2020-11-30 Thread Balint Reczey
** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  * Ubuntu 18.04 is missing various stability and performance fixes that
  have been added to upstream's 2.27 branch. The accumulated changes are
  known to fix various issues already reported to Launchpad.
  
  [Test Case]
  * Observe that debian/patches/git-updates-2.diff contains the missing 
upstream commits intended to be backported.
  * Observe the patch being applied at build time.
  
  * All triggered autopkgtests were run in the Bileto PPA before the SRU upload 
took place and no reggressions were found.
  * Several issues fixed in git-updates-2.diff were reported on Launchpad and 
the ones having reproducers were and will be verified separately.
  
  [Regression Potential]
  * Any form of regression is possible including hangs, live locks and crashes 
due to the broad range of fixes to be backported. In addition to the standard 
autopkgtests it is recommended to keep the packages in bionic-proposed longer 
and call for testing on additional public channels, such as on the ubuntu-devel 
mailing list.
  
  The update seem to have triggered an existing, but hiding bug in lftp:
  LP: #1902832.

and later releases: #1821677.

  [Original Bug Text]
  
  Hi,
  
  I updated from ubuntu 14.04 to 18.04 and installed a custom (old)
  application.
  
  When starting the application it stop immediately with this error message:
  "glibc detected an invalid stdio handle"
  
  This error message was added by commit [1] "libio: Implement vtable
  verification [BZ #20191]" to fix a security issue [2].
  
  I tested with several Linux distribution (so different libc version) and
  the application is working fine with Fedora 30 (Glibc 2.29).
  
  There is an interesting patch [3] from Glibc 2.28 which was backported
  to Glibc 2.27 [4] "libio: Disable vtable validation in case of
  interposition [BZ #23313]"
  
  But Ubuntu 18.04 is still using an old Glibc 2.27 version (from 02-2018).
  Here is the Glibc version used in 18.04:
  $ dpkg -s libc6
  [...]
  Version: 2.27-3ubuntu1
  
  Looking at the changelog, ubuntu updated Glibc 2.27 the 16 Apr 2018 but
  there is a lot of fix from upstream Glibc 2.27 stable branch. The one
  I'm looking for was merged the 07-2018.
  
  It would be great if Ubuntu 18.04 can update Glibc to the latest stable
  version.
  
  Best regards,
  Romain

The verification of the Stable Release Update for glibc has completed
successfully and the package is now being released to -updates.
Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being
unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report.  In
the event that you encounter a regression using the package from
-updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report
regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

Done.

* Observe the patch being applied at build time.

I've verified that at least my issue is resolved by this:

```
docker run -it --rm ubuntu:18.04

wget https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=11382 -O bug23861.c

The above hands, now if we try to update to the newer proposed version.

  Hi,
  
  I updated from ubuntu 14.04 to 18.04 and installed a custom (old)
  application.
  
  When starting the application it stop immediately with this error message:
  "glibc detected an invalid stdio handle"
  
  This error message was added by commit [1] "libio: Implement vtable
  verification [BZ #20191]" to fix a security issue [2].
  
  I tested with several Linux distribution (so different libc version) and
  the application is working fine with Fedora 30 (Glibc 2.29).
  
  There is an interesting patch [3] from Glibc 2.28 which was backported
  to Glibc 2.27 [4] "libio: Disable vtable validation in case of
  interposition [BZ #23313]"
  
  But Ubuntu 18.04 is still using an old Glibc 2.27 version (from 02-2018).
  Here is the Glibc version used in 18.04:
  $ dpkg -s libc6
  [...]
  Version: 2.27-3ubuntu1
  
  Looking at the changelog, ubuntu updated Glibc 2.27 the 16 Apr 2018 but
  there is a lot of fix from upstream Glibc 2.27 stable branch. The one
  I'm looking for was merged the 07-2018.
  
  It would be great if Ubuntu 18.04 can update Glibc to the latest stable
  version.

  Romain

[Bug 1851263] Re: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS bump Glibc 2.27 to the latest stable

2020-09-10 Thread Steve Langasek
Hello Romain, or anyone else affected,

Accepted glibc into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/2.27-3ubuntu1.3
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-bionic. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: glibc (Ubuntu Bionic)
   Status: New => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-bionic

[Bug 1851263] Re: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS bump Glibc 2.27 to the latest stable

2020-09-09 Thread Balint Reczey
** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+ * Ubuntu 18.04 is missing various stability and performance fixes that
+ have been added to upstream's 2.27 branch. The accumulated changes are
+ known to fix various issues already reported to Launchpad.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ * Observe that debian/patches/git-updates-2.diff contains the missing 
upstream commits intended to be backported.
+ * Observe the patch being applied at build time.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ * Any form of regression is possible including hangs, live locks and crashes 
due to the broad range of fixes to be backported. In addition to the standard 
autopkgtests it is recommended to keep the packages in bionic-proposed longer 
and call for testing on additional public channels, such as on the ubuntu-devel 
mailing list.

+ [Original Bug Text]
+ 
  Hi,
  
  I updated from ubuntu 14.04 to 18.04 and installed a custom (old)
  application.
  
  When starting the application it stop immediately with this error message:
  "glibc detected an invalid stdio handle"
  
  This error message was added by commit [1] "libio: Implement vtable
  verification [BZ #20191]" to fix a security issue [2].
  
  I tested with several Linux distribution (so different libc version) and
  the application is working fine with Fedora 30 (Glibc 2.29).
  
  There is an interesting patch [3] from Glibc 2.28 which was backported
  to Glibc 2.27 [4] "libio: Disable vtable validation in case of
  interposition [BZ #23313]"
  
  But Ubuntu 18.04 is still using an old Glibc 2.27 version (from 02-2018).
  Here is the Glibc version used in 18.04:
  $ dpkg -s libc6
  [...]
  Version: 2.27-3ubuntu1
  
  Looking at the changelog, ubuntu updated Glibc 2.27 the 16 Apr 2018 but
  there is a lot of fix from upstream Glibc 2.27 stable branch. The one
  I'm looking for was merged the 07-2018.
  
  It would be great if Ubuntu 18.04 can update Glibc to the latest stable
  version.
  
  Best regards,
  Romain

I installed the ppa and tested the glibc 2.27-3 package.
I can confirm the issue #1851263 can't be reproduced.

Thanks for the update!

Best regards,

The SRU is being pre-tested in https://bileto.ubuntu.com/#/ticket/4217 .
There are a low number of test failures which could indicate regressions, those 
are being checked and fixed if needed before the upload to the archive. 
Additional testing is welcome.

Hi Adam,

Thanks for your feedback.
Do you have any info (date) about the work in progress to update Glibc 2.27 for 
Ubuntu 18.04?

Best regards,

There is an intent to rebase to 2.27/master, yes.

2019-11-06 Thread Romain Naour
Hi Loïc,

You're welcome.

Yes, I understand that glibc is a critical piece and we need to do the
upgrade carefully.

With my customer, we tested with several ubuntu versions:
ubuntu 14.04: glibc 2.19: OK
ubuntu 16.04: glibc 2.23: OK
ubuntu 18.04: glibc 2.27: KO
ubuntu 18.10: glibc 2.28: OK

Only the LTS 18.04 is affected.

The patch I'm looking for has been backported [1] by Glibc upstream
project (for good reason) and they are certainly more competent than me
to complete the SRU process.

Maybe other patches related to libio can be necessary [2] and there are some 
patches related to CVE.
I only tested up to the last Debian glibc 2.27 version packaged [3].

2019-11-06 Thread Florian Weimer
I think what Romain is asking is to rebase along release/2.27/master,
and not a different upstream version. If you don't do that, you have to
evaluate each upstream commit individually for backporting.

Hi Romain and thanks for your report,

In general, we don't make large upstream updates after release, especially for 
LTS and even more so for a critical piece like glibc. If you've identified the 
single patch that would address your issue, it can be considered for the SRU 
process:
