These are benign, I think. clang warns about casting non-pointer-sized
integers to pointers, but the Windows API actually does sometimes
involve values that are either pointers or _small_ integers, so in the
two cases involved I just cast through ULONG_PTR to silence the
warning. And clang insists that the integer whose address I give to
sk_getxdmdata is still uninitialised afterwards, which is just a lie.
clang-cl generates warnings saying they're deprecated, in favour of
the same names but prefixed with an underscore. The warnings are
coming from the standard MS headers, and I'm already #defining those
names differently on Unix, so I'll honour them.
When I added some extra braces in commit 095072fa4 to suppress this
warning, I think in fact I did the wrong thing, because the
declaration syntax I was originally using is the Microsoft-recommended
one in spite of clang not liking it - I think MS would be within their
rights (should they feel like it) to add those missing braces in a
later version of the WinSock headers, which would make the current
warning-clean code stop compiling. So it's better to put the code back
as it was, and avoid the clang warning by using clang's
warning-suppression pragmas for just those declarations.
I've also done the same thing in winnet.c, for two initialisers of
IPv6 well-known addresses which had the same problem (but which I
didn't notice yesterday because a misjudged set of Windows version
macros had prevented me from compiling that file successfully at all).
We used to offer to clean up saved sessions, so we should mention that
we don't for the benefit of users of old versions, who might have been
relying on it.
This change applies to every situation when GUI PuTTY knowingly spawns
another GUI PuTTY, to wit, the System menu options 'New Session',
'Duplicate Session' and the 'Saved Sessions' submenu.
(Literally speaking, what we actually pass through to the sub-PuTTY's
command line is not the "-restrict-acl" option itself, but a special
prefix "&R", which has the same meaning but which lives in the special
pre-argv-splitting command-line namespace like the magic options used
for Duplicate Session and the old '@sessionname' prefix which the
Saved Sessions submenu still uses. Otherwise, by the time we split up
argv and recognised -restrict-acl, it would be too late to parse those
other options.)
One case in which PuTTY spawns a subprocess and this change _doesn't_
apply is when the subprocess is a proxy command which happens to be a
Plink. Recognising Plink commands in that situation would be fragile
and unreliable, and in any case if the user wants a proxy Plink to be
ACL-restricted, they are in control of its exact command line so they
can add -restrict-acl themselves.
These ones are stylistic rather than potential bugs: mostly signedness
of char pointers in cases where they clearly aren't going to cause the
wrong thing to actually happen, and one thing in winsecur.c where
clang would have preferred an extra pair of braces around some
initialisers but it's legal with or without. But since some of clang's
warnings turn out to be quite useful, it seems worth silencing these
harmless ones so as to be able to see the rest.
I was having a play with clang's MSVC compatibility mode, just to see
how much of PuTTY it could compile, and one of its warnings pointed
out this error which must have crept in when I was changing the EOF
flags in winhandl.c from booleans to three-state enums - I left the !
on the front of what was previously an if (!thing) and needed to turn
into if (thing == EOF_NO).
Several functions were passing a 'char *error' and assigning error
messages directly into 'error', where they should have been passing
'char **error' and assigning error messages into '*error' if the error
message is to be returned to the caller. This would have led to
incomplete error messages.
As documented in bug 'win-process-acl-finesse', we've had enough
assorted complaints about it breaking various non-malicious pieces of
Windows process interaction (ranging from git->plink integration to
screen readers for the vision-impaired) that I think it's more
sensible to set the process back to its default level of protection.
This precaution was never a fully effective protection anyway, due to
the race condition at process startup; the only properly effective
defence would have been to prevent malware running under the same user
ID as PuTTY in the first place, so in that sense, nothing has changed.
But people who want the arguable defence-in-depth advantage of the ACL
restriction can now turn it on with the '-restrict-acl' command-line
option, and it's up to them whether they can live with the assorted
inconveniences that come with it.
In the course of this change, I've centralised a bit more of the
restriction code into winsecur.c, to avoid repeating the error
handling in multiple places.
The previous agent-forwarding system worked by passing each complete
query received from the input to agent_query() as soon as it was
ready. So if the remote client were to pipeline multiple requests,
then Unix PuTTY (in which agent_query() works asynchronously) would
parallelise them into many _simultaneous_ connections to the real
agent - and would not track which query went out first, so that if the
real agent happened to send its replies (to what _it_ thought were
independent clients) in the wrong order, then PuTTY would serialise
the replies on to the forwarding channel in whatever order it got
them, which wouldn't be the order the remote client was expecting.
To solve this, I've done a considerable rewrite, which keeps the
request stream in a bufchain, and only removes data from the bufchain
when it has a complete request. Then, if agent_query decides to be
asynchronous, the forwarding system waits for _that_ agent response
before even trying to extract the next request's worth of data from
the bufchain.
As an added bonus (in principle), this gives agent-forwarding channels
some actual flow control for the first time ever! If a client spams us
with an endless stream of rapid requests, and never reads its
responses, then the output side of the channel will run out of window,
which causes us to stop processing requests until we have space to
send responses again, which in turn causes us to stop granting extra
window on the input side, which serves the client right.
Now, instead of returning a boolean indicating whether the query has
completed or is still pending, agent_query() returns NULL to indicate
that the query _has_ completed, and if it hasn't, it returns a pointer
to a context structure representing the pending query, so that the
latter can be used to cancel the query if (for example) you later
decide you need to free the thing its callback was using as a context.
This should fix a potential race-condition segfault if you overload an
agent forwarding channel and then close it abruptly. (Which nobody
will be doing for sensible purposes, of course! But I ran across this
while stress-testing other aspects of agent forwarding.)
It's been commented out for ages because it never really worked, and
it's about to become further out of date when I make other changes to
the agent client code, so it's time to get rid of it before it gets in
the way.
If and when I do get round to supporting asynchronous agent requests
on Windows, it's now pretty clear to me that trying to coerce this
ghastly window-message IPC into the right shape is the wrong way, and
a better approach will be to make Pageant support a named-pipe based
alternative transport for its agent connections, and speaking the
ordinary stream-oriented agent protocol over that. Then Pageant will
be able to start adding interactive features (like confirmation
dialogs or on-demand decryption) with freedom to reply to multiple
simultaneous agent connections in whatever order it finds convenient.
backend_socket_log was generating the IP address in its error messages
by means of calling sk_getaddr(). But sk_getaddr only gets a SockAddr,
which may contain a whole list of candidate addresses; it doesn't also
get the information stored in the 'step' field of the Socket that was
actually trying to make the connection, which says _which_ of those
addresses we were in the middle of trying to connect to.
So now we construct a temporary SockAddr that points at the
appropriate one of the addresses, and use that for calls to plug_log
during connection setup.
In case of connection errors before and during the handshake,
net_select_result is retrying with the next address of the server. It
however was immediately going to the last address as it was not
checking the return value of try_connect for all intermediate
addresses.
This shows the build platform (32- vs 64-bit in particular, and also
whether Unix GTK builds were compiled with or without the X11 pieces),
what compiler was used to build the binary, and any interesting build
options that might have been set on the make command line (especially,
but not limited to, the security-damaging ones like NO_SECURITY or
UNPROTECT). This will probably be useful all over the place, but in
particular it should allow the different Windows binaries to be told
apart!
Commits 21101c739 and 2eb952ca3 laid the groundwork for this, by
allowing the various About boxes to contain free text and also
ensuring they could be copied and pasted easily as part of a bug
report.
It's a bit conceptually incoherent anyway - if you're uninstalling
PuTTY _systemwide_ across a multi-user system, it doesn't really make
sense that you'd also want to wipe the saved sessions for the
individual user running the uninstaller.
Also, making this change to the Inno Setup uninstaller opens up a
nicer migration path to MSI for people doing large corporate rollouts:
they can upgrade to this version of the Inno Setup package, then do a
silent uninstall of it (which should now _actually_ be silent, since
this cleanup step was the thing that interrupted it otherwise) and
then a silent install of the MSI.
The MSI format has a fixed field for target architecture, so there's
no way to build a single MSI that can decide at install time whether
to install 32-bit or 64-bit (or both). The best you can do along those
lines, apparently, is to have two MSI files plus a bootstrap .EXE that
decides which of them to run, and as far as I'm concerned that would
just reintroduce all the same risks and annoyances that made us want
to migrate away from .EXE installers anyway.
Uses the BUILDDIR mechanism I added to Makefile.vc in commit
d3db17f3e.
This change is purely internal to Buildscr, and shouldn't affect the
output of a build. It paves the way to have Buildscr run multiple
Windows builds using different compilers, by putting each one in a
different subdirectory so that their outputs don't collide.
A user points out that buf[] in sk_tcp_peer_info is only used in the
IPv6 branch of an ifdef, and is declared with a size of
INET6_ADDRSTRLEN, which won't be defined in NO_IPV6 mode. So moving
the definition inside another IPv6-only ifdef fixes the resulting
build failure.
The algorithm Windows uses to generate AppUserModelIDs "hangs on" to
removable media (CDs/DVDs) if PuTTY is launched with a CD/DVD in a drive.
Set the AppUserModelID explicitly to avoid using this algorithm.
At least on systems providing SetDefaultDllDirectories, this should
stop PuTTY from being willing to load DLLs from its containing
directory - which makes no difference when it's been properly
installed (in which case the application dir contains no DLLs anyway),
but does if it's being run from somewhere uncontrolled like a browser
downloads directory.
Preliminary testing suggests that this shouldn't break any existing
deliberate use of DLLs, including GSSAPI providers.
The Windows implementation of get_file_posn is calling SetFilePointer
to obtain the current position in the file. However it did not
initialize the variable holding the high order 32-bit to 0. Thus,
SetFilePointer either returned -1 to indicate an error or did move the
file pointer to a different location instead of just returning the
current position. This change just initializes the variable to 0.
As a result, this bug has caused psftp's reget command to fail
resuming transfers or to create corrupt files due to setting up an
incorrect resume offset.
Previously only Unix front ends bothered to include it, on the basis
that only the pty backend needed it (to set IUTF8 in the pty). We're
about to need it everywhere else too.
It's really only useful with MinGW rather than a Cygwin toolchain these
days, as recent versions of the latter insist against linking with the
Cygwin DLL.
(I think it may no longer be possible to build with Cygwin out of the
box at all these days, but I'm not going to say so without having
actually checked that's the case. Settle for listing MinGW first in
various comments and docs.)
I've just upgraded my build environment to the latest Inno Setup
(apparently fixing some DLL hijacking issues), and found that the
build script doesn't run any more because the name of the output file
has changed - it used to produce Output/setup.exe, but now it produces
Output/mysetup.exe.
Rather than just fixing the build script to expect the new name, I've
explicitly specified an output filename of my own choice in putty.iss,
so that the build script should now work with versions before and
after the change.
I can't believe this codebase is around 20 years old and has had
multiple giant const-fixing patches, and yet there are _still_ things
that should have been const for years and aren't.
Ahem. Cut-and-paste goof that I introduced in commit 2eb952ca3, when I
moved the application names out of separate text controls in the
resource-file dialog descriptions.
Blocking PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION access to the process turned out to
stop screen readers like Microsoft Narrator from reading parts of the
PuTTY window like the System Menu.
strcspn() returns a size_t, which is not safe to pass as the parameter
in a printf argument list corresponding to a "*" field width specifier
in the format string, because the latter should be int, which may not
be the same size as size_t.
We were calling Windows file-handling API functions GetFilesize and
SetFilePointer, each of which returns two halves of a large integer by
writing the high half through a pointer, with pointers to the wrong
integer types. Now we're always passing the exact type defined in the
API, and converting after the fact to our own uint64 type, so this
should avoid any risk of wrong-sized pointers.
These integer types are correct for the id/handle parameter to
AppendMenu / InsertMenu / DeleteMenu, and also for the return type of
dialog box procedures.
We also have the special-purpose -DUNPROTECT to disable just the ACL
changes, but if you want to compile without any Windows security API
support at all (e.g. experimentally building against winelib) then
it's easier not to have to specify both defines separately.
The old README.txt instructed you to manually update PATH if you
wanted to run pscp from a command prompt. But the MSI installer can do
that automatically, so the wording needs tweaks. And now that we're
actually launching README (at least optionally) from the installer UI,
it's more important to not make it look silly.
This is a thing that the Inno Setup installer did, and that I didn't
get round to replicating when I rushed out the initial MSI in a hurry.
I've checked that this doesn't prevent unattended installation by
administrators: running 'msiexec /q /i putty-whatever.msi' as
administrator still installs silently after this change, without
popping up the README unexpectedly on anyone's desktop as a side
effect.
(I _think_ - but I'm still a long way from an MSI expert - that that's
because /q turns off the whole UI part of the MSI system, and the
loading of README is actually triggered by the transition away from
the final UI dialog box, which we now never visit in the first place.)
I rushed out the MSI in too much of a hurry to sort out this kind of
thing, but now we've got leisure to reconsider, I think it's better
behaviour not to clutter everyone's desktops unless specifically asked
to.
It's only a warning; Windows PuTTYgen puts it up as a message box, and
will still generate the key if you click yes, and Unix PuTTYgen just
prints the warning and gets on with generation anyway. But it might
help encourage people to move away from 1024-bit keys, if they're
still using them.
Protecting our processes from outside interference need not be limited
to just PuTTY: there's no reason why the other SSH-speaking tools
shouldn't have the same treatment (PSFTP, PSCP, Plink), and PuTTYgen
and Pageant which handle private key material.
If you're connecting to a new server and it _only_ provides host key
types you've configured to be below the warning threshold, it's OK to
give the standard askalg() message. But if you've newly demoted a host
key type and now reconnect to some server for which that type was the
best key you had cached, the askalg() wording isn't really appropriate
(it's not that the key we've settled on is the first type _supported
by the server_, it's that it's the first type _cached by us_), and
also it's potentially helpful to list the better algorithms so that
the user can pick one to cross-certify.
Now we actually have enough of them to worry about, and especially
since some of the types we support are approved by organisations that
people might make their own decisions about whether to trust, it seems
worth having a config list for host keys the same way we have one for
kex types and ciphers.
To make room for this, I've created an SSH > Host Keys config panel,
and moved the existing host-key related configuration (manually
specified fingerprints) into there from the Kex panel.
This is an absolutely horrible piece of code, relying not only on font
metrics but also on an observed correlation between the length of a
key algorithm name and whether or not it needs a separate key size
displayed. But it'll do for the moment, and it's less effort than
writing a custom piece of Windows API code to display the list box
entries in a properly robust way :-(
Jacob pointed out that a free-text field for entering a key size in
bits is all very well for key types where we actually _can_ generate a
key to a size of your choice, but less useful for key types where
there are only three (or one) legal values for the field, especially
if we don't _say_ what they are.
So I've revamped the UI a bit: now, in ECDSA mode, you get a dropdown
list selector showing the available elliptic curves (and they're even
named, rather than just given by bit count), and in ED25519 mode even
that disappears. The curve selector for ECDSA and the bits selector
for RSA/DSA are independent controls, so each one remembers its last
known value even while temporarily hidden in favour of the other.
The actual generation function still expects a bit count rather than
an actual curve or algorithm ID, so the easiest way to actually
arrange to populate the drop-down list was to have an array of bit
counts exposed by sshecc.c. That's a bit ugly, but there we go.
One small functional change: if you enter an absurdly low value into
the RSA/DSA bit count box (under 256), PuTTYgen used to give a warning
and reset it to 256. Now it resets it to the default key length of
2048, basically because I was touching that code anyway to change a
variable name and just couldn't bring myself to leave it in a state
where it intentionally chose such an utterly useless key size. Of
course this doesn't prevent generation of 256-bit keys if someone
still really wants one - it just means they don't get one selected as
the result of a typo.
It would be nicer if we could also make this show up as the icon for
the .msi file itself when viewed in Explorer, but apparently nothing
can change that. But at least this still gives us _some_ use for the
cardboard-box icon :-)
Mostly this is a reaction to the reports of Inno Setup having a DLL
hijacking vulnerability. But also, the new installer has several other
nice features that our Inno Setup one didn't provide: it can put the
PuTTY install directory on PATH automatically, and it supports
completely automatic and silent install/uninstall via 'msiexec /q'
which should make it easier for sysadmins to roll out installation in
large organisations. Also, it just seems like good sense to be using
Windows's own native packaging system (or closest equivalent) rather
than going it alone.
(And on the developer side, I have to say I like the fact that WiX
lets me pass in the version number as a set of command-line #define-
equivalents, whereas for Inno Setup I had to have Buildscr apply Perl
rewriting to the source file.)
For the moment, I'm still building the old Inno Setup installer
alongside this one, but I expect to retire it once the WiX one has
survived in the wild for a while and proven itself more or less
stable.
I've found both MSI and WiX to be confusing and difficult
technologies, so this installer has some noticeable pieces missing
(e.g. retrospective reconfiguration of the installed feature set, and
per-user vs systemwide installation) simply because I couldn't get
them to work. I've commented the new installer source code heavily, in
the hope that a passing WiX expert can give me a hand!
A user reported in January that locking down our process ACL causes
get_user_sid's call to OpenProcessToken to fail with a permissions
error. This _shouldn't_ be important, because we'll already have found
and cached the user SID before getting that far - but unfortunately
the call to get_user_sid in winnpc.c was bypassing the cache and
trying the whole process again.
This fix changes the memory ownership semantics of get_user_sid():
it's now an error to free the value it gives you, or else the *next*
call to get_user_sid() will return a stale pointer. Hence, also
removed those frees everywhere they appear.
Now all the uses of the licence text or the short copyright notice get
it from a new header "licence.h", which in turn is built by a Perl
script licence.pl invoked by mkfiles.pl, using LICENCE itself as the
source.
Hence, I can completely remove a whole section from the list of
licence locations in CHECKLST.txt :-)

On both Unix and Windows, we now redirect the local proxy command's
standard error into a third pipe; data received from that pipe is
broken up at newlines and logged in the Event Log. So if the proxy
command emits any error messages in the course of failing to connect
to something, you now have a fighting chance of finding out what went
wrong.
This feature is disabled in command-line tools like PSFTP and Plink,
on the basis that in that situation it seems more likely that the user
would expect standard-error output to go to the ordinary standard
error in the ordinary way. Only GUI PuTTY catches it and logs it like
this, because it either doesn't have a standard error at all (on
Windows) or is likely to be pointing it at some completely unhelpful
session log file (under X).
I've defined a new value for the 'int type' parameter passed to
plug_log(), which proxy sockets will use to pass their backend
information on how the setup of their proxied connections are going.
I've implemented support for the new type code in all _nontrivial_
plug log functions (which, conveniently, are precisely the ones I just
refactored into backend_socket_log); the ones which just throw all
their log data away anyway will do that to the new code as well.
We use the new type code to log the DNS lookup and connection setup
for connecting to a networked proxy, and also to log the exact command
string sent down Telnet proxy connections (so the user can easily
debug mistakes in the configured format string) and the exact command
executed when spawning a local proxy process. (The latter was already
supported on Windows by a bodgy logging call taking advantage of
Windows in particular having no front end pointer; I've converted that
into a sensible use of the new plug_log facility, and done the same
thing on Unix.)

(The conflicts were both trivial: in one, the addition of an extra

Handles managed by winhandl.c have a 'busy' flag, which is used to
mean two things: (a) is a subthread currently blocked on this handle
so various operations in the main thread have to be deferred until it
finishes? And (b) is this handle currently one that should be returned
to the main loop to be waited for?
For HT_INPUT and HT_OUTPUT, those things are either both true or both
false, so a single flag covering both of them is fine. But HT_FOREIGN
handles have the property that they should always be waited for in the
main loop, but no subthread is blocked on them. The latter means that
operations done on them in the main thread should not be deferred; the
only such operation is cleaning them up in handle_free().
handle_free() was failing to spot this, and was deferring freeing
HT_FOREIGN handles until their subthread terminated - which of course
never happened. As a result, when a named pipe server was closed, its
actual Windows event object got destroyed, but winhandl.c still kept
passing it back to the main thread, leading to a tight loop because
MsgWaitForMultipleObjects would return ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE and never
block.

This is generated in response to the SendInput() Windows API call, if

'WinCompose' to send an arbitrary Unicode character as if it had been
typed at the keyboard, even if the keyboard doesn't actually provide a
key for it.
Like VK_PROCESSKEY, this key code is an exception to our usual policy
of manually translating keystrokes: we handle it by calling
TranslateMessage, to get back the Unicode character it contains as a
WM_CHAR message.
(If that Unicode character in turn is outside the BMP, it may come
back as a pair of WM_CHARs in succession containing UTF-16 surrogates;
if so, that's OK, because the new Unicode WM_CHAR handler can cope.)
(cherry picked from commit 65f3500906)
This causes WM_CHAR messages sent to us to have a wParam containing a
16-bit value encoded in UTF-16, rather than an 8-bit value encoded in
the system code page.
As far as I can tell, there aren't many other knock-on effects - e.g.
you can still interact with the window using ordinary char-based API
functions such as SetWindowText, and the Windows API will do the
necessary conversions behind the scenes. However, even so, I'm half
expecting some sort of unforeseen bug to show up as a result of this.

Commit f2e61275f introduced the use of uintptr_t, without adding an
include of <stdint.h> which is where the C standard says that type
should be defined. This didn't cause a build failure, because Visual
Studio also defines it in <stddef.h> which we do include. But a user
points out that other Windows toolchains - e.g. MinGW - don't
necessarily do the same.
I can't add an unconditional include of <stdint.h>, because the VS I
use for the current official builds doesn't have that header at all.
So I conditionalise it out for old VS; if it needs throwing out for
any other toolchain, I'll add further conditions as reports come in.
Handles managed by winhandl.c have a 'busy' flag, which is used to
mean two things: (a) is a subthread currently blocked on this handle
so various operations in the main thread have to be deferred until it
finishes? And (b) is this handle currently one that should be returned
to the main loop to be waited for?
For HT_INPUT and HT_OUTPUT, those things are either both true or both
false, so a single flag covering both of them is fine. But HT_FOREIGN
handles have the property that they should always be waited for in the
main loop, but no subthread is blocked on them. The latter means that
operations done on them in the main thread should not be deferred; the
only such operation is cleaning them up in handle_free().
handle_free() was failing to spot this, and was deferring freeing
HT_FOREIGN handles until their subthread terminated - which of course
never happened. As a result, when a named pipe server was closed, its
actual Windows event object got destroyed, but winhandl.c still kept
passing it back to the main thread, leading to a tight loop because
MsgWaitForMultipleObjects would return ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE and never
block.
If you use the new 'plink -shareexists' feature, then on Unix at least
it's possible for the upstream to receive EPIPE, because the
downstream makes a test connection and immediately closes it, so that
upstream fails to write its version string.
This looks a bit ugly in the upstream's Event Log, so I'm making a
special case: an error of 'broken pipe' type, which occurs on a socket
from a connection sharing downstream, before we've received a version
string from that downstream, is treated as an unusual kind of normal
connection termination and not logged as an error.
A Plink invocation of the form 'plink -shareexists <session>' tests
for a currently live connection-sharing upstream for the session in
question. <session> can be any syntax you'd use with Plink to make the
actual connection (a host/port number, a bare saved session name,
-load, whatever).
I envisage this being useful for things like adaptive proxying - e.g.
if you want to connect to host A which you can't route to directly,
and you might already have a connection to either of hosts B or C
which are viable proxies, then you could write a proxy shell script
which checks whether you already have an upstream for B or C and goes
via whichever one is currently active.
Testing for the upstream's existence has to be done by actually
connecting to its socket, because on Unix the mere existence of a
Unix-domain socket file doesn't guarantee that there's a process
listening to it. So we make a test connection, and then immediately
disconnect; hence, that shows up in the upstream's event log.
On Windows, colons are illegal in filenames, because they're part of
the path syntax. But colons can appear in automatically constructed
log file names, if an IPv6 address is expanded from the &H placeholder.
Now we coerce any such illegal characters to '.', which is a bit of a
bodge but should at least cause a log file to be generated.
I noticed that Unix PSCP was unwantedly renaming downloaded files
which had a backslash in their names, because pscp.c's stripslashes()
treated \ as a path component separator, since it hadn't been modified
since PSCP ran on Windows only.
It also turns out that pscp.c, psftp.c and winsftp.c all had a
stripslashes(), and they didn't all have quite the same prototype. So
now there's one in winsftp.c and one in uxsftp.c, with appropriate
OS-dependent behaviour, and the ones in pscp.c and psftp.c are gone.
We are passing pointers as third argument to AppendMenu. Do not
truncate them to UINT, use UINT_PTR instead which has the required
size on 64bit Windows.
We're passing a pointer as 4th argument to WinHelp. Do not cast it to
DWORD which would truncate the pointer. Instead use UINT_PTR as that
is what WinHelp expects.
We've had several reports that launching saved sessions from the
Windows 10 jump list fails; Changyu Li reports that this is because we
create those IShellLink objects with a command line string starting
with @, and in Windows 10 that causes the SetArguments method to
silently do the wrong thing.
This is generated in response to the SendInput() Windows API call, if
that in turn is passed an KEYBDINPUT structure with KEYEVENTF_UNICODE
set. That method of input generation is used by programs such as
'WinCompose' to send an arbitrary Unicode character as if it had been
typed at the keyboard, even if the keyboard doesn't actually provide a
key for it.
Like VK_PROCESSKEY, this key code is an exception to our usual policy
of manually translating keystrokes: we handle it by calling
TranslateMessage, to get back the Unicode character it contains as a
WM_CHAR message.
(If that Unicode character in turn is outside the BMP, it may come
back as a pair of WM_CHARs in succession containing UTF-16 surrogates;
if so, that's OK, because the new Unicode WM_CHAR handler can cope.)
This causes WM_CHAR messages sent to us to have a wParam containing a
16-bit value encoded in UTF-16, rather than an 8-bit value encoded in
the system code page.
As far as I can tell, there aren't many other knock-on effects - e.g.
you can still interact with the window using ordinary char-based API
functions such as SetWindowText, and the Windows API will do the
necessary conversions behind the scenes. However, even so, I'm half
expecting some sort of unforeseen bug to show up as a result of this.
Coverity complained that some paths through the loop in the
WM_INITDIALOG handler might leave firstpath==NULL. In fact this can't
happen because the input data to that loop is largely static and we
know what it looks like, but it doesn't seem unreasonable to add an
assertion anyway, to keep static checkers happy and as an explanatory
quasi-comment for humans.
Our config boxes are constructed using the CreateDialog() API
function, rather than the modal DialogBox(). CreateDialog() is not
that different from CreateWindow(), so windows created with it don't
appear on the screen automatically; MSDN says that they must be shown
via ShowWindow(), just like non-dialog windows have to be. But we
weren't doing that at any point!
So how was our config box ever getting displayed at all? Apparently by
sheer chance, it turns out. The handler for a selection change in the
tree view, which has to delete a whole panel of controls and creates a
different set, surrounds that procedure with some WM_SETREDRAW calls
and an InvalidateRect(), to prevent flicker while lots of changes were
being made. And the creation of the _first_ panelful of controls, at
dialog box setup, was done by simply selecting an item in the treeview
and expecting that handler to be recursively called. And it appears
that calling WM_SETREDRAW(TRUE) and then InvalidateRect was
undocumentedly having an effect equivalent to the ShowWindow() we
should have called, so that we never noticed the latter was missing.
But a recent Vista update (all reports implicate KB3057839) has caused
that not to work any more: on an updated Vista machine, in some
desktop configurations, it seems that any attempt to fiddle with
WM_SETREDRAW during dialog setup can leave the dialog box in a really
unhelpful invisible state - the window is _physically there_ (you can
see its taskbar entry, and the mouse pointer changes as you move over
where its edit boxes are), but 100% transparent.
So now we're doing something a bit more sensible. The first panelful
of controls is created directly by the WM_INITDIALOG handler, rather
than recursing into code that wasn't really designed to run at setup
time. To be on the safe side, that handler for treeview selection
change is also disabled until the WM_INITDIALOG handler has finished
(like we already did with the WM_COMMAND handler), so that we can be
sure of not accidentally messing about with WM_SETREDRAW at all during
setup. And at the end of setup, we show the window in the sensible
way, by a docs-approved call to ShowWindow().
This appears (on the one machine I've so far tested it on) to fix the
Vista invisible-window issue, and also it should be more API-compliant
and hence safer in future.

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.

Conflicts:
pageant.c
Cherry-picker's notes: the conflict was because the original commit
also added a use of the same feature in the centralised Pageant code,
which doesn't exist on this branch. Also I had to remove 'const' from
the type of the second parameter to wrap_send_port_open(), since this
branch hasn't had the same extensive const-fixing as master.
The last use of it, to store the contents of the saved session name
edit box, was removed nearly two years ago in svn r9923 and replaced
by ctrl_alloc_with_free. The mechanism has been unused ever since
then, and I suspect any further uses of it would be a bad idea for the
same reasons, so let's get rid of it.

I had set up an event object for signalling incoming connections to

listening pipe, I deleted the event object without also cancelling
that foreign-event handle, so that winhandl.c would potentially call
the callback for a destroyed object.
(cherry picked from commit 6f241cef2c)
This was an old bug, fixed around 0.59, which apparently regressed
when I rewrote the main event loop using the toplevel_callback
mechanism.
Investigation just now suggests that it has to do with my faulty
assumption that Windows PeekMessage would deliver messages in its
message queue in FIFO order (i.e. that the thing calling itself a
message queue is actually a _queue_). In fact my WM_NETEVENT seems to
like to jump the queue, so that once a steady stream of them starts
arriving, we never do anything else in the main event loop (except
deal with handles).
Worked around in a simple and slightly bodgy way, namely, we don't
stop looping on PeekMessage and run our toplevel callbacks until we've
either run out of messages completely or else seen at least one that
_isn't_ a WM_NETEVENT. That way we should reliably interleave NETEVENT
processing with processing of other stuff.

The general plan is that if PuTTY knows a host key for a server, it
should preferentially ask for the same type of key so that there's some
chance of actually getting the same key again. This should mean that
when a server (or PuTTY) adds a new host key type, PuTTY doesn't
gratuitously switch to that key type and then warn the user about an
unrecognised key.
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

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.
The menu options and radio buttons for key type were not consistently
setting each other when selected: in particular, selecting from the
menu did not cause the ED25519 radio button to be either set or unset
when that would have been appropriate.
Looks as if I failed to catch in code review the fact that we should
have _one_ call to each of CheckRadioButton and CheckMenuRadioItem,
and they should both have the right 'first' and 'last' parameters
Having found a lot of unfixed constness issues in recent development,
I thought perhaps it was time to get proactive, so I compiled the
whole codebase with -Wwrite-strings. That turned up a huge load of
const problems, which I've fixed in this commit: the Unix build now
goes cleanly through with -Wwrite-strings, and the Windows build is as
close as I could get it (there are some lingering issues due to
occasional Windows API functions like AcquireCredentialsHandle not
having the right constness).
Notable fallout beyond the purely mechanical changing of types:
- the stuff saved by cmdline_save_param() is now explicitly
dupstr()ed, and freed in cmdline_run_saved.
- I couldn't make both string arguments to cmdline_process_param()
const, because it intentionally writes to one of them in the case
where it's the argument to -pw (in the vain hope of being at least
slightly friendly to 'ps'), so elsewhere I had to temporarily
dupstr() something for the sake of passing it to that function
- I had to invent a silly parallel version of const_cmp() so I could
pass const string literals in to lookup functions.
- stripslashes() in pscp.c and psftp.c has the annoying strchr nature
The ec_name_to_curve and ec_curve_to_name functions shouldn't really
have had to exist at all: whenever any part of the PuTTY codebase
starts using sshecc.c, it's starting from an ssh_signkey or ssh_kex
pointer already found by some other means. So if we make sure not to
lose that pointer, we should never need to do any string-based lookups
to find the curve we want, and conversely, when we need to know the
name of our curve or our algorithm, we should be able to look it up as
a straightforward const char * starting from the algorithm pointer.
This commit cleans things up so that that is indeed what happens. The
ssh_signkey and ssh_kex structures defined in sshecc.c now have
'extra' fields containing pointers to all the necessary stuff;
ec_name_to_curve and ec_curve_to_name have been completely removed;
struct ec_curve has a string field giving the curve's name (but only
for those curves which _have_ a name exposed in the wire protocol,
i.e. the three NIST ones); struct ec_key keeps a pointer to the
ssh_signkey it started from, and uses that to remember the algorithm
name rather than reconstructing it from the curve. And I think I've
got rid of all the ad-hockery scattered around the code that switches
on curve->fieldBits or manually constructs curve names using stuff
like sprintf("nistp%d"); the only remaining switch on fieldBits
(necessary because that's the UI for choosing a curve in PuTTYgen) is
at least centralised into one place in sshecc.c.
One user-visible result is that the format of ed25519 host keys in the
registry has changed: there's now no curve name prefix on them,
because I think it's not really right to make up a name to use. So any
early adopters who've been using snapshot PuTTY in the last week will
be inconvenienced; sorry about that.
All the name strings in ssh_cipher, ssh_mac, ssh_hash, ssh_signkey
point to compile-time string literals, hence should obviously be const
char *.
Most of these const-correctness patches are just a mechanical job of
adding a 'const' in the one place you need it right now, and then
chasing the implications through the code adding further consts until
it compiles. But this one has actually shown up a bug: the 'algorithm'
output parameter in ssh2_userkey_loadpub was sometimes returning a
pointer to a string literal, and sometimes a pointer to dynamically
allocated memory, so callers were forced to either sometimes leak
memory or sometimes free a bad thing. Now it's consistently
dynamically allocated, and should be freed everywhere too.
Adding an extra radio button to the key-type selector caused it to
wrap on to another line and push the bottom of the containing control
box down off the bottom of the window.
In the long term, should more public key formats continue to appear,
we'll probably have to replace the radio buttons with something more
extensible like a drop-down list. For the moment, though, I've fixed
it by just reducing the space per radio button to bring all five
controls back on to the same line.
To fit the text into the smaller space, I also removed the 'SSH-2'
prefix on each key type, which ought to be unnecessary these days
since SSH-2 is a well established default. Only the SSH-1 RSA key type
is still labelled with an SSH version. (And I've moved it to the far
end rather than the start of the line, while I'm here.)
There were ad-hoc functions for fingerprinting a bare key blob in both
cmdgen.c and pageant.c, not quite doing the same thing. Also, every
SSH-2 public key algorithm in the code base included a dedicated
fingerprint() method, which is completely pointless since SSH-2 key
fingerprints are computed in an algorithm-independent way (just hash
the standard-format public key blob), so each of those methods was
just duplicating the work of the public_blob() method with a less
general output mechanism.
Now sshpubk.c centrally provides an ssh2_fingerprint_blob() function
that does all the real work, plus an ssh2_fingerprint() function that
wraps it and deals with calling public_blob() to get something to
fingerprint. And the fingerprint() method has been completely removed
from ssh_signkey and all its implementations, and good riddance.
There was a fair amount of duplication between Windows and Unix
PuTTYgen, and some confusion over writing things to FILE * and
formatting them internally into strings. I think all the public-key
output code now lives in sshpubk.c, and there's only one copy of the
code to generate each format.
I've now centralised into pageant.c all the logic about trying to load
keys of any type, with no passphrase or with the passphrases used in
previous key-loading actions or with a new user-supplied passphrase,
whether we're the main Pageant process ourself or are talking to
another one as a client. The only part of that code remaining in
winpgnt.c is the user interaction via dialog boxes, which of course is
the part that will need to be done differently on other platforms.
When I implemented reading and writing of the new format a couple of
weeks ago, I kept them strictly separate in the UI, so you have to ask
for the format you want when exporting. But in fact this is silly,
because not every key type can be saved in both formats, and OpenSSH
itself has the policy of using the old format for key types it can
handle, unless specifically asked to use the new one.
So I've now arranged that the key file format enum has three values
for OpenSSH: PEM, NEW and AUTO. Files being loaded are identified as
either PEM or NEW, which describe the two physical file formats. But
exporting UIs present either AUTO or NEW, where AUTO is the virtual
format meaning 'save in the old format if possible, otherwise the new
one'.
The last use of it, to store the contents of the saved session name
edit box, was removed nearly two years ago in svn r9923 and replaced
by ctrl_alloc_with_free. The mechanism has been unused ever since
then, and I suspect any further uses of it would be a bad idea for the
same reasons, so let's get rid of it.
Now it actually logs all its requests and responses, the fingerprints
of keys mentioned in all messages, and so on.
I've also added the -v option, which causes Pageant in any mode to
direct that logging information to standard error. In --debug mode,
however, the logging output goes to standard output instead (because
when debugging, that information changes from a side effect to the
thing you actually wanted in the first place :-).
An internal tweak: the logging functions now take a va_list rather
than an actual variadic argument list, so that I can pass it through
several functions.
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.
It's all very well for these two different formats to share a type
code as long as we're only loading them and not saving, but as soon as
we need to save one or the other, we'll need different type codes
after all.
This commit introduces the openssh_new_write() function, but for the
moment, it always returns failure.
PuTTY now uses the updated version of Diffie-Hellman group exchange,
except for a few old OpenSSH versions which Darren Tucker reports only
support the old version.

If (say) a read handle returns EOF, and its gotdata function responds
by calling handle_free(), then we want the handle to have already had
its defunct flag set so that the handle can be destroyed. Otherwise
handle_free will set the 'done' flag to ask the subthread to
terminate, and then sit and wait for it to say it's done so -
forgetting that it signalled termination already by returning EOF, and
hence will not be responding to that signal.
Ditto for write errors on write handles, though that should happen
less often.
The code for cleaning up handle structures works by the main thread
asking the per-handle subthread to shut down by means of setting its
'done' flag, and then once the subthread signals back through its
event object that it's done so, the main thread frees all its
resources and removes the event object from the list of things being
checked in the program's event loop.
But read threads were not sending back that final event acknowledging
a request to shut down, so their event objects were never being
cleaned up.
Bug spotted by Ronald Weiss.
We were checking the return value of CreateThread for validity, but
not keeping it to free afterwards if it _was_ valid. Also, we weren't
closing ctx->event in the valid case either. Patch due to Tim Kosse.
I don't think anyone has ever actually called it that, colloquially
_or_ formally, and if anyone ever did (in a bug report, say) I'd
probably have to stop and think to work out what they meant. It's
universally called Plink, and should be officially so as well :-)
I'm not actually sure why we've always had back ends notify ldisc of
changes to echo/edit settings by giving ldisc_send(ldisc,NULL,0,0) a
special meaning, instead of by having a separate dedicated notify
function with its own prototype and parameter set. Coverity's recent
observation that the two kinds of call don't even have the same
requirements on the ldisc (particularly, whether ldisc->term can be
NULL) makes me realise that it's really high time I separated the two
conceptually different operations into actually different functions.
While I'm here, I've renamed the confusing ldisc_update() function
which that special operation ends up feeding to, because it's not
actually a function applying to an ldisc - it applies to a front end.
So ldisc_send(ldisc,NULL,0,0) is now ldisc_echoedit_update(ldisc), and
that in turn figures out the current echo/edit settings before passing
them on to frontend_echoedit_update(). I think that should be clearer.
If (Msg)WaitForMultipleObjects returns WAIT_TIMEOUT, we expect 'next'
to have been initialised. This can occur without having called
run_timers(), if a toplevel callback was pending, so we can't expect
run_timers to have reliably initialised 'next'.
I'm not actually convinced this could have come up in either of the
affected programs (Windows PSFTP and Plink), due to the list of things
toplevel callbacks are currently used for, but it certainly wants
fixing anyway for the future.
Spotted by Coverity.
Pageant's list box needs its tab stops reorganised a little for new
tendencies in string length, and also has to cope with there only
being one prefix space in the output of the new string fingerprint
function. PuTTYgen needs to squash more radio buttons on to one line.
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.
The OpenSSH key importer and exporter were structured in the
assumption that the strong commonality of format between OpenSSH RSA
and DSA keys would persist across all key types. Moved code around so
it's now clear that this is a peculiarity of those _particular_ two
key types which will not apply to others we add alongside them.
Also, a boolean 'is_dsa' in winpgen.c has been converted into a more
sensible key type enumeration, and the individually typed key pointers
have been piled on top of each other in a union.
This is a pure refactoring change which should have no functional
effect.
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.

The winegcc hack I use for my Coverity builds is currently using a
version of wincrypt.h that's missing a couple of constants I use.
Ensure they're defined by hand, but (just in case I defined them
_wrong_) also provide a command-line define so I can do that only in
the case of Coverity builds.

This option is available from the command line as '-hostkey', and is
also configurable through the GUI. When enabled, it completely
replaces all of the automated host key management: the server's host
key will be checked against the manually configured list, and the
connection will be allowed or disconnected on that basis, and the host
key store in the registry will not be either consulted or updated.
The main aim is to provide a means of automatically running Plink,
PSCP or PSFTP deep inside Windows services where HKEY_CURRENT_USER
isn't available to have stored the right host key in. But it also
permits you to specify a list of multiple host keys, which means a
second use case for the same mechanism will probably be round-robin
DNS names that select one of several servers with different host keys.
Host keys can be specified as the standard MD5 fingerprint or as an
SSH-2 base64 blob, and are canonicalised on input. (The base64 blob is
more unwieldy, especially with Windows command-line length limits, but
provides a means of specifying the _whole_ public key in case you
don't trust MD5. I haven't bothered to provide an analogous mechanism
for SSH-1, on the basis that anyone worrying about MD5 should have
stopped using SSH-1 already!)

A user points out that the person who writes a REG_SZ into the
registry can choose whether or not to NUL-terminate it properly, and
if they don't, RegQueryValueEx will retrieve it without the NUL. So if
someone does that to PuTTY's saved session data, then PuTTY may
retrieve nonsense strings.
Arguably this is the fault of whoever tampered with the saved session
data without doing it the same way we would have, but even so, there
ought to be some handling at our end other than silently returning the
wrong data, and putting the NUL back on seems more sensible than
complaining loudly.

The IDM_RECONF handler unconditionally calls ldisc_configure to
reconfigure the line discipline for the new echo/edit settings, but in
fact ldisc can be NULL if no session is currently active. (Indeed, the
very next line acknowledges this, by testing it for NULL before
calling ldisc_send!) Thanks to Alexander Wong for the report.

We now expect that after the server has sent us CHANNEL_CLOSE, we
should not expect to see any replies to our outstanding channel
requests, and conversely after we have sent CHANNEL_CLOSE we avoid
sending any reply to channel requests from the server. This was the
consensus among implementors discussing the problem on ietf-ssh in
April 2014.
To cope with current OpenSSH's (and perhaps other servers we don't
know about yet) willingness to send request replies after
CHANNEL_CLOSE, I introduce a bug-compatibility flag which is detected
for every OpenSSH version up to and including the current 6.6 - but
not beyond, since https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1818
promises that 6.7 will also implement the new consensus behaviour.

Philippe Maupertuis reports that on one particular machine, Windows
causes the named pipe created by upstream PuTTY to be owned by the
Administrators group SID rather than the user's SID, which defeats the
security check in the downstream PuTTY. No other machine has been
reported to do this, but nonetheless it's clearly a thing that can
sometimes happen, so we now work around it by specifying explicitly in
the security descriptor for the pipe that its owner should be the user
SID rather than any other SID we might have the right to use.

On Windows (X mouse reporting of the mouse wheel isn't currently done
by the Unix front end, though I'm shortly about to fix that too) a
mouse wheel event is translated into a virtual button, and we send
both a press and a release of that button to terminal.c, which encodes
both in X mouse reporting escape sequences and passes them on to the
server. This isn't consistent with what xterm does - scroll-wheel
events are encoded _like_ button presses, but differ semantically in
that they don't have matching releases. So we're updating to match
xterm.

There's been a long-standing FIXME in Windows's sk_newlistener which
says that in IPv6 mode, an explicit source address (e.g. from a

Now it's honoured if possible.

Both GUI PuTTY front ends have a piece of logic whereby a string is
interpreted as host:port if there's _one_ colon in it, but if there's
more than one colon then it's assumed to be an IPv6 literal with no
trailing port number. This permits the PuTTY command line to take
strings such as 'host', 'host:22' or '[::1]:22', but also cope with a
bare v6 literal such as '::1'.
This logic is also required in the two Plink front ends and in the
processing of CONF_loghost for host key indexing in ssh.c, but was
missing in all those places. Add it.
[originally from svn r10121]
I've gone through everywhere we handle host names / addresses (on
command lines, in PuTTY config, in port forwarding, in X display
names, in host key storage...) and tried to make them handle IPv6
literals sensibly, by using the host_str* functions I introduced in my
previous commit. Generally it's now OK to use a bracketed IPv6 literal
anywhere a hostname might have been valid; in a few cases where no
ambiguity exists (e.g. no :port suffix is permitted anyway)
unbracketed IPv6 literals are also acceptable.

Daniel Meidlinger reports that at least one Windows machine which is
not obviously otherwise misconfigured will respond to our
SetEntriesInAcl call with odd errors like ERROR_NONE_MAPPED or
ERROR_TRUSTED_RELATIONSHIP_FAILURE. This is apparently to do with
failure to convert the names "EVERYONE" and "CURRENT_USER" used in the
ACL specification to SIDs. (Or perhaps only one of them is the problem
- I didn't investigate in that direction.)
If we instead construct a fully SID-based ACL, using the well-known
world SID in place of EVERYONE and calling our existing get_user_sid
routine in place of CURRENT_USER, he reports that the problem goes
away, so let's do that instead.
While I'm here, I've slightly simplified the function prototype of
make_private_security_descriptor(), by turning 'networksid' into an
internal static that we can reuse in subsequent calls once we've set
it up. (Mostly because I didn't fancy adding another two pointless
parameters at every call site for the two new SIDs.)

This will be useful if someone gets a mysterious Windows error on a

XP doesn't have it, and I think having connection sharing work without
its privacy enhancement is better than having it not work at all.
[originally from svn r10087]
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 was only actually used in X11 and port forwarding, to find internal
state structures given only the Socket that ssh.c held. So now that
that lookup has been reworked to be the sensible way round,
private_ptr is no longer used for anything and can be removed.
[originally from svn r10075]
This commit adds two new support modules, winnpc.c and winnps.c, which
deal respectively with being a client and server of a Windows named
pipe (which, in spite of what Unix programmers will infer from that
name, is actually closer to Windows's analogue of a Unix-domain
socket). Each one provides a fully featured Socket wrapper around the
hairy Windows named pipe API, so that the rest of the code base should
be able to use these interchangeably with ordinary sockets and hardly
notice the difference.
As part of this work, I've introduced a mechanism in winhandl.c to
permit it to store handles of event objects on behalf of other Windows
support modules and deal with passing them to applications' main event
loops as necessary. (Perhaps it would have been cleaner to split
winhandl.c into an event-object tracking layer analogous to uxsel, and
the handle management which is winhandl.c's proper job, but this is
less disruptive for the present.)
[originally from svn r10069]
The mechanism for constructing a new connection-type Socket when a
listening one receives an incoming connection previously worked by
passing a platform-specific 'OSSocket' type to the plug_accepting
function, which would then call sk_register to wrap it with a proper
Socket instance. This is less flexible than ideal, because it presumes
that only one kind of OS object might ever need to be turned into a
Socket. So I've replaced OSSocket throughout the code base with a pair
of parameters consisting of a function pointer and a context such that
passing the latter to the former returns the appropriate Socket; this
will permit different classes of listening Socket to pass different
function pointers.
In deference to the reality that OSSockets tend to be small integers
or pointer-sized OS handles, I've made the context parameter an
int/pointer union that can hold either of those directly, rather than
the usual approach of making it a plain 'void *' and requiring a
context structure to be dynamically allocated every time.
[originally from svn r10068]
That's been a FIXME in the code for ages, because it's difficult to
get winhandl.c to stop an already-started read from a handle (since
the read is a blocking system call running in a separate thread). But
I now realise it isn't absolutely necessary to do so - you can just
buffer one lot of data from winhandl and _then_ tell it to stop.
[originally from svn r10067]
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.

A couple of users report that my recent reworking of the Windows
top-level message loop has led to messages occasionally being lost,
and MsgWaitForMultipleObjects blocking when it ought to have been
called with a zero timeout. I haven't been able to reproduce this
myself, but according to one reporter, PeekMessage(PM_NOREMOVE) is
effective at checking for a non-empty message queue in a way that
GetQueueStatus is not. Switch to using that instead. Thanks to Eric
Flumerfelt for debugging and testing help.
[originally from svn r10057]
Jochen Erwied points out that once you've used PeekMessage to remove
_one_ message from the message queue, MsgWaitForMultipleObjects will
consider the whole queue to have been 'read', or at least looked at
and deemed uninteresting, and so it will block until a further message
comes in. Hence, my change in r10040 which stops us from looping on
PeekMessage until the queue is empty has the effect of causing the
rest of the message queue not to be acted on until a new message comes
in to unblock it. Fix by checking if the queue is nonempty in advance
of calling MsgWaitForMultipleObjects, and if so, giving it a zero
timeout just as we do if there's a pending toplevel callback.

Martin Prikryl helpfully points out that when I revamped the socket
error mechanism using toplevel callbacks, I also accidentally passed

Unix GUI programs should not say 'Fatal Error' in the message box
title, and Plink should not destroy its logging context as a side
effect of printing a non-fatal error. Both appear to have been due to
inattentive cut and paste from the pre-existing fatal error functions.
[originally from svn r10044]
This change attempts to reinstate as a universal property something
which was sporadically true of the ad-hockery that came before
toplevel callbacks: that if there's a _very long_ queue of things to
be done through the callback mechanism, the doing of them will be
interleaved with re-checks of other event sources, which might (e.g.)
cause a flag to be set which makes the next callback decide not to do
anything after all.
[originally from svn r10040]
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]
Again, I've removed the special-purpose ad-hockery from the assorted
front end message loops that dealt with deferred handling of socket
errors, and instead uxnet.c and winnet.c arrange that for themselves
by calling the new general top-level callback mechanism.
[originally from svn r10023]
Instead of setting a must_close_session flag and having special code
in the message loop to check it, we'll schedule the call to

I've removed the ad-hoc front-end bodgery in the Windows and GTK ports
to arrange for term_paste to be called at the right moments, and
instead, terminal.c itself deals with knowing when to send the next
chunk of pasted data using a combination of timers and the new
top-level callback mechanism.
As a happy side effect, it's now all in one place so I can actually
understand what it's doing! It turns out that what all that confusing
code was up to is: send a line of pasted data, and delay sending the
next line until either a CR or LF is returned from the server
(typically indicating that the pasted text has been received and
echoed) or 450ms elapse, whichever comes first.
[originally from svn r10020]
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.

PuTTY does not trim a colon suffix off the hostname if it contains
_more than one_ colon. This allows IPv6 literals to be entered.

this at least removes a regression over 0.62.)

First, make absolute times unsigned. This means that it's safe to
depend on their overflow behaviour (which is undefined for signed
integers). This requires a little extra care in handling comparisons,
but I think I've correctly adjusted them all.
Second, functions registered with schedule_timer() are guaranteed to be
called with precisely the time that was returned by schedule_timer().
Thus, it's only necessary to check these values for equality rather than
doing risky range checks, so do that.

wrong, but this is a good start.

The previous platform-dependent ifdefs, switching between a system
which tried to cope with spurious callbacks (which I'd observed on
Windows) and one which tried to cope with system clock jumps (which
can happen on Unix, if you use gettimeofday) have been completely
removed, and replaced with a much simpler approach which just copes
with system clock jumps by triggering any timers immediately.
None of the resulting effects should be catastrophic (the worst thing
might be the waste of CPU in a spurious rekey, but as long as the
system clock isn't jumping around _all_ the time that's hardly
critical) and in any case the Unix port has had a long-standing oddity
involving occasional lockups if pterm or PuTTY runs for too long,
which hopefully this should replace with a much less bad failure mode.
And the code is much simpler, which is not to be sneezed at.

in both directions, except in frontends with no mechanism for sending
explicit EOF (e.g. interactive terminal windows) or backends which are
basically always used for interactive sessions so it's unlikely that
an application would be depending on independent EOF (telnet, rlogin).
EOF should now never accidentally be sent while there's still buffered
data to go out before it. (May help fix 'portfwd-corrupt', and also I
noticed recently that the ssh main session channel can accidentally
have MSG_EOF sent before the output bufchain is clear, leading to
embarrassment when it subsequently does send the output).

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.

information about where to put items that aren't mentioned in the
saved configuration. So far the only nontrivial use I've made of this
facility is to default to placing KEX_RSA just above KEX_WARN in the
absence of any other information, which should fix
'ssh2-rsa-kex-pref'.
While I'm here I've rewritten wprefs() on general principles to remove
the needless length limit, since I was touching it anyway. The length
limit is still in gprefs (but I've lengthened it just in case).

code (as introduced in r9043), so that it uses the user SID rather
than the default SID.
This does change the access-control model, in that a Pageant running
with administrator privilege will now serve keys to an unprivileged
PuTTY running as the same user who started Pageant. Owen and I think
this isn't a problem (in particular, it will still not serve keys to a
_different_ user).
More importantly, making the Pageant client and server code work the
same way means that PuTTY and Pageant can still talk to each other
when UAC is turned off, which we've had several reports of r9043
having broken.

rectangle into smaller ones: it doesn't work any more, since the new
variable-pitch code can now call general_textout() with a larger
clipping rectangle than the text it's meant to be displaying. Instead,
general_textout() now uses the same semantics as the next loop up in
do_text_internal(): the first piece of text it displays uses the
opacity setting passed in, which blanks the entire clipping rectangle
if necessary, and then subsequent overlays are non-opaque. And the
same clipping rectangle is used throughout.

array to ExtTextOut:
- move it inside the new big loop (this should fix a potential bug
whereby the DBCS handling altered some elements of it but the loop
did not actually step along it)
- initialise it more sensibly
- rename it to lpDx rather than IpDx, since as far as I can tell the
latter name was derived from a misreading of the former in the
Windows API docs.
[originally from svn r9066]
pass null lpDx, because general_textout depends on it being filled in.
Instead we null it out in the calls to subroutines _from_
general_textout.

Done in much the same way as it is in the GTK front end: the character
cell width is determined using the font's digits (which seems to give
generally not-too-offensive spacing in most cases, at the expense of
Ms and Ws typically overhanging a bit into adjacent cells) and each
character is centred in its cell. Overhangs never leave permanent
droppings on the window, because the existing work done in r5003
handles them just fine even in this stressful scenario.
There's a hacky new checkbox in the Appearance panel to make
variable-pitch fonts appear in the font selector (they still don't by
default, because I still think it's _usually_ not What You Want); the
checkbox state is not actually stored as part of a saved session, but
it should be automatically ticked when reloading a session that's got
a variable pitch font selected.
(I'm half-expecting a potential flurry of requests for this feature in
the wake of http://xkcd.com/840/ , so I thought I'd pre-empt them :-)

I'm not sure whether I broke this in the recent revamp or whether it
was always broken, but: transitions in and out of full-screen mode
work by first maximising or restoring the window, which triggers a
WM_SIZE, whose handler then fiddles with the window style to disable
or re-enable all the furniture, which in turn triggers a recursive
WM_SIZE. The trouble is, after returning from the handler for the
inner WM_SIZE, the rest of the outer handler runs, and its client area
size is now out of date.
So I've added a flag which is set when a resize is handled 'properly',
so that after returning from the inner WM_SIZE handler the outer one
knows not to try to redo badly work that's already been done well.

restoring a maximised window.
Failure to do this was noticeable in the following scenario (again
using Aero UI enhancements):
1. resize window using topmost resize handle, and move pointer to top
of screen which 'maximises' the window vertically
2. now maximise the window properly using the maximise button in top
right
3. now restore. Notepad restores to its position before step 1,
because Aero remembers that position for the purpose, but PuTTY
thinks it knows better. Only now it doesn't any more.
[originally from svn r9041]
Firstly, maximise and restore events were expected never to occur
during an interactive resize process (i.e. between WM_ENTERSIZEMOVE
and WM_EXITSIZEMOVE), but in fact Aero now allows this to happen if
you move the pointer to the top of the screen while dragging the
window.
Secondly, plain old WM_SIZE events were expected never to occur
_outside_ interactive resizes, but Aero permits that too (e.g.
Windows-left and Windows-right), and also third-party window
repositioning tools will send these.

registry-stored MIT KfW install location for KfW) rather than using
the risky default DLL search path; I've therefore also added an
option to manually specify a GSS DLL we haven't heard of (which
should in principle Just Work provided it supports proper GSS-API as
specified in the RFC). The same option exists on Unix too, because
it seemed like too useful an idea to reserve to Windows. In
addition, GSSAPI is now documented, and also (unfortunately) its GUI
configuration has been moved out into a sub-subpanel on the grounds
that it was too big to fit in Auth.

reorganises the GSSAPI support so that it handles alternative

now talk to MIT Kerberos for Windows instead of being limited to

(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.

plink did not cope gracefully with this -- it was not possible to override that
hostname on the command line (attempts at doing so would be treated as part of
the remote command).
Fix this by applying the principle of r7265: if the user didn't explicitly
specify that they wanted to launch the hostname in the default (for instance
with '-load "Default Settings"', we assume they don't want to, and such a
hostname doesn't count when deciding whether to treat a non-option argument as
hostname or command.

to a Unix-domain socket. This typically works fine when PuTTY is run on the
same machine as the X server, but it's broken multi-hop X forwarding through
OpenSSH; when OpenSSH creates a proxy X server "localhost:10", it only listens
on TCP, not on a Unix-domain socket.
Instead, when deciding on the details of the display, we actively probe to see
if there's a Unix-domain socket we can use instead, and only use it if it's
there, falling back to the specified IP "localhost" if not.
Independently, when looking for local auth details in Xauthority for a
"localhost" TCP display, we prefer a matching Unix-domain entry, but will fall
back to an IP "localhost" entry (which would be unusual, but we don't trust a
Windows X server not to do it) -- this is a generalisation of the special case
added in r2538 (but removed in r8305, as the automatic upgrade masked the need
for it).
(This is now done in platform-independent code, so a side-effect is that
get_hostname() is now part of the networking abstraction on all platforms.)

OVERLAPPED structure in output threads, as we already do for input
threads. This apparently sorts out a hanging issue with serial ports
when trying to do simultaneous read and write, because (GJV says,
and it sounds plausible to me) in the absence of that event object
Windows signals the file handle itself to notify GetOverlappedResult
that it can return - and since the file handle might be being
signalled by a read operation instead, that leads to ambiguity.
Using an explicit event object in both directions means Windows
always knows which way the data is going.
Also a trivial fix in handle_output_new(), which was referencing the
wrong element of a union due to a copy and paste error. (Since the
result was address-taken and cast to void *, this wasn't a
functional error, but it was conceptually wrong.)

case of double-width text (ESC # 3, ESC # 4, ESC # 6), because the
string passed to it was not truncated to the same width as the
clipping rectangle. (In fact, it _can't_ reliably be, in the case
where the window width is odd.) So instead we just assert that we
managed to _at least_ fill the clipping rectangle, not that we
exactly filled it.
The problem is easily reproduced by sending ESC # 8 (fill the screen
with Es) followed by ESC # 3. It doesn't typically happen, though,
if you _manually_ fill the screen with Es, because in that case
PuTTY's terminal buffer ends up being filled with CSET_ACP | 'E' or
similar, which means that general_textout() never gets called
because one of the other branches of do_text_internal() does the
work instead. ESC # 8 will fill the terminal buffer with genuine
_Unicode_ 'E' characters, which exercises the failing code path.

arbitrary choice of the first returned address in functions like

lookup returned a local and a non-local address?), but I think they
were functionally just as dubious beforehand and all this change has
