dbus-marshal-byteswap: Byte-swap Unix fd indexes if needed
When a D-Bus message includes attached file descriptors, the body of the
message contains unsigned 32-bit indexes pointing into an out-of-band
array of file descriptors. Some D-Bus APIs like GLib's GDBus refer to
these indexes as "handles" for the associated fds (not to be confused
with a Windows HANDLE, which is a kernel object).
The assertion message removed by this commit is arguably correct up to
a point: fd-passing is only reasonable on a local machine, and no known
operating system allows processes of differing endianness even on a
multi-endian ARM or PowerPC CPU, so it makes little sense for the sender
to specify a byte-order that differs from the byte-order of the recipient.
However, this doesn't account for the fact that a malicious sender
doesn't have to restrict itself to only doing things that make sense.
On a system with untrusted local users, a message sender could crash
the system dbus-daemon (a denial of service) by sending a message in
the opposite endianness that contains handles to file descriptors.
Before this commit, if assertions are enabled, attempting to byteswap
a fd index would cleanly crash the message recipient with an assertion
failure. If assertions are disabled, attempting to byteswap a fd index
would silently do nothing without advancing the pointer p, causing the
message's type and the pointer into its contents to go out of sync, which
can result in a subsequent crash (the crash demonstrated by fuzzing was
a use-after-free, but other failure modes might be possible).
In principle we could resolve this by rejecting wrong-endianness messages
from a local sender, but it's actually simpler and less code to treat
wrong-endianness messages as valid and byteswap them.

dbus-server-socket: Make unix:tmpdir equivalent to unix:dir
On Linux, there are two classes of AF_UNIX socket, which D-Bus refers
to as unix:path=... (portable to non-Linux systems) and unix:abstract=...
(not portable).
Back in 2003 when dbus gained support for abstract Unix sockets on Linux,
everyone thought they were better in every way than path-based Unix
sockets: if a DBusServer crashes or is terminated abnormally, there's
no detritus left in the filesystem. What's not to like? As a result,
since commit a70b042f (2003-06-04), when a DBusServer listens on a
unix:tmpdir=... address on Linux, the default is for the result to be
a unix:abstract=... address, with unix:path=... addresses only used on
non-Linux platforms.
However, the world has changed in the last 19 years, and namespace-based
Linux containers (which didn't exist in 2003) are now very popular. This
makes abstract sockets problematic.
Abstract sockets are tied to the network namespace, which is
all-or-nothing: if a container is to access the Internet without using
some sort of proxy or intermediary (like slirp4netns) then it needs to
share the network namespace with the host system, and that implies
sharing all abstract sockets with the host system. If the well-known
session bus is listening on an abstract socket, then it's a sandbox
escape route for any sandboxed or containerized app running under the
same uid. Conversely, if a container is *not* sharing the network
namespace with the host system, then it cannot access a session bus that
is listening on an abstract socket without using some sort of proxy
(like xdg-dbus-proxy), even if it isn't intended to impose a security
boundary and giving it direct access to the session bus would have been
more desirable.
Path-based sockets do not have this problem because they exist in the
filesystem (part of the "everything is a file" Unix philosophy),
allowing mount namespaces and bind-mounts to be used to share or
unshare them selectively.
On systems with `systemd --user` where dbus has been configured with
`--enable-user-session`, in general the session bus will already be
using a path-based socket for the "user bus", disregarding the listening
address specified in /usr/share/dbus-1/session.conf. The default in many
recent Linux distributions is either to use dbus-daemon in this way, or
to use dbus-broker, a reimplementation of the message bus service which
has similar "user bus" behaviour.
However, the <listen> address in session.conf is used when dbus-launch(1)
or dbus-run-session(1) is used to start a session bus, either manually,
via autolaunching, or via system integration glue in operating systems
that are not using `systemd --user`. This will occur particularly often
in operating systems that boot using a non-systemd init system.
Making unix:tmpdir=/tmp equivalent to unix:dir=/tmp ensures that the
well-known session bus listens on a path-based socket, allowing container
and sandboxing frameworks to mediate access to it in the same way they
would for the user bus. The D-Bus Specification already allows (but does
not require) this behaviour, because it is the only thing that was
implementable on non-Linux systems such as *BSD.
This change has the potential to cause regressions. If a container
framework enters a chroot or unshares the mount namespace but does not
unshare the network namespace, and is relying on the ability for a
process inside a container to access the session bus outside the
container via its abstract socket, then that assumption will be broken
by this change. Some use cases of schroot(1) are likely to suffer from
this. However, container frameworks with that assumption would already
have found that it does not hold when using the user bus, and it is
necessary to break that assumption if we want it to be possible to apply
application-level sandboxing in a secure way.
Another potential regression from this change is that if a dbus-daemon
is terminated abnormally, it will leave a socket in /tmp. Distributors
of operating systems where heavy use of dbus-launch(1) is expected might
wish to run dbus-cleanup-sockets(1) periodically.

test/bus: Break up dispatch test into three separate tests
This is really three separate test-cases: one for traditional
activation as a direct child process of the dbus-daemon, and two for
traditional activation (successful and failing) via the setuid
dbus-daemon-launch-helper on Unix.
The ones where activation succeeds extremely slow, as a result of the
instrumentation for simulating malloc() failures combined with a large
number of memory operations, particularly when using AddressSanitizer.
Splitting up "OOM" tests like these has a disproportionately good impact
on the time they take, because the simulated malloc() failure
instrumentation repeats the entire test making the first malloc() fail,
then making the second malloc() fail, and so on. For allocation failures
in the second half of the test, this means we repeat the first half of
the test with no malloc() failures a very large number of times, which
is not a good use of time, because we already tested it successfully.
Even when not using the "OOM" instrumentation, splitting up these tests
lets them run in parallel, which is also a major time saving.
Needless to say, this speeds up testing considerably. On my modern but
unexceptional x86 laptop, in a typical debug build with Meson, the old
dispatch test took just over 21 minutes, which drops to about 40 seconds
each for the new normal-activation and helper-activation tests (and for
most of that time, they're running in parallel, so the wall-clock time
taken for the whole test suite is somewhere around a minute).
In a debug build with Meson, gcc and AddressSanitizer, the old dispatch
test takes longer than my patience will allow, and the new separate
tests take about 5-6 minutes each. Reduce their timeout accordingly, but
not as far as the default for slow tests (5 minutes) to allow some
headroom for AddressSanitizer or slower systems.
The failed-helper-activation test is almost instantaneous, and no longer
needs to be marked as slow.
