patch 9.0.2070: [security] disallow setting env in restricted mode Commit: https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/6b89dd6a7257a1e2e9c7ea070b407bc4674a5118 Author: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> Date: Thu Oct 26 22:14:17 2023 +0200 patch 9.0.2070: [security] disallow setting env in restricted mode Problem: [security] disallow setting env in restricted mode Solution: Setting environment variables in restricted mode could potentially be used to execute shell commands. Disallow this. restricted mode: disable allow setting of environment variables Setting environment variables in restricted mode, may have some unwanted consequences. So, for example by setting $GCONV_PATH in restricted mode and then calling the iconv() function, one may be able to execute some unwanted payload, because the `iconv_open()` function internally uses the `$GCONV_PATH` variable to find its conversion data. So let's disable setting environment variables, even so this is no complete protection, since we are not clearing the existing environment. I tried a few ways but wasn't successful :( One could also argue to disable the iconv() function completely in restricted mode, but who knows what other API functions can be influenced by setting some other unrelated environment variables. So let's leave it as it is currently. closes: #13394 See: https://huntr.com/bounties/b0a2eda1-459c-4e36-98e6-0cc7d7faccfe/ Signed-off-by: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org>

INSTALLami.txt - Installation of Vim from source on Amiga and MorphOS

This file contains instructions for compiling Vim. If you already have an
executable version of Vim, you don't need this.

The file "feature.h" can be edited to match your preferences. You can skip
this, then you will get the default behavior as is documented, which should
be fine for most people.

Summary:
make -f Make_ami.mak        gcc
make -f Make_ami.mak CC=vc  vbcc

Please note that currently only gcc has been tested. VBCC would need its own
CFLAGS, but should otherwise work out of the box. For cross-compiling, UNM
can be used to override uname and thereby set the target. An example is shown
below:

make -f Make_ami.mak CC=ppc-morphos-gcc UNM=MorphOS
