This commit is the 3/3 part of the fix for the following security
vulnerability:
- CVE-2021-42076 DoS via excess length messages
The issue has been reported by Matthias Gerstner <mgerstner@suse.de>.
This fixes#976, fixes#974, fixes#444.
On Windows the standard stream open() functions expect bytes encoded in
current system encoding, not UTF8. Since we're dealing with UTF8
throughout the application this results in wrong paths being passed and
failure to open files. As a solution, we convert the paths to UTF16 via
the WCHAR character type and use the special Windows-specific overloads
of open() functions.
Many tools strip trailing whitespaces by default, so after editing a file with
whitespace errors we end up with a bunch of unrelated hunks that need to be
reverted locally.
This could be fixed by configuring each tool to not do this (at least for the
barrier repo), or, simpler, we just sed the problem away and make barrier
whitespace-compliant.
sed commands run:
sed -i 's/[ \t]\+$//' **/*.(cpp|h) **/*CMakeLists.txt
Verified with git diff --ignore-space-change, this shows the empty diff.
Current code base don't use IEventQueue::isEmpty() method.
Remove it to simplify IEventQueue API and to remove confusion with
IEventQueueBuffer with same name.
The IEventQueueBuffer::isEmpty() and all its implementations kept unchanged
unixes when they are killed from the GUI with QProcess's close(). the
stdin stream is going completely unused (though the stdout stream is
not) so use stdin to send a shutdown command. this solution avoids all
the nastiness and overhead of using shared memory, mutexes, condvars,
etc. just to communicate "stop" from one process to another
