of length MAXLINELEN - 1 were treated as ``very long''.
  172. 2004-12-07 14:15 Christos Zoulas <christos@zoulas.com>
  173. * bzip2 needs a lot of input buffer space on some files

  176. the file descriptor to read as much as it wants if we
  177. have access to it. <christos@zoulas.com>
