Hi

The patch libyaml-indent-column-overflow-v2.patch applied for the
update to address CVE-2013-6393 introduces a regression which can be
seen when parsing a small YAML sample file with the tests/run-parser.c
utility:

----cut---------cut---------cut---------cut---------cut---------cut-----
%YAML 1.1
--- # Indented Block
  name: John Smith
  age: 33
--- # Inline Block
{name: John Smith, age: 33}
----cut---------cut---------cut---------cut---------cut---------cut-----

Compiling run-parser.c in the source and run against this YAML file
leads with the patch applied to:

# ./run-parser ./regression.yaml 
[1] Parsing './regression.yaml': FAILURE (9 events)

Upstream indeed has addressed this part slightly different, with [1]
and [2].

 [1] 
https://bitbucket.org/xi/libyaml/commits/f859ed1eb757a3562b98a28a8ce69274bfd4b3f2
 [2] 
https://bitbucket.org/xi/libyaml/commits/af3599437a87162554787c52d8b16eab553f537b

Attached are prepared debdiffs for squeeze and wheezy. For unstable
either the same can be applied or better directly update to 0.1.5
which contains the commits.

Regards,
Salvatore

-Description: CVE-2013-6393: yaml_parser-{un,}roll-indent: fix int overflow in column argument
- This expands upon the original indent column overflow patch from
- comment #12.
- .
- The default parser indention is represented as an indention of -1.
- The original patch only modified the type of the column parameter to
- the roll/unroll functions, changing it from int to size_t to guard
- against integer overflow.  However, there are code paths that call
- yaml_parser_unroll_indent with a column of -1 in order to reset the
- parser back to the initial indention.  Since the column is now of
- type size_t and thus unsigned, passing a column value of -1 caused
- the column to underflow in this case.
- .
- This new patch modifies the roll/unroll functions to handle the -1
- indent as a special case.  In addition, it adds a new function,
- yaml_parser_reset_indent.  It is nearly an exact copy of
- yaml_parser_unroll_indent, except it does not take a column
- parameter.  Instead it unrolls to a literal -1 indention, which does
- not suffer from the underflow.
- .
- Code paths that previously called yaml_parser_unroll_indent with a
- column of -1 are updated to call the new yaml_parser_reset_indent
- function instead.
- .
- With this patch instead of the original:
- .
- - `make check` still passes
- .
- - The reproducer script completes successfully with exit code 0
- .
- - The issue raised by John Haxby has been corrected and exits with SUCCESS
