Source: monotone Version: 1.0-3 Severity: normal User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: hardening-format-security hardening
the package monotone fails to compile with the new hardened compiler flags dpkg-buildflag outputs [0]. The problematic flag is: -Werror=format-security See the ubuntu buildlog: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/83074600/buildlog_ubuntu-precise-i386.monotone_1.0-3_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz Snippet: g++ -I. -I/usr/include/lua5.1 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -g -O2 -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat -Wformat-security -Werror=format-security -Wall -W -Wno-unused -c -o src/cmd.o src/cmd.cc src/cmd.cc: In member function 'virtual void commands::cmd_manpage::exec(app_state&, const command_id&, const args_vector&) const': src/cmd.cc:977:31: error: format not a string literal and no format arguments [-Werror=format-security] The buildflags are not exported in debian, but can be enabled e.g. by adding this to debian/rules: DPKG_EXPORT_BUILDFLAGS = 1 include /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk Please fix the issues and maybe also enable the hardened build in debian.
