902e4d6b8d os: avoid potential out-of-bounds access at logVHdrMessageVerb
The LogVHdrMessageVerb function may access an array out of bounds in a
specific edge case. Specifically, the line:

newline = (buf[len - 1] == '\n');

can result in accessing buf[-1] if len == 0, which is undefined behavior.

Commit adds check to avoid access out of bounds at pointed line.

41ae2e70ad os: Account for bytes to ignore when sharing input buffer
When reading requests from the clients, the input buffer might be shared
and used between different clients.

If a given client sends a full request with non-zero bytes to ignore,
the bytes to ignore may still be non-zero even though the request is
full, in which case the buffer could be shared with another client who's
request will not be processed because of those bytes to ignore, leading
to a possible hang of the other client request.

To avoid the issue, make sure we have zero bytes to ignore left in the
input request when sharing the input buffer with another client.

437a0cad0b os: Do not overflow the integer size with BigRequest
The BigRequest extension allows requests larger than the 16-bit length
limit.

It uses integers for the request length and checks for the size not to
exceed the maxBigRequestSize limit, but does so after translating the
length to integer by multiplying the given size in bytes by 4.

In doing so, it might overflow the integer size limit before actually
checking for the overflow, defeating the purpose of the test.

To avoid the issue, make sure to check that the request size does not
overflow the maxBigRequestSize limit prior to any conversion.

The caller Dispatch() function however expects the return value to be in
bytes, so we cannot just return the converted value in case of error, as
that would also overflow the integer size.

To preserve the existing API, we use a negative value for the X11 error
code BadLength as the function only return positive values, 0 or -1 and
update the caller Dispatch() function to take that case into account to
return the error code to the offending client.

8d9b8249a7 os: Fix NULL pointer dereference
RemoveHost() can be called from DisableLocalHost() with a NULL client,
but doesn't actually check whether the given client pointer is valid on

To avoid the issue, simply check whether the client pointer is not NULL

5620102dfe os: move mitauth prototypes to separate header
The MIT authentication handling isn't really OS specific, and only few sites
actually need to call it, so at least it's prototypes are better off in some
separate header.

8c4a015cc2 os: color: fix possible buffer overflow vulnerability
The old approach of builtin color lookup used a binary search of strings
within text blocks (their start offsets defined in the color array).

This could potentially lead to buffer overflow, if the requested color
name far outreaches the text block (eg. same prefix as some entry near to
the end, but really huge). This alone wouldn't allow remote memory readout
(just comparing), but could possibly trigger page faults (sigsegv) or used
as a building block for some more complex attack.

OTOH, the old approach is also hard to maintain, ugly programming style:
on each change, all the offset need to be carefully recounted, which is
pretty error-prone.

Both problems are solved by moving to simple, per-entry, char* pointers,
instead of the one large text block.

7a010beefe os: oscolor: fix BuiltinColor field naming
The "name" field doesn't actually hold the color's name, but instead the
offset of the name in the string table block. Thus, fix the field's name
to reflect this.
