+ [Impact]
+
The current version in 16.10 universe is 1.0.7 which has two known
vulnerabilities (CVE-2016-10099 and CVE-2016-10100) fixed in upstream
version 1.0.9 (released ~6 months ago). The current upstream version is
1.0.10 (released ~3 months ago) and contains various other bugfixes.
+
+ [CHANGELOG]
+ Version 1.0.10 (2017-02-13)
+ ---------------------------
+
+ Bug fixes:
+
+ - Manifest timestamps are now monotonically increasing,
+ this fixes issues when the system clock jumps backwards
+ or is set inconsistently across computers accessing the same repository, #2115
+ - Fixed testing regression in 1.0.10rc1 that lead to a hard dependency on
+ py.test >= 3.0, #2112
+
+ New features:
+
+ - "key export" can now generate a printable HTML page with both a QR code and
+ a human-readable "paperkey" representation (and custom text) through the
+ ``--qr-html`` option.
+
+ The same functionality is also available through `paperkey.html <paperkey.html>`_,
+ which is the same HTML page generated by ``--qr-html``. It works with existing
+ "key export" files and key files.
+
+ Other changes:
+
+ - docs:
+
+ - language clarification - "borg create --one-file-system" option does not respect
+ mount points, but considers different file systems instead, #2141
+ - setup.py: build_api: sort file list for determinism
+
+ Version 1.0.10rc1 (2017-01-29)
+ ------------------------------
+
+ Bug fixes:
+
+ - borg serve: fix transmission data loss of pipe writes, #1268
+ This affects only the cygwin platform (not Linux, BSD, OS X).
+ - Avoid triggering an ObjectiveFS bug in xattr retrieval, #1992
+ - When running out of buffer memory when reading xattrs, only skip the
+ current file, #1993
+ - Fixed "borg upgrade --tam" crashing with unencrypted repositories. Since
+ :ref:`the issue <tam_vuln>` is not relevant for unencrypted repositories,
+ it now does nothing and prints an error, #1981.
+ - Fixed change-passphrase crashing with unencrypted repositories, #1978
+ - Fixed "borg check repo::archive" indicating success if "archive" does not exist, #1997
+ - borg check: print non-exit-code warning if --last or --prefix aren't fulfilled
+ - fix bad parsing of wrong repo location syntax
+ - create: don't create hard link refs to failed files,
+ mount: handle invalid hard link refs, #2092
+ - detect mingw byte order, #2073
+ - creating a new segment: use "xb" mode, #2099
+ - mount: umount on SIGINT/^C when in foreground, #2082
+
+ Other changes:
+
+ - binary: use fixed AND freshly compiled pyinstaller bootloader, #2002
+ - xattr: ignore empty names returned by llistxattr(2) et al
+ - Enable the fault handler: install handlers for the SIGSEGV, SIGFPE, SIGABRT,
+ SIGBUS and SIGILL signals to dump the Python traceback.
+ - Also print a traceback on SIGUSR2.
+ - borg change-passphrase: print key location (simplify making a backup of it)
+ - officially support Python 3.6 (setup.py: add Python 3.6 qualifier)
+ - tests:
+
+ - vagrant / travis / tox: add Python 3.6 based testing
+ - vagrant: fix openbsd repo, #2042
+ - vagrant: fix the freebsd64 machine, #2037 #2067
+ - vagrant: use python 3.5.3 to build binaries, #2078
+ - vagrant: use osxfuse 3.5.4 for tests / to build binaries
+ vagrant: improve darwin64 VM settings
+ - travis: fix osxfuse install (fixes OS X testing on Travis CI)
+ - travis: require succeeding OS X tests, #2028
+ - travis: use latest pythons for OS X based testing
+ - use pytest-xdist to parallelize testing
+ - fix xattr test race condition, #2047
+ - setup.cfg: fix pytest deprecation warning, #2050
+ - docs:
+
+ - language clarification - VM backup FAQ
+ - borg create: document how to backup stdin, #2013
+ - borg upgrade: fix incorrect title levels
+ - add CVE numbers for issues fixed in 1.0.9, #2106
+ - fix typos (taken from Debian package patch)
+ - remote: include data hexdump in "unexpected RPC data" error message
+ - remote: log SSH command line at debug level
+ - API_VERSION: use numberspaces, #2023
+ - remove .github from pypi package, #2051
+ - add pip and setuptools to requirements file, #2030
+ - SyncFile: fix use of fd object after close (cosmetic)
+ - Manifest.in: simplify, exclude \*.{so,dll,orig}, #2066
+ - ignore posix_fadvise errors in repository.py, #2095
+ (works around issues with docker on ARM)
+ - make LoggedIO.close_segment reentrant, avoid reentrance
+
+
+ Version 1.0.9 (2016-12-20)
+ --------------------------
+
+ Security fixes:
+
+ - A flaw in the cryptographic authentication scheme in Borg allowed an attacker
+ to spoof the manifest. See :ref:`tam_vuln` above for the steps you should
+ take.
+
+ CVE-2016-10099 was assigned to this vulnerability.
+ - borg check: When rebuilding the manifest (which should only be needed very rarely)
+ duplicate archive names would be handled on a "first come first serve" basis, allowing
+ an attacker to apparently replace archives.
+
+ CVE-2016-10100 was assigned to this vulnerability.
+
+ Bug fixes:
+
+ - borg check:
+
+ - rebuild manifest if it's corrupted
+ - skip corrupted chunks during manifest rebuild
+ - fix TypeError in integrity error handler, #1903, #1894
+ - fix location parser for archives with @ char (regression introduced in 1.0.8), #1930
+ - fix wrong duration/timestamps if system clock jumped during a create
+ - fix progress display not updating if system clock jumps backwards
+ - fix checkpoint interval being incorrect if system clock jumps
+
+ Other changes:
+
+ - docs:
+
+ - add python3-devel as a dependency for cygwin-based installation
+ - clarify extract is relative to current directory
+ - FAQ: fix link to changelog
+ - markup fixes
+ - tests:
+
+ - test_get\_(cache|keys)_dir: clean env state, #1897
+ - get back pytest's pretty assertion failures, #1938
+ - setup.py build_usage:
+
+ - fixed build_usage not processing all commands
+ - fixed build_usage not generating includes for debug commands
+
+
+ Version 1.0.9rc1 (2016-11-27)
+ -----------------------------
+
+ Bug fixes:
+
+ - files cache: fix determination of newest mtime in backup set (which is
+ used in cache cleanup and led to wrong "A" [added] status for unchanged
+ files in next backup), #1860.
+
+ - borg check:
+
+ - fix incorrectly reporting attic 0.13 and earlier archives as corrupt
+ - handle repo w/o objects gracefully and also bail out early if repo is
+ *completely* empty, #1815.
+ - fix tox/pybuild in 1.0-maint
+ - at xattr module import time, loggers are not initialized yet
+
+ New features:
+
+ - borg umount <mountpoint>
+ exposed already existing umount code via the CLI api, so users can use it,
+ which is more consistent than using borg to mount and fusermount -u (or
+ umount) to un-mount, #1855.
+ - implement borg create --noatime --noctime, fixes #1853
+
+ Other changes:
+
+ - docs:
+
+ - display README correctly on PyPI
+ - improve cache / index docs, esp. files cache docs, fixes #1825
+ - different pattern matching for --exclude, #1779
+ - datetime formatting examples for {now} placeholder, #1822
+ - clarify passphrase mode attic repo upgrade, #1854
+ - clarify --umask usage, #1859
+ - clarify how to choose PR target branch
+ - clarify prune behavior for different archive contents, #1824
+ - fix PDF issues, add logo, fix authors, headings, TOC
+ - move security verification to support section
+ - fix links in standalone README (:ref: tags)
+ - add link to security contact in README
+ - add FAQ about security
+ - move fork differences to FAQ
+ - add more details about resource usage
+ - tests: skip remote tests on cygwin, #1268
+ - travis:
+
+ - allow OS X failures until the brew cask osxfuse issue is fixed
+ - caskroom osxfuse-beta gone, it's osxfuse now (3.5.3)
+ - vagrant:
+
+ - upgrade OSXfuse / FUSE for macOS to 3.5.3
+ - remove llfuse from tox.ini at a central place
+ - do not try to install llfuse on centos6
+ - fix fuse test for darwin, #1546
+ - add windows virtual machine with cygwin
+ - Vagrantfile cleanup / code deduplication
+
+
+ Version 1.0.8 (2016-10-29)
+ --------------------------
+
+ Bug fixes:
+
+ - RemoteRepository: Fix busy wait in call_many, #940
+
+ New features:
+
+ - implement borgmajor/borgminor/borgpatch placeholders, #1694
+ {borgversion} was already there (full version string). With the new
+ placeholders you can now also get e.g. 1 or 1.0 or 1.0.8.
+
+ Other changes:
+
+ - avoid previous_location mismatch, #1741
+
+ due to the changed canonicalization for relative pathes in PR #1711 / #1655
+ (implement /./ relpath hack), there would be a changed repo location warning
+ and the user would be asked if this is ok. this would break automation and
+ require manual intervention, which is unwanted.
+
+ thus, we automatically fix the previous_location config entry, if it only
+ changed in the expected way, but still means the same location.
+
+ - docs:
+
+ - deployment.rst: do not use bare variables in ansible snippet
+ - add clarification about append-only mode, #1689
+ - setup.py: add comment about requiring llfuse, #1726
+ - update usage.rst / api.rst
+ - repo url / archive location docs + typo fix
+ - quickstart: add a comment about other (remote) filesystems
+
+ - vagrant / tests:
+
+ - no chown when rsyncing (fixes boxes w/o vagrant group)
+ - fix fuse permission issues on linux/freebsd, #1544
+ - skip fuse test for borg binary + fakeroot
+ - ignore security.selinux xattrs, fixes tests on centos, #1735
+
+
+ Version 1.0.8rc1 (2016-10-17)
+ -----------------------------
+
+ Bug fixes:
+
+ - fix signal handling (SIGINT, SIGTERM, SIGHUP), #1620 #1593
+ Fixes e.g. leftover lock files for quickly repeated signals (e.g. Ctrl-C
+ Ctrl-C) or lost connections or systemd sending SIGHUP.
+ - progress display: adapt formatting to narrow screens, do not crash, #1628
+ - borg create --read-special - fix crash on broken symlink, #1584.
+ also correctly processes broken symlinks. before this regressed to a crash
+ (5b45385) a broken symlink would've been skipped.
+ - process_symlink: fix missing backup_io()
+ Fixes a chmod/chown/chgrp/unlink/rename/... crash race between getting
+ dirents and dispatching to process_symlink.
+ - yes(): abort on wrong answers, saying so, #1622
+ - fixed exception borg serve raised when connection was closed before reposiory

+ on Mac OS X (avoids mismatch lib <-> driver), #1619
+
+ New features:
+
+ - add "borg key export" / "borg key import" commands, #1555, so users are able
+ to backup / restore their encryption keys more easily.
+
+ Supported formats are the keyfile format used by borg internally and a
+ special "paper" format with by line checksums for printed backups. For the
+ paper format, the import is an interactive process which checks each line as
+ soon as it is input.
+ - add "borg debug-refcount-obj" to determine a repo objects' referrer counts,
+ #1352
+
+ Other changes:
+
+ - add "borg debug ..." subcommands

+ - remote: change exception message for unexpected RPC data format to indicate
+ dataflow direction.
