This makes it easier to compile in multiple debugging modes, or on
Windows, without having to constantly paste annoying test-compile
commands out of comments in sshbn.c.
The new binary is compiled into the build directory, but not shipped
by 'make install', just like fuzzterm. Unlike fuzzterm, though, testbn
is also compiled on Windows, for which we didn't already have a
mechanism for building unshipped binaries; I've done the very simplest
thing for the moment, of providing a target in Makefile.vc to delete
them.
In order to comply with the PuTTY makefile system's constraint of
never compiling the same object multiple times with different ifdefs,
I've also moved testbn's main() out into its own source file.
By default Windows processes have wide open ACLs which allow interference
by other processes running as the same user. Adjust our ACL to make this
a bit harder.
Because it's useful to protect PuTTYtel as well, carve winsecur.c into
advapi functions and wincapi.c for crypt32 functions.
I'm about to want to make a change to all those functions at once, and
since they're almost identical, it seemed easiest to pull them out
into a common helper. The new source file be_misc.c is intended to
contain helper code common to all network back ends (crypto and
non-crypto, in particular), and initially it contains a
backend_socket_log() function which is the common part of ssh_log(),
telnet_log(), rlogin_log() etc.
It's for regression testing and fuzzing, so there's no use for it if
you're not a developer working on the source.
Leaving it out of the 'make install' target in Makefile.gtk is no
trouble because that's already handled manually in Recipe by inserting
a giant hairy Makefile fragment to do the installation. But
Makefile.am was just setting bin_PROGRAMS to the full set of binaries
built, so for that one, I had to invent a new Recipe program category
[UT] which moves a particular binary into noinst_PROGRAMS.
While I was at it, I've retired the [M] program category, which has
been lying around unused since Ben's old Mac OS pre-X port.
Starting up the random number generator is by far the slowest part of
plink's startup, and randomness is bad for fuzzing, so disabling it
should make fuzzing more effective.
They've now deprecated gtk_dialog_get_action_area, because they really
want a dialog box's action area to be filled with nothing but buttons
controlled by GTK which end the dialog with a response code. But we're
accustomed to putting all sorts of other things in our action area -
non-buttons, buttons that don't end the dialog, and sub-widgets that
do layout - and so I think it's no longer sensible to be trying to
coerce our use cases into GtkDialog.
Hence, I'm introducing a set of wrapper functions which equivocate
between a GtkDialog for GTK1 and GTK2, and a GtkWindow with a vbox in
it for GTK3, and I'll lay out the action area by hand.
(Not everything has sensible layout and margins in the new GTK3 system
yet, but I can sort that out later.)
Because the new functions are needed by gtkask.c, which doesn't link
against gtkdlg.c or include putty.h, I've put them in a new source
file and header file pair gtkmisc.[ch] which is common to gtkask and
the main GTK edifice.
PuTTY's main mb_to_wc() function is all very well for embedding in
fiddly data pipelines, but for the simple job of turning a C string
into a C wide string, really I want something much more like
dupprintf. So here is one.
I've had to put it in a new separate source file miscucs.c rather than
throwing it into misc.c, because misc.c is linked into tools that
don't also include a module providing the internal Unicode API (winucs
or uxucs). The new miscucs.c appears only in Unicode-using tools.
When anyone connects to a PuTTY tool's listening socket - whether it's
a user of a local->remote port forwarding, a connection-sharing
downstream or a client of Pageant - we'd like to log as much
information as we can find out about where the connection came from.
To that end, I've implemented a function sk_peer_info() in the socket
abstraction, which returns a freeform text string as best it can (or
NULL, if it can't get anything at all) describing the thing at the
other end of the connection. For TCP connections, this is done using
getpeername() to get an IP address and port in the obvious way; for
Unix-domain sockets, we attempt SO_PEERCRED (conditionalised on some
moderately hairy autoconfery) to get the pid and owner of the peer. I
haven't implemented anything for Windows named pipes, but I will if I
hear of anything useful.
I've written my own analogue of OpenSSH's ssh-askpass. At the moment,
it's contained inside Pageant proper, though it could easily be
compiled into a standalone binary as well or instead.
Unlike OpenSSH's version, I don't use a GTK edit box; instead I just
process key events myself and append them to a buffer. The big
advantage of doing this is that I can arrange for ^W and ^U to
function as they do in terminal line editing, i.e. delete a word or
delete the whole line.
^W in particular is really valuable when typing a multiple-word
passphrase unseen. If you feel yourself making the kind of typo in
which you're not sure if you pressed six keys or just five, you can
hit ^W and restart just that word, without either having to go right
back to the beginning or carry on and see if you feel lucky.
A delete-word function would of course be an information leak in even
an obscured edit box (displaying a blob per character), so instead I
give a visual acknowledgment of keypresses by a more ad-hoc means: I
display three lights in the box, and every meaningful keypress turns
off the currently active one and instead turns on a randomly selected
one of the others. (So the lit light doesn't even indicate _mod 3_ how
many keys have been pressed.)
This brings in the code we'll need to request passphrases from the
terminal, and to talk to an existing SSH agent as a client.
Adding uxcons.c required adjusting the set of stub functions in
uxpgnt.c: uxcons.c removed the need for several, but added one of its
own (log_eventlog). A net win, though.
This is much more like ssh-agent than the Windows version is - it sets
SSH_AUTH_SOCK and SSH_AGENT_PID as its means of being found by other
processes, rather than Windows Pageant's approach of establishing
itself in a well-known location. But the actual agent code is the same
as Windows Pageant.
For the moment, this is an experimental utility and I don't expect it
to be useful to many people; its immediate use to me is that it
provides a way to test and debug the agent code on Unix, and also to
use the agent interface as a convenient way to exercise public key
functions I want to debug. And of course it means I can be constantly
using and testing my own code, on whatever platform I happen to be
using. In the further future, I have a list of possible features I
might add to it, but I don't know which ones I'll decide are
worthwhile.
One feature I've already put in is a wider range of lifetime
management options than ssh-agent: the -X mode causes Pageant to make
a connection to your X display, and automatically terminate when that
connection closes, so that it has the same lifetime as your X session
without having to do the cumbersome trick of exec()ing the subsequent
session-management process.
I'm aiming for windows/winpgnt.c to only contain the parts of Windows
Pageant that are actually to do with handling the Windows API, and for
all the actual agent logic to be cross-platform.
This commit is a start: I've moved every function and internal
variable that was easy to move. But it doesn't get all the way there -
there's still a lot of logic in add_keyfile() and get_keylist*() that
would be good to move out to cross-platform code, but it's harder
because that code is currently quite intertwined with details of
Windows OS interfacing such as printing message boxes and passphrase
prompts and calling back out to agent_query if the Pageant doing that
job isn't the primary one.
This is import only, for the moment: I haven't written an exporter
yet. Also, we currently don't support the format's full generality - a
new-style OpenSSH key file can contain multiple keys, but this code
currently only handles files with one key in them. That should be easy
to change, though, given only a little UI.
This provides support for ECDSA public keys, for both hosts and users,
and also ECDH key exchange. Supported curves are currently just the
three NIST curves required by RFC 5656.
I've shifted away from using the SVN revision number as a monotonic
version identifier (replacing it in the Windows version resource with
a count of days since an arbitrary epoch), and I've removed all uses
of SVN keyword expansion (replacing them with version information
written out by Buildscr).
While I'm at it, I've done a major rewrite of the affected code which
centralises all the computation of the assorted version numbers and
strings into Buildscr, so that they're all more or less alongside each
other rather than scattered across multiple source files.
I've also retired the MD5-based manifest file system. A long time ago,
it seemed like a good idea to arrange that binaries of PuTTY would
automatically cease to identify themselves as a particular upstream
version number if any changes were made to the source code, so that if
someone made a local tweak and distributed the result then I wouldn't
get blamed for the results. Since then I've decided the whole idea is
more trouble than it's worth, so now distribution tarballs will have
version information baked in and people can just cope with that.

Manfred Schwarb points out that when I moved the autoconf machinery up
from the unix subdirectory to the top level, in r10141, I missed a
couple of lingering $(srcdir)/.. in the make rule for version.o, as a
result of which the automatic checking of the manifest wasn't doing
its thing and tools built from a standard .tar.gz were reporting as
'Unidentified build'.
[originally from svn r10201]
[r10141 == a947c49bec]
Previously, 'configure' and its assorted machinery lived in the 'unix'
subdir, because that seemed like a clean place to keep it given that
all the other per-platform Makefiles live in their platform
directories. However, this never sat all that happily with autotools,
and even less so now that it likes to have object file pathnames
parallel source file pathnames: if you have Makefile.am refer to
source files outside its subdir as "../terminal.c" and enable
subdir-objects then any out-of-tree build calls the corresponding
object file "../terminal.o" and so your build products mostly end up
at the directory above your build dir! And as of autotools 1.14 my
previous compensatory bodge of prefixing every source file path in
Makefile.am with "$(srcdir)" has stopped working too.
So I'm giving in to necessity, and changing policy by moving the
configure machinery up to the top level of the source tree where
autotools will be less confused by it. This should not be taken as any
indication of the primacy of the Unix port, only of the recalcitrance
of autotools.
Whereas before we had a trivial script called 'configure' at the top
level that invoked unix/configure to effectively do an 'out-of-tree
build' (for make purposes) at the top level of the source tree, we now
have a similar script in unix/configure. So this _should_ make very
little difference: people who were previously running configure from
the top level should still be able to, and likewise people who were
running it from the unix subdir.
[originally from svn r10141]
Thanks to Mike Edenfield for the initial version of this patch; I've
polished it up a bit (in particular inventing a more overengineered
GUID generation strategy) but most of it is his.
[originally from svn r10112]
The basic strategy is described at the top of the new source file
sshshare.c. In very brief: an 'upstream' PuTTY opens a Unix-domain
socket or Windows named pipe, and listens for connections from other
PuTTYs wanting to run sessions on the same server. The protocol spoken
down that socket/pipe is essentially the bare ssh-connection protocol,
using a trivial binary packet protocol with no encryption, and the
upstream has to do some fiddly transformations that I've been
referring to as 'channel-number NAT' to avoid resource clashes between
the sessions it's managing.
This is quite different from OpenSSH's approach of using the Unix-
domain socket as a means of passing file descriptors around; the main
reason for that is that fd-passing is Unix-specific but this system
has to work on Windows too. However, there are additional advantages,
such as making it easy for each downstream PuTTY to run its own
independent set of port and X11 forwardings (though the method for
making the latter work is quite painful).
Sharing is off by default, but configuration is intended to be very
easy in the normal case - just tick one box in the SSH config panel
and everything else happens automatically.
[originally from svn r10083]
There's now a winsecur.[ch], which centralises helper functions using
the Windows security stuff in advapi.h (currently just get_user_sid),
and also centralises the run-time loading of those functions and
checking they're all there.
[originally from svn r10082]
It's now kept in a separate module, where it can be reused
conveniently for other kinds of Windows HANDLE that I want to wrap in
the PuTTY Socket abstraction - for example, the named pipes that I
shortly plan to use for the Windows side of connection-sharing IPC.
[originally from svn r10066]
This isn't yet used, but I plan to use it in situations where you have
to report errors by returning a valid Socket on which the client wlil
call sk_socket_error, but in fact you notice the error _before_
instantiating your usual kind of Socket. The resulting Socket is
usable for nothing except reading out the error string and closing it.
[originally from svn r10065]
It was one of those things that went in ages ago on Windows and never
got replicated in the Unix front end. And it needn't be: ldisc.c is a
perfect place to put it, since it knows which of the data it's sending
is based on a keystroke and which is automatically generated, and it
also has access to the terminal context. So now a keypress can
interrupt a runaway paste on all platforms.
[originally from svn r10025]
This is a little like schedule_timer, in that the callback you provide
will be run from the top-level message loop of whatever application
you're in; but unlike the timer mechanism, it will happen
_immediately_.
The aim is to provide a general way to avoid re-entrance of code, in
cases where just _doing_ the thing you want done is liable to trigger
a confusing recursive call to the function in which you came to the
decision to do it; instead, you just request a top-level callback at
the message loop's earliest convenience, and do it then.

makefile) as a side effect of running mkfiles.pl.
The automake docs observe that the BUILT_SOURCES list is only
automatically built by plain 'make' or 'make all' or a couple of other
targets, so the sequence './configure && make plink' from a freshly
unpacked tar file would previously fail for lack of empty.h.
If empty.h had important _content_ that needed to be built at compile
time, of course, I wouldn't be able to fix it like this; but since the
only important thing is the timestamp, I can just make sure it already
exists at the time of first build.

nonstandard port number when loading a saved session.
Occurs because those tools include be_none.c which defines no entries
in backends[] at all, as a result of which settings.c doesn't
recognise the word 'ssh' in the saved session's protocol field and
instead sets the protocol to something idiotic - which _then_ means
that when pscp.c forces the protocol to PROT_SSH, it also resets the
port number as it would when overriding a saved session specifying a
protocol other than SSH.
The immediate solution is to define a new be_ssh.c citing only
ssh_backend, and include that in the SSH-only tools. However, I wonder
if a better approach (perhaps when I redesign session loading and
saving) would be not to be so clever, and just have all the tools
contain a complete list of known protocol names for purposes of
understanding what's in the saved session data, and complain if you
try to use one they don't know how to actually speak.
[originally from svn r9254]
mkfiles.pl no longer generates a Makefile.in, but instead generates a
Makefile.am on which mkauto.sh runs automake. This means that the
autoconfigured makefile now does build-time dependency tracking (a
standard feature of automake-generated makefiles), and is generally
more like what Unix people will expect.
Some of the old-style make command-line settings (VER=-DRELEASE=foo,
XFLAGS=-DDEBUG) will still work; the COMPAT settings are better done
by autoconfiguration, and my habitual 'XFLAGS="-g -O0"' for an easily
debuggable build will actually not work any more because CFLAGS is
specified _after_ XFLAGS, so I should instead write 'make CFLAGS=-O0'
(-g is the default in automake, removed at 'make install' time).
The new makefile will automatically degrade into one that builds the
command-line tools only, in the case where GTK could not be found. In
principle, therefore, it should be an adequate replacement for _both_
the static Unix makefiles, Makefile.gtk and Makefile.ux. I haven't
actually retired those in this commit, but I'm pretty tempted.

'Config' in putty.h, which stores all PuTTY's settings and includes an
arbitrary length limit on every single one of those settings which is
stored in string form. In place of it is 'Conf', an opaque data type
everywhere outside the new file conf.c, which stores a list of (key,
value) pairs in which every key contains an integer identifying a
configuration setting, and for some of those integers the key also
contains extra parts (so that, for instance, CONF_environmt is a
string-to-string mapping). Everywhere that a Config was previously
used, a Conf is now; everywhere there was a Config structure copy,
conf_copy() is called; every lookup, adjustment, load and save
operation on a Config has been rewritten; and there's a mechanism for
serialising a Conf into a binary blob and back for use with Duplicate
Session.
User-visible effects of this change _should_ be minimal, though I
don't doubt I've introduced one or two bugs here and there which will
eventually be found. The _intended_ visible effects of this change are
that all arbitrary limits on configuration strings and lists (e.g.
limit on number of port forwardings) should now disappear; that list
boxes in the configuration will now be displayed in a sorted order
rather than the arbitrary order in which they were added to the list
(since the underlying data structure is now a sorted tree234 rather
than an ad-hoc comma-separated string); and one more specific change,
which is that local and dynamic port forwardings on the same port
number are now mutually exclusive in the configuration (putting 'D' in
the key rather than the value was a mistake in the first place).
One other reorganisation as a result of this is that I've moved all
the dialog.c standard handlers (dlg_stdeditbox_handler and friends)
out into config.c, because I can't really justify calling them generic
any more. When they took a pointer to an arbitrary structure type and
the offset of a field within that structure, they were independent of
whether that structure was a Config or something completely different,
but now they really do expect to talk to a Conf, which can _only_ be
used for PuTTY configuration, so I've renamed them all things like
conf_editbox_handler and moved them out of the nominally independent
dialog-box management module into the PuTTY-specific config.c.

reorganises the GSSAPI support so that it handles alternative
implementations of the GSS-API. In particular, this means PuTTY can
now talk to MIT Kerberos for Windows instead of being limited to
SSPI. I don't know for sure whether further tweaking will be needed
(to the UI, most likely, or to automatic selection of credentials),
but testing reports suggest it's now at least worth committing to
trunk to get it more widely tested.

strings more rigorously, and then we look up the local X authority
data in .Xauthority _ourself_ rather than delegating to an external
xauth program. This is (negligibly) more efficient on Unix, assuming
I haven't got it wrong in some subtle way, but its major benefit is
that we can now support X authority lookups on Windows as well
provided the user points us at an appropriate X authority file in
the standard format. A new Windows-specific config option has been
added for this purpose.

explicitly deals with GdkFont out into a new module, behind a
polymorphic interface (done by ad-hoc explicit vtable management in
C). This should allow me to drop in a Pango font handling module in
parallel with the existing one, meaning that GTK2 PuTTY will be able
to seamlessly switch between X11 server-side fonts and Pango client-
side ones as the user chooses, or even use a mixture of the two
(e.g. an X11 font for narrow characters and a Pango one for wide
characters, or vice versa).
In the process, incidentally, I got to the bottom of the `weird bug'
mentioned in the old do_text_internal(). It's not a bug in
gdk_draw_text_wc() as I had thought: it's simply that GdkWChar is a
32-bit type rather than a 16-bit one, so no wonder you have to
specify twice the length to find all the characters in the string!
However, there _is_ a bug in GTK2's gdk_draw_text_wc(), which causes
it to strip off everything above the low byte of each GdkWChar,
sigh. Solution to both problems is to use an array of the underlying
Xlib type XChar2b instead, and pass it to gdk_draw_text() cast to
gchar *. Grotty, but it works. (And it'll become significantly less
grotty if and when we have to stop using the GDK font handling
wrappers in favour of going direct to Xlib.)

of minor infrastructure changes:
- New dlg_label_change() function in the dialog.h interface, which
alters the label on a control. Only used, at present, to switch
the Host Name and Port boxes into Serial Line and Speed, which
means that any platform not implementing serial connections (i.e.
currently all but Windows) does not need to actually do anything
in this function. Yet.
- New small piece of infrastructure: cfg_launchable() determines
whether a Config structure describes a session ready to be
launched. This was previously determined by seeing if it had a
non-empty host name, but it has to check the serial line as well
so there's a centralised function for it. I haven't gone through
all front ends and arranged for this function to be used
everywhere it needs to be; so far I've only checked Windows.
- Similarly, cfg_dest() returns the destination of a connection

I have tested that this compiles on Visual C 7 (so the nightlies
_should_ acquire IPv6 support without missing a beat), but since I
don't have IPv6 set up myself I haven't actually tested that it
_works_. It still seems to make correct IPv4 connections, but that's
all I've been able to verify for myself. Further testing is needed.

it's more consistent with PSFTP like this: scp.c/pscp.c is more
similar to psftp.c (the main application framework) than it is to
sftp.c (a set of back-end library routines).

timing.c, and hence takes its own responsibility for calling
noise_regular() at regular intervals. Again, this means it will be
called consistently in _all_ the SSH-speaking tools, not just those
in which I remembered to call it!

which pretty much any module can call to request a call-back in the
future. So terminal.c can do its own handling of blinking, visual
bells and deferred screen updates, without having to rely on
term_update() being called 50 times a second (fixes: pterm-timer);
and ssh.c and telnet.c both invoke a new module pinger.c which takes
care of sending keepalives, so they get sent uniformly in all front
ends (fixes: plink-keepalives, unix-keepalives).

long last to move all the Windows-specific source files down into a
`windows' subdirectory. Only platform-specific files remain at the
top level. With any luck this will act as a hint to anyone still
contemplating sending us a Windows-centric patch...

when talking to SOCKS 5 proxies. Configures itself transparently (if
the proxy offers CHAP it will use it, otherwise it falls back to
ordinary cleartext passwords).

directives that allow me to move some of the PuTTY-specific Makefile
fragments into Recipe. Not complete yet, but ought to be enough for
me to at least _try_ using mkfiles.pl in another project.

on Linux, but the (very few) platform-specific bits are already
abstracted out of the main code, so it should port to other
platforms with a minimum of fuss.

attempt to load WS2 and then fall back to WS1 if that fails. This
should allow us to use WS2-specific functionality to find out the
local system's list of IP addresses, thus fixing winnet-if2lo, while
degrading gracefully back to the previous behaviour if that
functionality is unavailable. (I haven't yet actually done this; I've
just laid the groundwork.)
This checkin _may_ cause instability; it seemed fine to me on
initial testing, but it's a bit of an upheaval and I wouldn't like
to make bets on it just yet.

platform-independent source file. Haven't yet added the extra
abstraction routines to uxsftp.c to create a Unix PSCP port, but it
shouldn't take long.
Also in this checkin, a change of semantics in platform_default_s():
now strings returned from it are expected to be dynamically allocated.

... here's a Unix port of PSFTP. Woo. (Oddly PSCP looks to be
somewhat harder; there's more Windows code interleaved than there
was in PSFTP.)
