Subject: [committed 1/2] Propagate GLIBC_TUNABLES in setxid binaries
Date: Tue, 3 Oct 2023 13:08:10 -0400
GLIBC_TUNABLES scrubbing happens earlier than envvar scrubbing and some
tunables are required to propagate past setxid boundary, like their
env_alias. Rely on tunable scrubbing to clean out GLIBC_TUNABLES like
before, restoring behaviour in glibc 2.37 and earlier.

Subject: [committed 2/2] tunables: Terminate if end of input is reached
(CVE-2023-4911)
Date: Tue, 3 Oct 2023 13:08:11 -0400
The string parsing routine may end up writing beyond bounds of tunestr
if the input tunable string is malformed, of the form name=name=val.
This gets processed twice, first as name=name=val and next as name=val,
resulting in tunestr being name=name=val:name=val, thus overflowing
tunestr.
Terminate the parsing loop at the first instance itself so that tunestr
does not overflow.
This also fixes up tst-env-setuid-tunables to actually handle failures
correct and add new tests to validate the fix for this CVE.
