2015-01-02 | libutil: Limit readLink() error to only overflows. | aszlig | |
Let's not just improve the error message itself, but also the behaviour to actually work around the ntfs-3g symlink bug. If the readlink() call returns a smaller size than the stat() call, this really isn't a problem even if the symlink target really has changed between the calls. So if stat() reports the size for the absolute path, it's most likely that the relative path is smaller and thus it should also work for file system bugs as mentioned in 93002d69fc58c2b71e2dfad202139230c630c53a.

2015-01-02 | libutil: Improve errmsg on readLink size mismatch. | aszlig | |
A message like "error: reading symbolic link `...' : Success" really is quite confusing, so let's not indicate "success" but rather point out the real issue. We could also limit the check of this to just check for non-negative values, but this would introduce a race condition between stat() and readlink() if the link target changes between those two calls, thus leading to a buffer overflow vulnerability. Reported by @Ericson2314 on IRC. Happened due to a possible ntfs-3g bug where a relative symlink returned the absolute path (st_)size in stat() while readlink() returned the relative size.
