Author: avg Date: Tue May 19 14:23:54 2009 New Revision: 192381 URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/192381 Log: find: do not silently disable -L when -delete is used First of all, current behavior is not documented and confusing, and it can be very dangerous in the following sequence: find -L . -type l find -L . -type l -delete (the second line is even suggested by find(1)). Instead simply refuse to proceed when -L and -delete are both used. A descriptive error message is provided. The following command can be safely used to remove broken links: find -L . -type l -print0 | xargs rm -0 To do: update find(1) PR: bin/90687 Obtained from: Anatoli Klassen <anatoli@aksoft.net> Approved by: jhb (mentor) Modified: head/usr.bin/find/function.c Modified: head/usr.bin/find/function.c ============================================================================== --- head/usr.bin/find/function.c Tue May 19 14:10:14 2009 (r192380) +++ head/usr.bin/find/function.c Tue May 19 14:23:54 2009 (r192381) @@ -427,11 +427,13 @@ f_delete(PLAN *plan __unused, FTSENT *en /* sanity check */ if (isdepth == 0 || /* depth off */ - (ftsoptions & FTS_NOSTAT) || /* not stat()ing */ - !(ftsoptions & FTS_PHYSICAL) || /* physical off */ - (ftsoptions & FTS_LOGICAL)) /* or finally, logical on */ + (ftsoptions & FTS_NOSTAT)) /* not stat()ing */ errx(1, "-delete: insecure options got turned on"); + if (!(ftsoptions & FTS_PHYSICAL) || /* physical off */ + (ftsoptions & FTS_LOGICAL)) /* or finally, logical on */ + errx(1, "-delete: forbidden when symlinks are followed"); + /* Potentially unsafe - do not accept relative paths whatsoever */ if (strchr(entry->fts_accpath, '/') != NULL) errx(1, "-delete: %s: relative path potentially not safe", @@ -462,8 +464,6 @@ c_delete(OPTION *option, char ***argvp _ { ftsoptions &= ~FTS_NOSTAT; /* no optimise */ - ftsoptions |= FTS_PHYSICAL; /* disable -follow */ - ftsoptions &= ~FTS_LOGICAL; /* disable -follow */ isoutput = 1; /* possible output */ isdepth = 1; /* -depth implied */
