This fixes the following warning, at least on OpenBSD 4.8:

src/ngircd/irc-info.c:896: warning: strcpy() is almost always misused,

Make sure that all log messages end with a correct punctuation mark.
The rules for formatting log messages are:
1. Add punctuation marks to all messages passed to the actual logging
functions like Log() and LogDebug().
2. Don't add any punctuation marks to messages that are stored in
variables for later use or are passed over the network.
3. IP addresses, DNS host names and IRC server names should be quoted.
4. Messages originating in the network should be quoted (at least if
they are "untrusted" or variable).
Most probably this patch doesn't fix all mistakes, but it should be a
good starting point ...
Now ngIRCd returns a more specific error message for numeric
ERR_NOTREGISTERED(451) when a regular user tries to use a command that
isn't allowed for users but for servers: ERR_NOTREGISTEREDSERVER(451).
Don't report ERR_NEEDMOREPARAMS(461) when a MDOE command with more modes
than nicknames is handled, as well as for channel limit and key changes
without specifying the limit or key parameters.
This is how a lot (all?) other IRC servers behave, including ircd2.11,
InspIRCd, and ircd-seven. And because of clients (tested with Textual and
mIRC) sending bogus MODE commands like "MODE -ooo nick", end-users got the
expected result as well as correct but misleading error messages ...
If ngIRCd is compiled using "strict mode", these errors are still reported.

This patch introduces the new function Conf_SSLInUse() to check when the

This function parses the already read in help text and sends the requested

issues a "HELP <cmd>" command:
1. Search the file for a line "- <cmd>",
2. Output all subsequent lines that start with a TAB (ASCII 9) character
to the client using NOTICE commands, treat lines containing a single "."
after the TAB as empty lines.
3. Break at the first line not starting with a TAB character.
This format allows to have information to each command stored in this file
which will not be sent to an IRC user requesting help which enables us to
have additional annotations stored here which further describe the origin,
implementation details, or limits of the specific command.
A special "Intro" block is returned to the user when the HELP command is
used without a command name.
This new configuration option allows to specify a specially formatted
text file which can be used by the HELP command to provide information
about the commands and their syntaxes.
Only check the channel user modes of the initiator if he is joined to
this channel and not an IRC operator enforcing modes (which requires
the configuration option "OperCanUseMode" to be enabled), because trying
to check channel user modes of a non-member results in this assertion:
Assertion failed: (cl2chan != NULL), function Channel_UserModes,
file channel.c, line 742.

Now ngIRCd uses two fields internally, one to store the "real" hostname
and one to save the "cloaked" hostname. And both fields can be set
independently using the "METADATA host" and "METADATA cloakhost" commands.
This allows "foreign servers" (aka "IRC services") to alter the real and
cloaked hostnames of clients without problems, even when the user itself
issues additional "MODE +x" and "MODE -x" commands.
This fixes a few warnings of this type:
XXX.c: In function 'AAA':
XXX.c:YY: warning: array subscription has type 'char'
Tested on NetBSD 5.0.2 with gcc 4.1.3.
This flag indicates, that the server supports the enhanced "xop channel
user modes", like channel owner, admin, and halfop. This information is
used to make sure that no unsupported CHANINFO commands are sent to
servers not supporting such mode prefixes, for example.
Use "METADATA host" commands to let servers supporting this command
know which (possibly cloaked) hostname is in effect for a specific
client. This prevents "double cloaking" of hostnames and even cloaked
hostnames are in sync on all servers supporting "METADATA" now.
A client for which a METADATA command has been received from one of
its peers got the client flag "M" set. So it's safe to assume that
such a client gets "METADATA host" commands for its cloaked hostname
and the server must not cloak the hostname on its own, even when the
client mode "+x" is set.
The METADATA command can be used by other servers to update "metadata"
of registered clients, like the client info text ("real name"), user
name, and hostname:
:<prefix> METADATA <target> <key> :<value>
It is distributed in the network, unknown <key> names are silently ignored
and passed on, too. This allows for further extensions.
If PredefChannelsOnly is enabled, and if someone tries to create
a channel which does not exist, then the error message is a 474.
The 474 Error message changed recently and does not match anymore:
'Cannot join channel (+b) -- You are banned'.
Changed the error message to numeric 403 'No such channel'.
Bug introduced by commit 9a82304a.
(cherry picked from commit 2c2e08f34187a33c1da745995c5f213e33a91410)
Now NICK commands are always generated using the prefix of the target
user, even when the nickname change has been initiated by some other
(pseudo) server or using the SVSNICK command. In this case, the prefix
of the initiator has been used, but this isn't compatible with clients
(at least weechat and irssi don't handle such NICK commands correctly).
The SVSNICK command allows other servers (and services on
"pseudo-servers") to forcefully change nicknames of remote users.
Syntax: ":<from> SVSNICK <oldnick> <newnick>"
The SVSNICK command itself doesn't change the nickname, but it becomes
forwarded to the server to which the user is connected to. And then this
server initiates the real nickname changing using regular NICK commands.
This allows to still run networks with old servers not supporting the
SVSNICK command, because SVSNICK commands for nicknames on such servers
are silently ignored and don't cause a desync of the network.
This reverts a not intentional code change and fixes the following compiler
warning message (tested with gcc 4.4.5):
irc-server.c: In function "IRC_SERVER":
irc-server.c:142: warning: suggest parentheses around operand of "!"
or change "&" to "&&" or "!" to "~"
Add randomly up to 15 seconds to the reconnect delay for outgoing server
links when the connection has been "short" and therefore the "ConnectRetry"
delay is being enforced.
This should make it even more unlikely that two servers deadlock each
other when both are trying to connect to the other one at the same time,
for example in test environments.
If two servers try to link each other, there was a time frame that
could result in one connection overwriting the other, e. g. the incoming
connection overwriting the status of the outgoing one. And this could
lead to all kind of weirdness (even crashes!) later on.
So now such incoming connections are dropped. But this most probably
prevents the two servers from linking until timing changes somehow
(network latency?) because each server drops the incoming connection of
the other one, so no connection survives in the end.
But this has to be addressed by an other patch ...
This is how ngIRCd up to release 19.2 behaved; "bug" introduced by commit
67e882, "configure.in: require autoconf 2.67 and automake 1.11", which
changed the "PACKAGE_NAME" to "ngIRCd"; so use "PACKAGE" which still is
the lowercase version for initializing syslog logging.
Remote servers are always allowed to change all channel topics,
and IRC Operators are allowed to change all channel topics if the
configuration option "OperCanUseMode" is enabled.
Bug introduced by commit 7b01bb8 and reported by DNS777.
Currntly ngIRCd supports 13 user and 15 channel modes, because there
have been quite a few additions since our last release. But our data
structures can only hold 15 user and -- even worse! -- only 9 channel
modes! So enlarge the buffers to 20 bytes (actually 21 including NULL)
to allow storing of all mode characters and to have some space left
for more modes to come ...

Don't abort on "single user operating systems" that don't know more than
one user account and therefore can't change user and group IDs.
Currently, the only such system supported by ngIRCd is Haiku, a BeOS
clone.
When a user has set mode "b", all private messages and notices to this
user are blocked if they don't originate from a registered user, an IRC Op,
server or service. The originator gets an error numeric sent back in this
case, ERR_CANNOTSENDTONICK_MSG(976), which is/was(?) used by KineIRCd, too.
This closes bug #144.
This error message is not only used if one can not send to a channel
because it is moderated, but for _all_ reasons when a message can not
be delivered (moderated, banned, no external messages, ...), so strip
the "(+m) -- Moderated" part of the error message again.

Closes bug #129.
If the new channel mode "V" is set, the INVITE command becomes invalid
and all clients get the new ERR_NOINVITE_MSG(518) reply.
Unreal and InspIRCd uses this mode, too.

Allow users to "cloak" their hostname only when the configuration
variable "CloakHostModeX" (introduced in 19.2) is set. Otherwise, only
IRC opertators, other servers, and services are allowed to set mode +x.

of the IRC server itself, which confused quite a few people ;-)

This fixes bug #92 "ngircd does not support XOP usermodes".
Starting with GNU automake 1.12, the "de-ANSI-fication support" has been
removed, which ngIRCd used to enable building itself on very old systems.
Now the problem is, that using automake >= 1.12 isn't working because of
the now unsupported M4 macros. Therefore the solution that this patch
implements is to dynamically generate the automake input files with our
own ./autogen.sh script:
configure.ng => configure.in
Makefile.ng => Makefile.am
This is quite an ugly approach, but it works and enables us to:
1. use current automake >= 1.12 for development and "private builds",
2. still build distribution archives using automake 1.11.x that have
"de-ANSI-fication support" enabled in the generated Makefile's.
And if you are using Makefile's generated with a automake version newer
than 1.11.x (without "de-ANSI-fication support"), the ./configure script
warns you not to use this generated build system to generate distribution
archives.
Drawback of this patch: you MUST use our autogen.sh script, you can't call
the autoconf/automake commands directly any more; but autoreconf should
still work ...
With this patch, the SSL subsystem will only be initialized if at least
one SSL ports is configured; so you won't get "SSL initialization failed"
messages if you didn't configured it at all.
And if SSL initialization fails, no SSL listen ports will be enabled
later which never could establish a working SSL connection at all ...

ngIRCd is a long-running process and changes its working directory to "/" to
not block mounted filesystems and the like when running as daemon ("not in the
foreground"); therefore the path to the configuration file must be relative to
"/" (or the chroot() directory), which basically is "not relative", to ensure
that "kill -HUP" and the "REHASH" command work as expected later on.
This fixes parts of bug #127.
It makes no sense to limit the list size when doing WHO for a channel
and not to return all the users in that channel, so I removed the check.
But if there are more than MAX_RPL_WHO(25) replies, the client requesting
the list will be "penalized" one second more (then 2 in total).
This fixes bug #125.

Conn_StartLogin() is called after the connection has been established and
fully innitialized, including the SSL handshake, for example.
Up to this patch, the "NoticeAuth" option broke the SSL handshake ...
This numeric is sent to the client each time it changes its displayed
hostname using "MODE +/-x", and if "CloakHost" is set right after the
MOTD has been sent.
Not only cloak the hostname in Client_MaskCloaked(), but also in
Client_HostnameCloaked() -- so move the actual cloaking to this function
and call it in Client_MaskCloaked() to get the (cloaked) hostname.
This fixes USERHOST not displaying the correctly cloaked hostname,
for example.

The "ServiceMask" variable in "Server" blocks now can handle more than
one mask using the new MatchCaseInsensitiveList() function.
This makes marking "service clients" much more specific, which is a
good thing per se, but which is the prerequisite for reasonably
blocking these nick names, too (see commit a6dd2e3 for details).
This patch introduces the new function Conf_NickIsBlocked() which checks
if a given nick name matches with the "service mask" of a configured server.
And Client_CheckNick() uses this information to deny such names for regular
IRC users.
So nick names intended for IRC services are more protected and can't be used
by regular users even when the "services pseudo-server" isn't connected to
the network.
But please note:
Up to now, there can be only one "ServiceMask" pattern per server, which
most probably blocks much more nick names than really required ...
So "ServiceMask" should allow more than one pattern which can be more
specific, and most probably it should be possible to block nick names in
the global server configuration as well.
Nick names introduced by other servers/services are never restricted.
This is a relatively naive implementation, basically doing the bare minimum
necessary to make the switchover go. Subsequent commits can focus on
improving the implementation.
3 new channel user modes have been added.
Half Op: +h(Prefix: %) can set the channel modes +imntvIbek
and kick all +v and normal users.
Admin: +a(Prefix: &) can set channel modes +imntvIbekoRsz and kick all
+o, +h, +v and normal users.
Owner: +q(Prefix: ~) can set channel modes +imntvIbekoRsz and kick all
+a, +o, +h, +v and normal users
Implemented support for hashed hostnames for CloakHost. The admin can
use '%x' in both the CloakHost and CloakHostModeX setting. The config
option CloakHostModeX was renamed to CloakHostSalt. This salt is used
for both cloaking options.
CloakHostModeX can now contain '%x'. It will be replace by the hash of
the original client hostname. The new config option CloakHostModeXSalt
defines the salt for the hash function. When CloakHostModeXSalt is not
set a random salt will be generated after each server restart.
Spelling fix in defines.h
Don't try to establish an outgoing server link after DNS lookup when this
server re-connected on its own in the meantime.
In addition, log a warning message if we try to update the connection
index of an already connected server structure -- and ignore it.
Up to now, both behaviour could lead to a race when the remote server
connects to this daemon while it still prepares the outgoing connection:
- The local server prepares the new outgoing connection ...
- in the meantime the remote server becomes connected and registered.
- Now the new outgoing connection overwrites the (correct) socket handle,
- then the 2nd connection becomes disconnected: "already registered",
- and the 1st connection becomes unhandled ("gets lost") because the
configuration structure is reset because of the wrong socket handle.
This patch hopefully fixes all these problems.
Only alphanumeric characters are allowed in the user name, so ignore
all IDENT replies that would violate this rule and use the one supplied
by the USER command.
Only alphanumeric characters are allowed in the user name, so terminate
the connection if any "strage" characters have been supplied by the user.
This is how other IRC daemons (like ircd2.11 and ircd-seven) behave ...

This patch implements the core functions to support "IRC Capabilities"
and the IRC "CAP" command as used by other servers and specified here:
<http://www.leeh.co.uk/draft-mitchell-irc-capabilities-02.html>.
It enables ngIRCd to support the defined handshake, but it doesn't
implement any capabilities, so "CAP LS" and "CAP LIST" always return
the empty set and "CAP REQ ..." always fails with "CAP NAK".
Rename Hello_User[_PostAuth] to Login_User[_PostAuth] and move it to the
new login.c; and move cb_Read_Auth_Result(), too. This will enable further
code to easily call Login_User() when required.
Up to now, ngIRCd silently ignored permission denied errors when trying
to enable a chroot setup: only the "not running chrooted" message became
logged later on.
This patch lets ngIRCd exit with a fatal error when the chroot can't
be enabled on startup -- this is the much safer bevahiour!

Start "regular" logging not until the configuration file has been read in
and "SyslolgFacility" is set, and log all configuration errors using the
generic "daemon" facility.
So if there are no configuration errors, logging starts right after parsing
the configuration and we log the configuration file used _after_ reading it.
But this is no problem because every configuration error message includes
the configuration file name as well.
(The "double hello" has been introduced by commit 3641e51109)
Syslog logging has been initialized before reading the configuraton
file, so ngIRCd always used the default facility and ignored the
"SyslogFacility" configuration option.
Thanks to Patrik Schindler for reporting this issue!
This patch updates the limits for handling commands from a remote server:
- "<user count> / 5 + <min>" using "<min>=10" during normal operation,
- the above count multiplied with 5 while servers are syncing.
The intention is to a) make the limit dependent of the number of users
in the network (the more users, the more commands required to sync) and
b) to significantly rise this limit while servers are joining the network
to make the login and synchronization faster.
At the end of sending all "state" to the remote server, a PING command
is sent to request a PONG reply. Until then, no "regual" PING was sent,
so Conn_LastPing(<connection>) is null and now becomes non-null in the
PONG command handler.
So the servers are still synchronizing when Conn_LastPing(<connection>)
is 0, which could easily be tested.
The numeric RPL_WHOISHOST_MSG(378) returns the DNS hostname (if
available) and the IP address of a client in the WHOIS reply.
Only the user itself and local IRC operators get this numeric.
This allows to use "*!<user>@<host>" or "*!*@<host>" masks to reject
clients even before receiving PASS, NICK and USER commands and before
forking authentication child processes which reduces resource usage.
This allows a channel operator to define exception masks that allow users
to join the channel even when a "ban" would match and prevent them from
joining: the exception list (e) overrides the ban list (b).
If the target user of a PRIVMSG or NOTICE command has the user mode 'C'
set, it is required that both sender and receiver are on the same channel.
This prevents private flooding by completely unknown clients.
- Check correct list for duplicates when adding items.
- Don't generate any messages when adding duplicates or removing
non-existing items (this is how ircd-seven and ircu behave).
- Code cleanup: Add_Ban_Invite(), Del_Ban_Invite().
Commit 565523cb allowed processing of further channel names given to the
JOIN command when a single name was invalid.
After this patch, the JOIN command handler continues to process channel
name lists even after errors like "channel is full", "too many channels",
and the like and generates appropriate error messages for all the
channels given by the client.
Limit the MODE command to handle a maximum of MAX_CMODES_ARG (5) channel
modes that require an argument (+Ibkl) per call.
Please note: Further modes that require arguments are silently ignored
and end the handling of any further modes.
This is similar to the behavior of ircd2.11 (silently ignores but seems
to handle other modes) as well as ircd-seven (silently ignores but handles
some(!) other modes) ...
The assert(client != NULL) got triggered during our tests, so there is
an error path that resulted in the connection being still established
(sock >= 0) but the client structure already freed.
So Conn_Write() should handle it!
This reduces the possibility of flooding channels with commands like
"PRIVMSG/NOTICE #a,#n,#c,... :message" a little bit.
Problem noticed by Cahata -- thanks!
Until now, the penalty time has only been set when longer as the
already set one, so it didn't accumulate.
And add documentation for and clean up code in Conn_SetPenalty() and
Conn_ResetPenalty() functions.
This partly closes bug #118. ngIRCd still starts up even when
Server{UID|GID} is invalid: then the daemon falls back to "nobody"
when running with root(0) privileges (as before).
commit 15fec92ed7
(Update list item, if it already exists) can make ngircd
crash because 'Reason' can be NULL, as reported by
Cahata on the ngircd mailing list.
Doesn't affect any released ngircd versions.
Also, make sure that we do not pass NULL as arguments
to a '%s' printf-like function.
When JOIN is received with more than one channel name, don't stop
processing on the first error (e.g. bad name, wrong channel key, ...)
but report an error and continue with the other given channel names.
Reported by Cahata -- thanks!
When "PAMIsOptional" is set, clients not sending a password are still
allowed to connect: they won't become "identified" and keep the "~"
character prepended to their supplied user name.
This fixes two bugs:
- "WHO <nick>" returned nothing at all if the user was "+i"
(reported by Cahata, thanks).
- "WHO <nick|nickmask>" returned channel names instead of "*"
when the user was member of a (visible) channel.
Clean up code and add documentation as well.
Rename Channel_Count() to Channel_CountVisible() and only count channels
that are visible to the requesting client, so the existence of secret
channels is no longer revealed by using LUSERS.
Reported by Cahata -- thanks!
Unknown user and channel modes no longer stop the mode parser, but are
simply ignored. Therefore modes after the unknown one are now handled.
This is how ircd2.10/ircd2.11/ircd-seven behave, at least.
Reported by Cahata -- thanks!
