change some g_strconcat's to g_build_filename's to address #118040. still
Thu Jul 24 14:58:23 2003 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com>
* daemon/gdm.c, daemon/slave.c, daemon/auth.c: change some
g_strconcat's to g_build_filename's to address #118040.
still more need to be converted
* gdm.spec.in, daemon/gdm.h, config/gdm.conf.in, config/Makefile.am,
configure.in: By default use logdir of /var/log/gdm just
like redhat does it
* daemon/gdm.c: check logdir to exist and if not set it to
ServAuthDir
* gdm.spec.in, daemon/gdm.c, config/Makefile.am: Make the
ServAuthDir permissions to be 1770 with owenership root.gdm.
That makes it impossible for the gdm user to run DoS attacks
against the gdm daemon (though without any process limits set
it can still somewhat do that)
* daemon/slave.c, daemon/display.c, daemon/gdm.c, daemon/misc.c,
daemon/server.c: Hunt more races and hangs. Make sure we really
don't do anything bad in signal handlers by making a setjmp
at the beginning of the slave_start function and returning
there from signal handlers to do final cleanup kind of stuff.
Also when we are receiving TERM signals while waiting on stuff
to die, be very un-nice to things and SIGKILL them. Also stop
using sleep if we might be using alarm at the same time.
* daemon/display.c: whack non-useful signal block push on unmanage,
and if we get a TERM signal while waiting on the slave, then send
a TERM signal to the slave again.
* daemon/errorgui.c: set USER, USERNAME and LOGNAME to "gdm" so that
they don't end up root by some mistake
* daemon/slave.c: Use home of root rather then /root for the home
directory of gdmsetup. Also if we can't change to the home
directory chdir to / instead of leaving it at servauthdir.
Be anal about COOKIEs in the logfile. Also when things go
just a bit wrong and not completely whacko, don't ABORT but
just REMANAGE, the toplevel loop of death will handle things
for us correctly. And setsid a very close to the start of
the session to avoid a race ABORTing a display by mistake.
* daemon/slave.c: make the PostLogin behave just like PostSession
with respect to the return value
* daemon/verify-pam.c: avoid races on termination with the
verify_cleanup and handle some cases where crashes may (but
should not) occur.
* daemon/gdm.c: whack unneeded signal blockers (the main daemon
is all async with a nice mainloop)
* gui/gdmchooser.c: handle HUP gracefully, when one of the
config options we care about changes just restart self
instead of
* gui/gdmlogin.c, gui/greeter/greeter_item_ulist.c: make
the username bold
* docs/C/gdm.xml: update the PostLogin behaviour and the permissions
on the ServAuthDir
