Xvi/ex modeline feature disable patch ... Gil Kloepfer, ICUS Software Systems
X----------------------------------------------------------------------------
X
XThis program and its Makefile are used to disable the modeline feature in
Xvi/ex which can inadvertantly allow malicious users to send "infected" files
Xto privileged users and disrupt system activities.
X
XThe patch is applied by executing the makefile ($ make). The makefile will
Xcompile the patch program, copy the vi editor executable file into your
Xcurrent directory and apply the patch to this copy. You should then make
Xa copy of the original vi editor, and copy the new one over the old one.
X
X # make
X # cp /usr/bin/vi /usr/bin/vi.OLD
X # cp ./vi /usr/bin/vi
X
XThanks to Lenny Tropiano for the makefile. Those who feel more comfortable
Xapplying the patch without any makefiles, the procedure is as follows:
X
X # cc -v -o vifix vifix.c
X # cd /usr/bin
X # cp vi vi.OLD
X # whatever-path/vifix
X
XThe vifix program will inform you if the version of vi you are fixing is
Xsupported by the patch program. Note that this message will also appear if
Xthe patch is already applied.
X
XAny further questions about the patch can be directed to Gil Kloepfer
Xat ...icus!limbic!gil, gil@limbic.UUCP, or gil@icus.islp.ny.us
